James Kelly, Mark Elders and Daniel O’Kelly had some great shark fishing early this week at Kinsale, fishing aboard the Silver Dawn. Mike Dennehy and James Walsh put in a lot of effort to make sure it was a good day and 9 sharks were brought to the boat  by the 3 anglers.

Daniel had biggest blue at 111lb,  his biggest fish ever. The weight was worked out using one of the standard formula for weighing sharks: (Girth x Girth x Length)/800

 Measured at a length of 184cm, which is 72.44in and with a girth of 35in you get 110.92lbs.
