You should talk to the misses and get permission to go tomorrow night. With her cousins husband! And both head to Wicklow. You'll need to convince your misses to convince his misses though.

Then you can get a few fish and try out the new reel;)

Plenty of flats about, small strips of mack will do the job, rockling the odd coalie, havent seen a bass in a few months, forget what they look like, fished baltray a few weeks back and there was flounder to 42cms being caught, dont know whats its like lately. Pin still plentiful aswell. Lug will do the job aswell but i find mack working the best the last few months.
