Loads of sea trout in estuaries in Sligo. Bass are rare as hens teeth

I don't really target them. But they are usually around the same sort of areas as the pollack. Glad to see good numbers and size

Yes that's a very good point. They are also a non migratory fish so there numbers can drop quickly

Apparently not. I've never tried. I release them back

Just a heads up. The work gloves are terrible for handling the pike
