good stuff big liam, i have always been the same, drove straight past ballygally but always liked the look of the place. good to hear someone give it a go and produced the goods. as u say u can vary between fishing the beach or having the rocks close by to fish off. i will be giving this place a crack before long, i'm just glad u sent a report in to give me that extra push. was the plaice any size?

it was a good days fishing it has its quite times ballygally its hit and miss most of the time but it just shows you guys there is fish there. i fished the beach one night and blanked it maybe this is just me but i THINK that if you are going to get a big tide that would be the place to be 3.4 something like that maybe even a 3.0 . i might take a ride down on my mountain bike with my spinning rod see what the crack is tomorrow spinning it bring a float and one or two rigs for back up i will let you know how i do i might even head to glenarm if the weather is good its only another 5 miles :)

Second village after Larne on Coast Road heading North.

Big Castle/Hotel in the middle of the village, beach in front of it.

You will have driven through it at some stage Stephen...

Sounds like an additive to me, something you may mix with rag or lug to enhance the flavour, maybe i'm totally off the mark.
