Mark Gannon from Courtmacsherry Angling reports that a Dutch group led by Bob de Huis and accompanied by Jan and Willem had a great week’s fishing from Courtmacsherry. This group had to cancel a previous booking due to the pandemic so it’s great to hear they were back to Courtmacsherry again.
The conditions for their week were excellent with light winds. The group had great sport on light tackle with pollack to 10 lbs and good conger fishing at anchor.
When the tides were slack Seán skipper of the Lady Louise anchored on an inshore wreck and the fishing was superb with 35 ling to 22lbs, 30 Conger to 30 lbs with a good few pollack gilling.
Small boats and shore
Self drives are doing well inshore with a client from Cork having a great session on dabs and thornbacks and bass fishing is also producing some nice fish. From the shore reports of Giltheads from Burren pier with Bass and flounder also appearing.
The weather has deteriorated for the next while so we await for another good spell to get offshore.
