Derek Schwartau reports on some good shark fishing:

7/8/2019

Hi all, we’ve had a good day so far today with Ballycotton sea adventures aboard the Rebecca C.

 

We successfully landed, tagged and released 9 blue shark for our day and we are currently on our way to Ballycotton pier where we will give our catamaran a quick wash down and change over our gear from shark to mackerel and we are back out again at 6 o clock with parents and kids for 2.5 hours to hopefully get a few bites and show the next generation of fisherman or woman what it’s all about.
