One great thing about fishing out of the Carrigaholt area is the availability of shelter when it’s too windy to get out offshore. The Shannon estuary provides a safe option and plenty of good fishing too. Luke Aston, skipper of the Clare Dragoon, availed of the sheltered estuary on a windy day this week and put his anglers over some quality double figure thornback ray. Bull huss were also on the prowl for fresh baits too.
On another day in the estuary they also had a nice tope to the boat.
They did manage to get out west on other days, with good reef fishing providing penty of sport. Pollack, coalfish and spurdogs up to 17lbs provided great entertainment. While reef fishing, it would have been rude no to put a shark rod out, and this paid off too, with some good blue shark brought to the boat as well.
Go fishing…
