*waves to crowd*

West part of dingle peninsula isn't really my area of expertise but try Inch or the annascaul estuary with lugs and fresh mackeral.

it looks like a good place for plugging on the right of the esturary you can get into fairly deep water on the on the right hand side.
you might get White trout or bass.

the kerry lads are too sneaky to put in reports.

if you are going for wrasse bait should not be a problem as the place is covered in limpets

just get bob mosses book to get a few spots in the area

Hi,
I returned from a 10 day trip to dingle on Sunday , and whilst the weather was great the fishing was not so good.My friend and I had several Thornbacks fishing below the Dingle lighthouse.Couple of stingray to 20lb together with small undulates and thornbacks from the camp/derrymore beaches.Mackerel were not a problem until the very warm and settled period towards the end of our stay , then it was a struggle to catch enough for bait , which I have never encountered before.The pollock fishing was very poor largest only 4lb.Wrasse to 4lb from Dunmore and slea heads.Dingle harbour for the usual congers and mini species.we tried Inch twice and didnt stay due to the huge amount of weed.Hope this helps.
