People myself

Duration 1.15 to 4.45

Tide on way out

Weather good

Bait Blueys/mac:

Rigs two hook flapper/pulley rig

Results 12 flounder/4 dogies




Report went out for a few hours to try out these Blueys, and i am not to fussed on them, they accounted for one dogie only. everything else was got on mac:, from first cast the flounder were coming in fairly steady, after a while everything went very quiet, i changed to a pulley rig and baited it up with Bluey, i put it a good distance out. about ten min: later i got a dogie around the 3lb mark. a few more casts with the Bluey got nothing, switched to the mac: and pulled in four dogies for four casts. don't think i will be buying Blueys again am not fussed on them at all.....so headed for the car an home for the spuds

If you want Bluey get it in Toms Tackle on the Ardlough road. Its far cheaper than Land Sea And Fish and the fish are bigger. Think its around £2.70 for 3 whereas Land Sea and Fish charge around £4.50.
