Sea trout in the main bay (you'll need a licence for that though - NRFB do regular checks). Flatties and dogs of the five finger strand at the mouth of the bay and I've got wrasse from the rocks to the left of the mouth.

Scara does a bit of fishing up there and might be worth sending a pm too.

My first bit of advice would be not to bother..not worth the effert. (somebody will probably tell you other wise)

Location. standing in the carpark you will see rocks to your right climb around these( not too difficult) and you will see a small beach. fish here for trout and flounder. get dogs here sometimes to.

Go onto the http://www.donegal.ie/dcc/gplan/ you can look at aerial photograhy of the beach and the small hidden beach. acually all the coast line.

Hope this helps[/url]

Yep, thanks for that Scara.

Whats the craic with licences for trout? I didnt think you needed a licence if you were fishing (for anything) the in sea...

technically if you intend to keep the fish you need a license.

If your found in possession of a sea trout over 40cm without a tag then your liable to prosecution...it doesn't matter whether your by a river, a lake, the sea or the top of a mountain :lol: .

Interesting.

What if you're just going to release them again?

cant see a problem, but youd be best to check mate and make sure

I had flounder turbot and some nice coalies of around 3lbs in a night session there about 6 weeks ago but i may have just been lucky and got it on a good night.
