Report: After a few years away from sea fishing I finally made a return. Headed off home to Wexford having tuned my reels in the fields of Kilkenny.

I fished both sessions at the same mark at a leisurely pace, fishing at distance. On the first night I took a lovely smooth hound who used the tide well and put up a great fight. A second smooth hound followed and then I called it an evening.

On the Monday night I fished again at range while and I set up an old rod for my brother to give bait fishing a go. He caught a nice little bass on his first cast, which was returned unharmed. I followed with a lovely another lovely smooth hound minutes later. 3 more followed before I packed up.

Incidentally there were lots of guys spinning for mackerel but only a few isolated specimens were caught.

All in all a decent few nights and Im delighted to be back on the sea.
