Was down there tonight with my 6yr old.
Mac on a reg single flapper for k9's.
Small sliver on a size 8 with split shot close in for tiddlers(6lb line).
One small pollack about the size of a 50 euro note.
Loads of people there with feathers and hokkies(spelling???)
No one catching.

Re: Bally cotton pier Co. Cork.
a friend of a friend 
had 2 macks 2weeks ago. my friend went back with the other day and he said the waves were so big they were hitting the wall and coming up and over and soaking them, they caught nothing. moved onto white bay for a few hours and caught nothing there either.
