here is the link to article S.I. No. 368/2007 — Bass Fishing Conservation Bye-Law No. 826 of 2007 Noel, http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/2007/en/si/0368.html but it doesn't state the time, suppose it's from midnight to midnight.

cheers pat,we will be in kerry from the 13th -19th and we will be targeting bass,odvousily from the 16th now,so we will be fishing for the other species till then,any recommendations on areas to target wrasse,pollock,gilthead bream,or anything else,would be very well recieved,not looking for secret marks,just areas,pms will be welcome.
