hi,
there seems to be a few lads fishing around the blackrock sandymount area lately, in fact maybe one of them will give you the exact location!! then again they will probably do the usual thing and tell you nothing or a different location or you might not even get a reply!
where ever you go i hope you catch a huge bass and DONT forget if you take a picture make sure you rub out the backround :wink: like all the other sad'os

Brianbru, I presume this comment is aimed at me, given a lack of reports from the dublin area recently.

hi,
there seems to be a few lads fishing around the blackrock sandymount area lately, in fact maybe one of them will give you the exact location!! then again they will probably do the usual thing and tell you nothing or a different location or you might not even get a reply!

I thought long and hard about this post before deciding to take the bait (pardon the pun) and reply.

I am no sado and take offence to this type of generalisation regarding my character. You dont know me, so should'nt be so immature to make such comments. Furthermore, after posting recent reports of catching bass around Dublin, I have replied to any requests I recieved regarding help with such marks.

However, surely part of angling is about getting out there, putting in the work and trying different locations, tides, tactics etc. We shouldnt expect to be spoon-fed this info by devine right !!! But a few pointers can be no bad thing.

Indeed I had tried a particular spot last year, its a decent 40minute walk to the mark, but it produced my 1st ever bass, a double shot actually. Nobody had told me about this place or how to fish it. But in my opnion based on my very limited knowledge at the time, I though it looked fishy and should produce. I fished it 3 times last year, and got 2 bass for my trouble....atleast I was off the mark with the species.

If it wasnt for the help and advice of many site members I wouldnt have half the knowledge about our beloved sport that I now do. I only started my sea angling last year, and my learning curve has been steep thanks to site members. I am extremely thankful for this.

However, we also have to respect the fact that many good marks have been passed onto us by other anglers, and it sometimes isnt right to share this info with all and sundry.

If your comments were not aimed at me, then please accept my apology.

I only started fishing last year and i'm still crap :oops: the little bit I do know is down to the kind people on this site who have helped me on things such as which rod and reel and marks here in Dublin Achill and Waterford. Shamoo0804 only gave me a Bass mark on monday thanks Mark :?
