G's mark, Co limerick, 21st of may 2012 #fishirl

People: Me
Duration: 6:20pm until 9:50pm

Tide: 19:07 4.7m 01:05 0.8m

Weather: Westerly wind and pleasant conditions#

Bait: Mack, Eel, squid, black wrap

Rigs: one rod with 3 hook scratching flappers size 4 hooks fluoro etc
one rod at distance with an up and over eel wrapped in squid

Results:
  1 ray and 3 dabs
Report:

As usual here I fished close in for dabs and small fish while I waited for ray at distance. I sometimes can have 20 or 30 dabs here which is great fun as they bite hard for small fish and fish to eating size can be caught here. They have a preference for wrap tipped with mack but tonight it was a quiet with a few missed bites and only a whiting and a flounder caught close in.

Around 9pm I had a slack line bite and it produced the ray below. This was followed shortly after to a fish with a bigger struggle that locked up and was lost on a snag. After that a another bite at distance that produced a dog. Disappointing in some ways as this is a double figure fish mark but a pleasant enough evening.
