Mackerel Cork Harbour
Finally got out past Roches Point yesterday. Was hoping to find a few mackerel to keep kids interested for longer! Not a sniff of anything! As a novice to sea angling, any one have any pointers for Cork Harbour (either inner harbour or just outside) fishing? Thanks

Re: Mackerel Cork Harbour
If there are mackerel about you should pick a few just north of No.6 buoy, on the edge of the Turbot Bank.

Finally caught a few between Fair Rock and the oil terminal yesterday. Good few small ones looked like they were chasing around Monkstown too. No big numbers but signs of life!

Re: Mackerel Cork Harbour
Fair play!
The jetty area is always a good bet from here onwards. There is a good showing out in the outer harbour too. The small ones can be a bit of a pain. I seem to be getting the bigger macks down deeper.
