Greystones 1st July

#1 Post by FintanMorrisson »

People:Myself & Mcgarvatron

Duration: 20.00 - 23.30

Tide: HT 00.30

Weather: Mild, a few showers, sea rough enough

Bait: Feathers, Spinners, Mackerel

Rigs: Various

Results: 4 Macs, 1 Dog

Catch and Release:: Yes/No, dog went back



Report: Fished Greystones south beach. Foul hooked a Mac on the first cast! Thought then that we’d be in for a mountain of em but only ended up with 4 after about an hour or so of spinning & using feathers. Fished with mac then after that & was a bit quiet. Loads of weed which didn’t help at all. Eventually got into a dog which put up a hell of a fight for the size of the thing. Enjoyable session & a good cure for the hangover if nothing else!
Entries now open for the All Ireland Shore Cod Championships on November 29th hosted by Sea Angling Ireland SAC

what part of the south where u on fintan its often worth the walk to ballyganon (rocks between greystones and kilcoole) good spot for spinning and feathering (throws up the odd bass) nice to get a few macs from the beach the harbour is to dangerous with feathers and 3 oz sinkers going in all directions :shock: god bless em :D
