    Where do they go?

    in Sea Fishing

    Posted · Edited by 10 brownie points

    I have a OSM 404 boat which is my baby, and I love it very much suit’s my fishing :D easily transported great when sea or pike fishing, but now I am after buying 2 stainless steel flush mounted rod holders,

    what I need to know is what are the rules I should abide by when fitting these to the boat? Position, angle and any other helpful hints.

    All advise greatly accepted. B)

    Guy's

    I am shortly going to the USA for a holiday and the last time I was over I managed to visit a Basspro shop (talk about a selection, I was in heaven) if they had shops like that here in Ireland I would take the wife shopping a lot more often. anyway that's getting away from the subject matter ....

     

    where I am going there happens to be similar fishing shops and I was thinking of treating myself to something like a fish finder as they appear to be very good value for money compared to this side of the pond.

     

    I have a 15" O'Sullivan which I use for lake and sea fishing it is a open boat.

    (and at last I get to the question)

     

    Can someone give me advise as to which system I should be thinking of buying (vast array available) ...?

    I am thinking of something around $200 .....

    Some of the systems I am looking at are Humminbird 565, Eagle Fishmark 320 or the Lowrance X96 all advise welcome?????

    A very mild winter, of which the tail end was dry, the dry spell continued through spring and on into summer and now the tail end of the summer the rivers have been very coloured for the last number of weeks, Any studies on what effect these mixed up seasons are gong to have on the wild river brown trout???

    Welcome Al

    After reading all that .... stuff above ahhmmmmm ..

    The answer to your question above is yes there are a number of us Irish on here,

    it down to you if you want to call us normal (I am from Limerick (so be careful)).

    I got to give credit where credit is due not all the Brits are boring (It's just the English on here and that's just post EURO CUP blues) .....

    Where are you from?

    Where and what do you fish?

     

    Oh bye the way Kieran, I like the Kilkenny joke ....

    so who has cracked it, who here has the perfect job which allows you to be in doors during bad weather but when it is fine it is a requirement that you have to be out in the countryside/seaside, as I am stuck in the office this fine weather looking out at all that sunshine and I know that one of you out there as the best of both worlds ...

    Fly or feather

    in Fly Fishing

    Posted

    As I have mentioned a number of times before here my local river is very small but great fun to fish, but this year I have only had one chance to fish it so far but I was planning to make some time this week. Yesterday while passing I took a look in and I wasn't very surprised to see how low the water levels are, the river now is made up of pools and very low water running in between.

    Is this a good time to fish it or would I be better to load up the sea fishing rods and feather traces take a few mackerel down on the bridges of Ross or castle cliffs on the west coast of Clare. :confused: :confused: :confused:

    All suggestions welcome ..

    The English should have adopted the same approach to sports that we did here in Ireland when we invented games (e.g. hurling, gaelic football etc) we kept them to ourselves and we always know that we are the best in the world at them.

    While you went and invented these games gave them to the world and now get hammered regularly and will only occasionally, very occasionally see silverware.

    But will always believe that you have the god given right to be the best in the world because you invented the game and but for a few mishaps, ill luck, or cheating opposition you always just miss out.....
