Gear

Took the train down to Dún Laoghaire today to try catch another new species for my sea angling clubs species hunt, mainly had pouting in mind, also was expecting a few mackerel and I did get a few! I put little strips of mackerel on the feathers out to try get the pouting but got nothing but a tonne of pin whiting!

Catch summary: 2 Mackerel, 10 Whiting
