Stan Ryan of Borough SAC sent us in this report from the club’s recent competition off the east and south east coasts fishing with Wicklow Boat Charters:
Fishing down South was frantic. On Sunday alone, tope, bull huss, ray, smoothhound and dogfish were caught. A total of 75 fish were caught between five anglers. Fishing up North yielded one good tope, loads of dogfish and some smoothound.
The icing on the cake was a smoothie, 124cm long, caught by Graham Garvey who is on the Irish international team. To put the size of this fish in context, the biggest specimen Irish smoothhound caught by well known Dublin angler, John Hughes, was 124.5cm long and weighed 26.5lb.
Thanks to Kit Dunne and fellow skipper, Anthony, for a great weekend.
