    Hey JD, good catch. I've never caught anything in the sea (mackerel off the pier don't count :cool: )

    I spent an hour and a half today down the local grand canal, caught 10 small roach, it got too damn hot and they stopped feeding - had to go then though. My hard drive failed so I'm on a new computer, lost all my old images :( , when I have some new ones of my catches I'll postem for people to ridicule :rolleyes: :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,316 ✭✭✭ButcherOfNog


    Thats definately not a Rudd, more like a roach/bream hybrid i think.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 191 ✭✭vibez


    Fair balls JB...

    I was out again last tue, stayed out for the night. fished a newish lake in Cavan very hard to access so had a good feeling about it. it was my first time doing proper course fishing (for roach etc). good day all around caught about 30 roach 10 perch 5 pike, 1 bream, the pikes were only tiny things 3-5 pound. My god we had some job taking out the hooks.

    heres a few pics of the trip....

    My first Bream:

    bream.jpg

    All the gear myself and mate had 2 lug through a mile of uneven marshie land:

    A Decent enough Perch I got while trolling spoons in Blessington last weekend.

    (no Pike although this little fellah made up somewhat)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 191 ✭✭vibez


    dats a cracker of a perch

    fair play ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 200 ✭✭grudgebringer


    Well done, seems like so long since I've seen any perch over 3 inches long. They all died out where I can remember 10 years ago or so they were abundant and quite big too....it's nice to see decent size ones being caught again....none in the canal I fish in at all, I haven't caught one in a long time, last one was probably in Lough Ramor in Cavan, I love 'em, best memory of catching one is catching one on a deadbait when I was fishing for Pike many moons ago in the canal in Clondalkin, he was in or around 3 Ibs, an absolute whopper :eek:

    Some surprise too to be fishing for Pike on deadbait and come up with a Perch!! :D

    Was coarse fishing for perch and roach in wiclow last weekend on a fairly big lake when I got a massive bend in the rod with the below brown trout.

    A great suprise as the stretch is not at all known for trout and I was using maggots.
    Picture quality isn't great as again I was on my own and he was still fairly lively and I wanted him back in the water asap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 649 ✭✭✭inigo


    OK! Dun Laoghaire west pier on 16-09-06.

    1st ever fish I got in the sea was the 2 small ones: imagine how I felt when I got 2 at the same time! I know it's only mackerel, but it felt good!

    An hour or so later I got the bigger one: around 14" and 300g without entrails (with head). It game me some sport: I thought it was the umpteenth time I got tangled in the kelp...:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 570 ✭✭✭stevecrow74


    seeing as everyone is showing mack's... here's 20 mins work with a single hook and float....
    050810165722yq0.th.jpg
    caught through the season last year.. all got used as bait for bigger fish :D:D
    and then there is my first sea trout 7lbs 7oz
    seatroutec0.jpg

    its either quantity or quality with me :D:D:D:D

    Pike caught on a copper spoon last weekend in Mullingar.
    Came like a sack of spuds to the boat though, only started scrapping when she saw the net:)

    Settle a bet lads, as I forgot the scales and my mate blanked he (enviously) puts it at around 8lbs, I say a low double!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,523 ✭✭✭Traumadoc

    A lot of physical effort - only took about 15mins but seemed longer. Had to use one of those supports that you strap on and that the rod fitted into. Muscles ached for a few days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,336 ✭✭✭arctictree


    Here's a 2lb bass I caught at about 8pm this evening at Newtown beach, Ballygarret. Co. Wexford. Caught it on a small rag. We also caught numerous small flat fish and dogfish. Lovely evening overall.

    Steve, I am sure that you entered the Gill tag and recorded the fish in your

    game licence log immediately after the photo was taken ?

    i've been trying to upload both my catches, but the manage attachement screen bombs out everytime.

    The 2 jpegs are 1064KB and 885KB, which shouldn't be a problem.

    Any clues anyone?

    thanks

    thats an incredible pike sir, congrats, and i know you put him straight back in so double congrats. what was he, about 20 pounds?

    btw, off topic, can someone recommend a few good forums for Irish anglers? i know sea angling ireland is great but i'm more interested in fly fishing tbh.
    i'm not very good btw so anyone like to share their favorite sites with me?

    thanks, des.
