50 to 80 yards should be ok but depends on beach. Iv'e caught a good few at ennereilly but I reckon the best beach is tinnebearna {about 3 miles past kilmucridge heading south}. Fish to the left of the stream.There's a sandbar about 50 yards offshore try and cast just over it. If the smoothies are not co-operating drop a big bait short of the sandbar for bass .
