Weather forecast was good over the weekend, noted this during the week so the target was a Plaice or two with the potential to a add a few more species to the club's ongoing species hunt.
I headed down to a mark near Portpatrick to hook up with Will and Shane. These lads are keen and love their fishing so much so they were down there on the Saturday night had a session and had slept in the car. Will was duly rewarded with a hard to get fish . In fact so much so it would be pretty difficult to target,not impossible, just very difficult- Spotted Ray !
Baits were crab,worm, mackerel strip and squid. To be honest the fishing was difficult and the mark fished much slower than we would expect. I had a bit of nightmare with aborted bites, missed bites and a nice Plaice dropping off as I lifted it out. Anyway another species knocked off for me and two for Will, good banter and a few fish to boot.
