Sandymount Beach? (Might be Sandyford, Can't remember)Dublin

#1 Post by Drew »

Its amazing how such a Pristine looking beach can be so close to the industrial heart of Dublin, Does anyone fish it? What does it Produce?

Also was down at Malahide on Friday Morning thought I saw 2 Anglers on the beach, Any Forum members involved? 8)

Sandymount is what you're thinking of.I have never heard of anyone fishing it,it's mostly used by anglers digging lugworm.When the tide goes out you have to walk miles to get to the sea and when it comes in it's not very deep, If you go around the side over towards the pigeon house you'll come across the Poolbeg lighthouse,this is regularly fished.

prob the best spot on it is either side. blackrock near the rocks or the channel at ringsend. I reckon it is too big and dosnt have all tht many features so the fish r spread out. Bass have been known on the blackrock side of the beach. hope thats of some help
