Small boat anglers Richard and Ian Curry had a good day’s tope fishing last weekend. Fishing from Kilkeel, just north of Carlingford Lough the pair were hopeful of success. Despite only being restricted to a short session on what turned out to be a rough enough sea, they they caught and released 4 fine fish, 2 males and 2 females, with the help of their pal Decus.
