    Get out fishing at the right times.
    Learn a few new tricks.
    Capitalise using the old tricks when opportunity knocks.

    Getting out keeps me happy, catching a few fish is a bonus:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,188 ✭✭✭growler


    land a thornback ray (or indeed any kind of ray), have spent far too many hours over recent years fishing for but not catching them that i'm determined to get one this year.

    If I sort that little problem out then i'll move on to getting a bass on the fly.

    if i could break my carp and bream record i would be very happy! catch more pike by spinning


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


    100lbs+ blue shark
    150lbs+ probeagle shark

    either from the shore any size

    25lbs+ tope from the shore

    and a 200yrds cast measured!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 222 ✭✭rpmcmurphy


    Would love a double figure pike on the fly but just cant get past the jacks.

    To catch a whopping brown over the mayfly period would be nice as this is the time when i seem to blank the most!!!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,166 ✭✭✭✭Zzippy


    Double figure salmon would be nice. He'd go back mind, I prefer a grilse for smoking.

    To get a few evenings with the right conditions - warm, humid, feck all breeze, a big buzzer hatch and fish to cast a dry fly to, who cares if you catch a big one, just the experience is great, but its getting the right conditions is the problem.

    A few good days on the mayfly, size immaterial, as long as there are fish coming to the fly.

    Pike on the fly will definitely happen this year, missed a couple already but will definitely give them a go again soon.

    Not to blank in any of our shore comps, and to beat a certain few people - don't care where I finish in the league as long as they don't get bragging rights! :D
