Tope arrive in big numbers to Wicklow while Wicklow Boat Charter’s groups take a few Specimen Smooth Hounds in among the Big boys.
After growing numbers in June the Tope finally arrive in their packs, on a few recent trips to deep water marks Kit’s groups have landed as many as 14 Tope in a 2 Hour session. Among the catches of Tope came Bull Huss and a steady flow of Grey Gurnards over 1lb weight.
Jim Walsh’s crew landed a few fine tope then finished off their evening with a fine Specimen Smooth Hound of nearly 8lb on an inshore mark. Shane O Dea and Anthony Morris treated Mr Morris Senior to a Birthday feast of Tope action when they landed 14 Tope in a short session last week and Geoff Hammond’s crew bagged a few big ones with David Baileys 37lb fish winning the pool. While David’s mate Geoff Hammond leads the Wicklow boat Charters Most Species Competition 2014 with 8 species so far.
Our Cork visitors from the Carrigaline SAC enjoyed a fantastic Tope day with 12 landed, followed by a day at the Hounds, while Paul Darcy’s Rusty Hooks SAC had a great day on Hounds, Huss and Thornback Ray topped off by a 104cm long specimen Smooth Hound for Martin Wilson. Well done !
Fishing the deep waters of 40Metres plus we have capitalised on a window of opportunity, waiting for Neaps is now a thing of the past as we pin point the optimum time and capitalise on a short window of opportunity.
