The variety of sea fish off our Cork coast never fails to impress Terry Jackson.  Together with fishing comprados Ross and Sid they boated gurnard, codling, coalfish, mackerel, male cuckoo, female cuckoo, bull-huss, spurdog and skate!

Ross and Terry captured some fine specimen Cuckoo wrasse on off-shore reefs while poor Sid had to contend with most of his wrasse shaking off their hook and getting away. Further out on the deep water anchor was dropped and spurdogs and huss were the target.  Read Terry’s article ‘Terry’s travels a friendly invite’
