Clare Dragoon

Luke Aston had a couple of days fishing in the Shannon Estuary last week due to the weather. Mackerel were scarce enough, but they managed enough bait to pick up some nice thornback ray. Tope were elusive though, a no show on the day.

And another good ray

The weather picked up over the weekend, with lovely weather and mackerel more plentiful, some nice fish were caught but the drift was slow with the light winds. Even bull huss were caught on the drift.

Lady Gwen II

Sean Maguire, skippering the Lady Gwen II, has aso been out with a group from Dublin, and they enjoyed excellent fishing. There were plenty of mackerel and scad so bait was sorted early, then they picked up a good variety of species including good whiting, codling, ling and a few others, before going for the big ones.
