Hi Ghost,

Check the shore mark section of this site, it will give you a guideline on how to fish each area. Alternatively, give Dougie from Flying Tackle Portrush a ring and he will let you know how the area is fishing.

Might be heading up that direction myself tomorrow so if I go will post a shore report to give you an idea how its going.

What you going fishing for and when are you going? Day or night?

Lee
Even a bad days fishing is better than working.

hi ghost, i fished ramore head last week for an hour and got 5 mackerel on spinners... myself and 3 mates fished the blue pool from 9am untill 3pm on sunday and got only 1 fish between us, but the sea was very still and it was low water. if you are going to fish at dusk i would guess u will catch fish at ramore head and the bluepool no probbs.

cheers for the info lads but unfortunatly the plan has changed. have 2 work most of the wkend so portrush is on hold. probably just head up the antrim coast. the joys of work!
