Cork Small Boats Comp

Just got back from the Cork small boats comp that was on last week. We had cracking fishing for most of the 10 days that we were there. We didn't do very well in the comp but had plenty of fish and good laugh. Here's a few picys of the fish we had.

Plenty of Bass


Biggest was 8lb


All the lads on the piss in cork city


I spotted a Basking Shark out there 1 day but the picture isn't very good!


We had 5 trigger fish on practice day but couldn't get 1 on the match days


We had some nice big Red Gurnards


Loads of Ling, you catch these at the same rate that you catch doggys over here!


We had some big whiting up to 2lb


Some nice pollack


Had a megrim 1 day which was a first for me


And here's a beach we fished 1 day when we got blown off. This was the only day we never caught anything,there's a lot to be said for this boat fishing!


We ended up with 15 species miles away from the 28 that won it! We had conger,ling,poorcod,ballans,corkwing,haddock,cuckoo wrasse,doggy,cod,whitng,grey and red gurnard,dabs,megrim,and pollack.We had a few other species on practice days that we couldn't find on match days.

What a fantastic trip and some nice fish well done mate

Fantastic report!!!!!!

A great variety of fish and a few days on the lash with the lads!!!!

Happy Days!!!!
