Skipper of the Silver Dawn, David Edwards was out at the weekend. Sharks were very thin on the ground but there were plenty of other species available when they were able to avoid the red tide, which is bloooming off the coast at the moment.

Joey had the biggest Blue, Robbie, the biggest Whiting and Ger had the biggest Ling. A number of the whiting were making 2lbs – lovely fishing. Dave had set up a rod to fish size 11 Sabikis with a tiny sliver of mackerel

They also had a lost and tired UK racing pigeon take a spin back to Courtmacsherry with them and a few Willow Warblers resting onboard as they were just too tired to make it on the final leg of their migration from Africa to Ireland.

Go fishing…
