West coast clubs are back in action with club leagues well underway. Corrane SAC held the second leg of their club competition on Whitestrand beach, south of Louisburgh at the weekend. The weather was quite blustery, with a few showers thrown in for good measure.
Fishing was slow at times with only the odd fish making an appearance.
Bundles of seaweed were constantly moving up and down the beach which made bait placement difficult, wondering to keep the rods out far and high or in very close.
In-between patches, Shane Gilvarry picked out a lovely 34cm flounder at the start and continued steady throughout the session with 5 fish which brought him soaring to first place , even if he was late on the beach!
