Shane Redmond has been getting some great tope fishing from his own boat this year. He’s been lucky enough to find plenty of them all through the year. The females came earlier in the year but there’s a good run of the bigger males around now.

When Shane is out it’s generally a family affair with brother Alan and nephew Mark making up the crew. On a recent trip they had junior member Kyle Leonard onboard. Fishing of the coast of north County Dublin they had some great fish to the boat. Nearly all the tope fell to a pollack rigged flapper style.
