A very busy week for Stefan Martin from Killybegs Mariners SAC fishing around Donegal Bay…
June 10th: The 1st of the Mariners 6 outing summer league was held last night in Glen as 9 anglers fished a dead calm beach which threw up some lovely fish early on as the tide filled into the bay most of the fish were caught at this stage. There was a few double shots of flounders and flounder trout doubles and a lovely 30cm turbot for Michael. A fine flounder of 38cm took the longest fish prize for Johnny Byrne and a lovely fishing along with it took the most points prize also for Johnny, well done to all
Also on the 11th of June Stefan tells us; We gathered the leftover mackerel from last night’s league outing and conjured up some chum and went to the mouth of the river in the harbour for a mullet bash for a few hours and as usual I blanked and Christy got two nice hard scrapping fish hard to whack.
Sunday June 12th: Club chairman Michael McGettigan took a few members out for a few drops on the sand on his charter boat Fiona Tee and on a beautiful day on Donegal Bay the 3 rods had over 30 rays and flatties and pollack etc drifting the sand banks a fantastic way to pass a few hours.
Monday June 13th: Well known charter skipper Enda O’ Callaghan bought his own pleasure boat and is back in action doing what he loves best, catching fish, enjoy retirement.
Tuesday June 14th: Went walkabout with just the lure rod and a landing net along the shore covered a few miles and found some lovely marks chucking in soft plastics on 10 gram hto cone leads, a beautiful way to fish wandering the shore all to yourself a some real hard fighting pollack crash diving into the kelp beds mighty sport.
