Killybegs Mariners report…

Mariners league outing number 7 in Mullaghmore on Halloween night turned out to be a great night’s fishing with a good weather window as fireworks cracked the still horizon all around the bay and flatties attacked the baits from start to finish on the filling tide.

A few anglers had doubles and singles from the off and there were 5 species of bass, coley, flounder, trout and whiting including treble hauls of flounder for Shane and Darren, a treble of trout and flounder for Chris who had a huge flounder of 41cm also.

A huge 41cm flounder for Chris Whyte on his way to 2nd on the night

Longest flattie prize was won by John Cunningham with a 32cm flounder.

2nd place with 10 flounder, whiting and trout for 367pts was Chris Whyte.

And 1st place reeling in fish most cast for the 4 hours with 14 flounders over our minimum 20cm size was won by Darren Rawdon

Well done to all. A great night’s fishing!

Flounder for Darren
Bass for Daragh McGuinness

Elsewhere, our club member Proinnsias had some fine bass and flounders on the beach making the most of the dark evenings enjoying the fishing.
