Ardglass co. Down Sunday 09/03/2012

Bait Mack and prawn

2 hook Flapper and single hook on float

Results loads of crabs



Will first day out this year, was a lovely day the harbour was peaceful and the tide high. Started around 1.30 pm and fished to about 6.00 pm. After an hour or so and several crabs later I realised that there were no fish to be had, I should have moved over to the rocks but to be honest it was so nice just being there and I was having such fun with the crabs I stayed put. Ah well a blank but it was only the first day out but I hope that it's not a sign of things to come.

Hard luck on the blank but as u said lovely to be out
Give a man a fire he will be warm for a night,
Set him on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life.
