Dug some fresh rag and collected some fresh peelers this afternoon to try a spot in Portrane that has been recommended to me for bass on many occasions. It's the small beach behind the holiday park in Portrane! Only when I got there I remembered there's a pack of seals that live here and they like to put on a show, so I thought there was no chance of a fish this evening, but on the last cast I reeled in a small shore rockling, and I had a whiting on the other rod so I was happy out I got some points for the species hunt I'm taking part in this year.
Catch summary: 1 rockling, 1 whiting
