People:Myself and the Brother and his young lad

Duration:5pm-8.30pm

Tide:rising

Weather:flat calm

Bait:Razor, Lug, Mackerel and Crab

Rigs:Flappers

Results: Plenty of small whiting and a nice Rockling




Report:Just to pass a few hours without the hassle of a long drive, we fished the high-rock in Portmarnock.
The whiting seemed to be there in numbers, sadly all between 20-25cm, but kept the rods constantly knocking. Only decent fish of the night went to Adam with a nice plump Rockling of
34 cm (Well done young man). Nice relaxing session to start the year.
