Skipper Luke Aston was happy to report the first sixgill shark of the season last Friday. Luke says “This was just a last minute booking with Callum in the country for just a couple of days and he gave me a call. I always say it takes a bit of effort to catch a Sixgill but this lad got lucky, and although it was on the smaller size of what we have caught here it was still an impressive fish and we where hooked up within 2 hours of being on the mark.”
Saturday was a lovely day on the sea, and produced some good fishing for the time of year, with good pollack and coalie fishing, and a few mackerel.
Then yesterday it was time for an early tope session – earlier than Luke normally sees them. Luke: “I’m not sure we have tried so early for tope before but the lads out today wanted to give it a go. So after a few hours at Loop head where we had plenty of coalfish and pollack, and had plenty of mackerel in the bait box, we headed back to the estuary. And the lads were rewarded with some nice fish to the boat. There seemed to be a good sign of tope around.”
Go fishing…
