Flounder Spots near Cork?

#1 Post by zoolio »

Hi All,

I try to catch some flounders, but since a few weeks no luck.
Anyone of you has a tip for a good spot? Between Clonakilty and Ardmore?


Thanks,
Zoltan

Flounder fishing is still on the slow side and will not pick up until mid april.
Any where in the Youghal estuary with crab as bait will get you plenty.
