Killybegs Fishing Trips report…

What a tough day at the office today, the weather was a little worse than forecast was given, but fair play to the lads that put in a tough few hours. However, we got rewarded with a beauty, a nice 530lbs tuna to the boat. This fish stripped a lot of line on the first run, so we knew we had a battle on our hands, but the man in the chair fought him brilliantly in the big swell to get the fish to the boat in good time and condition. Well done lads!

A couple days later we went after tuna again. But what started off as a very promising day, did not end up that way. However, we did have success in getting one small fish of 180lbs at the start of the day. We had no luck then until the tide turned. Soon after we hooked up into a good fish this time, and after a 20 minute fight with about 5mt to go, the fish got a little bit of slack and managed to throw the hook, which is heart breaking…didn’t see much after that. Still an enjoyable day out on the water.

Go Fishing…
