Fishing in latter half of July has returned to normal. Fairly good fishing at the Limeburner with the usual species, Grey,Red &Tub Gurnards, Haddock, Cod, Whiting, Spurdog, LSD etc. (few Haddock, Cod & Whiting but some). Mackeral are now abundant and water temp is 14.5 – 15 Centigrade.
Blue Shark still have not shown – another Charter boat spent 1 day looking.
Tope are inconsistent – some days 4 runs and others 20 or 30 runs.
Rays are good and flatfish also. Wrecks fishing well although no more Torsk. No Scad so far – last year there were a few around even in June.
The Rosguill boated its first Common Skate of 2007 – Female of 144 pounds – lost another run on same day.

Very nice Brill from Tory Island

Big Ling and happy angler

First Blue Shark of the season was landed by another charter boat from Downings on 28 July 2007
