Some members of the Lough Swilly Sea Angling Club organised a species day for a bit of competitive fun recently. They spent the day with Saoira Mara Charters and decided to try a Bluemouth mark to target a few of the brightly coloured little fish. And the skipper put them right on the fish, with everyone getting at least one bluemouth, with one lucky angler getting seven. #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item1 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/768284780_122226260174375277_1524367648647567137_n-1-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item2 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/770562168_122226260516375277_1828985822876989537_n-1-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item3 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/768310240_122226260426375277_7256891263718242286_n-1-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item4 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/768310227_122226260384375277_2153472568926391940_n-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item5 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/770801904_122226260216375277_2995585394733339831_n-1-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item6 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/768452625_122226260606375277_9145199319235832549_n-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } #td_uid_6_6a87caebdaeac .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item7 { background: url(https://fishinginireland.info/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/771795558_122226260132375277_7454208375000795133_n-80x60.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat; } 1 of 7 The guys managed 19 varieties in total, with Chris Tickner having the most on 14.
