james,
to the left of the car park is o.k. cast 40/60 meter.
i,ve been fishin 1 mile to the left, round the mini headland you can see from the c.p.
theres a track down to the beach its on the coast road about 1/2 mile before the left turn for ballyvoile.
i tryed a "fish calculator" to get the weights.
the 1 kept was 19x11 it weighed 3.2oz.
going by the "fish calculater" 19x11=3.4oz. pretty close
scale readings =6/7 years old
