Jim Clohessy took a look at the weather charts last week and realised he was going to be shorebound for a while so he made the most of a brief weather window to cast a few lures in the vicinity of Cork Harbour. Launching his boat from Paddy’s Point he found the pontoon there to be pretty handy in taking the hassle out of getting the boat on the water. He tried a few drifts close to the shore outside the harbour and managed a bass before the wind and tide put the fish off.
Then he went a bit further offshore to some reefs east of Power Heading search of pollack, and the move paid off as he landed some good pollack to 8lb before the weather turned and he had to head for shore.
