Winston's Tope

Graham took this fish which was the heaviest taken by a club member over the course of the weekend  @ 63 pounds its a peach!

Sharkatag 2012

A really busy day for those in the Whithorn area on Sunday.

A cracking example of a Luce Bay Leopard.

The Spurdog were there as well.

Its all good...

The last sight your bait see's before the ratchet sings.

Martin tried to crack a smile but caught his crack in the throttle lever instead.

With things hotting up Gordon took his bunnet off.....about time  Benny

Not sure who has the best dentist ?

Gordon with a nice Tope the reward for a nights kip in the car.

Willie decided to try for a full string of Huss so baited some feathers and took a double shot.

Martin was pleased with this Huss which were abundant when the Tope took a tea break.

Here we find Stuart wrestling with a Tope which is not best pleased to see him and who can blame it!

A total nut job of a Gurnard to be swimming down there on the day in question.

A nice angle in Gordon's picture below.

Kyle McAleese shows his dad and Jamie how its done!

A bumper last day of Sharkatag for some anglers on Sunday with ravenous pack Tope and hungry Huss and some happy anglers making their way home on Sunday night. This was the longest of the fish caught on Sunday by a club member at 180cm ( I think?)

More of a report and pictures to follow.
