Was down off camden fort across from roches point last week off the rocks . The weed situation is quiet good Just avoid high tide around the old pier its a waste of lures.

Southerly winds causing a mass of weed building up on most locations between roaches point and ballycotton and from ballycotton on to knockadoon all last week, I was hoping if anybody was out since sunday in any of those areas have an update some of the beaches were knee deep in kelp
