Dublin help

#1 Post by MC »

right lads the daughter is going to the Taylor Swift concert this June so I will have a few hours to kill while waiting on it to end. Planning on taking my spinning gear and doing a few hours of fishing, so here it is the question, is there any marks around Dublin thats good for spinning? of course I dont expect any secret marks to be divulged but at least point me in the right direction please

Hi mc
The South Bull wall is near Aviva and has parking. Chance of macks bass pollock seatrout. Mostly bait fishing done there but spining and feathers too. Killiney beach is a bit of a drive but can be good too.
Dunlaoghaire piers , Coliemore harbour in Dalkey all can produce .Check out older posts . Hope this helps.

Seeing as you'll be in the area - you could try the river dodder - get license for 10 euro in Henrys and a light spinning rod.

If you are leaving the big kit at home, the bandstand at Dun Laoghaire is home to a huge variety of mini species to ragworm on LRF kit
