Saturday night marked the first leg of the Carrick Beach Rockers Masters. The venue was Limerick Rover, with boundaries set from Salmon Rock to the rocks at the back of Waterfoot Pier. A total of 15 members attended, along with 2 guests and 2 juniors. Fishing took place for an hour and a half on the ebb tide, with the remainder on the flood. Weather conditions were poor, with constant rain, hailstones, and a strong south-westerly wind. Despite this, a good variety of species were caught, including flounder, dab, cod, whiting, coalie, rockling, dogfish, and plaice.
