Kit Dunne from Wicklow Boat Charters reports on good fishing for bullhuss, smoothhounds and tope:

Friday saw John Kirwan’s crew boat 16 Tope with 14 good Huss.

On Saturday John Ó Brien and Sons managed 7 Tope, 3 Huss and Hounds to 1 meter any time they dropped a crab bait. An evening trip with Dan Finlay saw 3 Huss to the boat but no big tope. The deeps are producing small numbers of Tope but big when you do get one.

Darren Gray’s group had 10 Tope by 2pm, and 5 Huss, longest 110cm. The day was topped by a 40lb specimen for Robbie.

We’re gearing up for the big Tope now, and hopefully a few Spur.

Go fishing…
