Some fish showing further south than Wexford - Waterford and Cork - Had some fishing with my brother during the week with fish taking soft lures, white Lucky craft shads.

Sometimes when its like this you can get a population of a smaller sized fish on the North Wexford bass marks and in Waterford Cork areas.

Of course they are always to be caught further west....
