Mark Gannon of Courtmacsherry Angling reports on the week’s angling:

We had  Ben Boere and friends from Holland back with us again this year on board the Lady Louise skippered by Sean Maxwell. The first day the lads arrived, they had a nice morning spinning for pollack on the inshore reefs while at anchor. They also had many congers up to 30 pounds and 2 nice common skate for Ben Boere, and Hans van Ommen.

We had great shark fishing the following day with 16 blue shark to the boat after hooking 20, biggest fish was 90 pounds caught by Danny van Dinteren.
Headed south to the offshore wrecks on Thursday, where we had excellent fishing after getting 40 ling with a specimen of 32 lbs was the fish of the day caught by Henk!
On the inshore scene, dabs & thornbacks off Blind Strand with bass to 6 lb were reported from the self-drives.
