Plenty of species firsts for anglers down in Courtmacsherry

989

A couple of anglers were in touch to say they had a great time fishing in the Courtmacsherry area recently, where they had a number of species ‘firsts’. Brendan Harvey and his long-time fishing pal Anthony Behan were fishing from both boat and shore on their recent trip and first up was the boat session, where both lads landed their first-ever bull huss, including a nice 12-pounder for Anthony. Anthony also managed to land his first ever conger eel which made it a day to remember.

Next up was a session on the rocks where spinning with lures proved successful for pollack and also landed Harvey his first ever bass. It wasn’t a monster, but it’s always great to get your first one, and there are always bigger ones out there! Needless to say, the lads were thrilled with the fishing and are fired up for their next session.
