One of the guys from work landed a couple of macs down the rocks north of Largs last week.
Im sure you will get summit, probably only one or two for a gut load of effort though.

they always show early at mackinroys or cloch lighthouse

anybody know if you can fish at McInroes point yet?, last time i was there you couldnt get there for the building works

 

[big-al]

there is no fishing at mcinroys now , the new layout of the place does not leave any room for anglers.

[The Leadhead]

heh shows how long i was there what about the cloch al your into deep water there

 

[big-al]

gave it a wee bash this morning , 3 hrs dragging all sorts of feather and tinsel strings through the water , sore back and arms and no fish to show for it .

ill try again an a couple of weeks.

[dazthehappyhooker]

[big-al]

[ade]

u should of gone to morrisons and got some macckys there then took pics of them

 

[Blenny]

now, now Adeys, that's called cheating.

i was going to buy a couple of bream from the mongers and take them to anster - pretending i'd caught them there! :g: was to be an excellent april fools. :g:


i'm sure you will soon be into them - a high tide and a sunny evening should do it. i remember fishing at Macelroy's Point (sp) one summer - ye gods - it was a total 'nedfest'. i have to say that they were ok even let me squeeze in (and it was a squeeze - about 20 people fishing that 30 metre stretch of rocks). bearing in mind i have an english accent that was no mean feat.

am i right in thinking they take a while longer to reach the east coast!?
