North WEXFORD/ South WICKLOW?????????

#1 Post by thompo »

hello

Im heading down to Gorey somewhere near Arklow im told lol for a motorbike race on the 15th.

Were plannnig on going down early on the 14th, fishing for a while then camping out somewhere not too far from Gorey.

Would anyone be able to recommend any marks that could be worth a shot for bass (on plugs/lures preferably) or any decent sized fish (Spurs,Huss,Rays,Conger)? last 10 trips out biggest fish caught has been a half a pound at best! PM's welcome ;)

Also dont suppose anyone would know anywhere you can camp safely and securely either in Gorey, Courtown, Arklow or anywhere else near by?

Cheers for any info :D
