Donal Kennedy, skipper of the “Leah”, reported that weather during July had been very mixed with northerly winds being most problematic as Killala Bay gives almost no shelter. However, Donal managed to provide his clients with quality fishing knowing his fishing grounds so well.
Members of the Larne & District Club had two fantastic days fishing on the 21st and 22nd of July with a phenomenal 23 species caught.
Only recently, a party of local anglers enjoyed a day’s fishing aboard “Leah” catching numerous rays up to double figures and returned alive. As the day progressed, whiting, red gurnard, tub gurnard, more rays (4 species) along with some lovely brill, turbot, plaice and dabs were landed; all in all a total of 12 species were caught. The rays caught were thornback, cuckoo, blonde and spotted.
