somebody like myself wants their first bass. carlingford lough would be less of a travel for u drew. plenty of bass and sea trout there. i have to get down soon. anyway heard someone say before that benone starts to fish really well in september. i'm sure one of the locals will clarify this.

Whats the chances of a Turbot here at this time of year? And what tactics would be best for them?
