These big flounders, doormats they call them. One at the start of the comp and one at the end bringing the drama…. Mariners summer league outing number 2 took place last night and another fine evening as the anglers lined the beach among the sunset walkers. Doormat number one came early on for Declan with a lovely 40cm flounder setting the longest fish bar high.

The fishing was hard going with small numbers of fish but what was caught was quality over quantity flounders mid to late 30’s. John and Pat Cunningham found the flounders with John winning 1st place prize money and Pat winning 2nd place prize on the night and on the last cast of the night lines up Christopher Noctor reeled in a 41cm flounder for longest fish cash prize. Enjoyable night out again and well done to all who fished.
