Re: torr head
Most importantly dont fish it on your own! Lethal spot esp if the rocks are wet!
You can fish the north side easier than the south as the south is more cliff like. The point can be reached by going down the rope thats secured into the top of the cliff. You can find it by going round the right hand side of the lifeboat lookout and it should be tied to a metal stake somewhere along there. Definetly do not go down that one on your own or on a rising tide as the gulley at the bottom can fill on bigger tides. Best to fish the point from the top of the tide down (rules out any danger from the gulley and gives you a wider arc to fish as the tides going north away from the point) or the north side on a rising.
Rough as hell as you might expect so spinning, float or if your after class sport take the fly rod
Hope this helps

Re: torr head
cracking spot to fish - try for a conger, you'll not be disappointed!!
you can also go round the right hand side. through some fields and fish form a slightly seaward sloping rock face about 20ft up from sea level - appropriate net required!
