Kayaking among the mussel farming

While I was fishing Heather was enjoying our fine fall weather kayaking and enjoying the views of Bantry Bay and the mountains of the Beara Peninsula from the water. Our friends Guy and Clare left their kayaks with us since we are right on the bay, and we have the inflatable boat with outboard of our landlords the Kilroys for fishing. Almost has me started thinking about a sailboat ......

Mackeral for dinner
Mike
10/14/2009, Eagle Point, Bantry Bay

We skipped summer here this year with one gale after another, but our fall has been fantastic and it is finally calm enough to do some mackeral fishing just out Ballylickey Bay where we live. The mackeral are in and easy to catch. We grill them over carbon vegetal, a type of charcoal from Spain that is hot and lasts forever, within a few hours of catching them. some veggies from the garden and it's a free meal - almost. There is always the wine, although this bottle was given to us by a friend with a B&B that brings over wine by the case from France on the ferry in her car. The big one was our dinner, the two little ones we gave to the Kilroys, our landlord.
