Results:me, 2 mackeral,1 lsd, 6 whiting
big mick, 1 lsd
Report:Went digging lug at Sandymount and as big mick was out at Greystones and i had the rods in the car i decided to join him. He was set up at the rocks near the harbour and had been there an hour or two when i arrived. All was quiet he said with no bites so far. He had mack fillets from Dunnes and i had lug and a mack caught on Sunday night and put in the freezer. I cast out a two hook flapper baited with lug, tipped with mack, and while watching the rod tip i tried a few casts with a lure. This was taken by a mack almost immediately to Big Micks surprise
Good sport on the light rod. I got another mack on the two hook flapper as i reeled it in, 2 nil to Dave,,,,the pressure was on Big Mick. For once his luck let him down as i caught fish after fish. Next came a double of a doggie and a whiting,,4 -nil,,,then he got a rattle which turned out to be a doggie for him. I finally proved to him that the whole mack was better than the fillets
Final score was 9-1 to me
