Drop me a PM if you want any info on plugging the area. Best of luck. If nothing else just sitting there with a pint is bliss.

Re: Kerry - Brandon - 27 Bass...!
Sure you can, saw people do it before. As long as you clean up after yourself then any locals wouldhnt have a prob I would say. There is a drive down to the beach so you could bring the car right up if you wish. Its close to the end of the beach and back on the road over to brandon that you take the turn off. Check google maps, would be easier to see. Just dont put tent on the beach as some tides flood right up to the river and past and swamp the area. Best tide is at low water, in that hour before sunrise. If you dont have one within 15 mins they are not there in numbers. But still worth trying up to about 30 mins after sunrise. We have caught bass there all times of day and tides but these are the best.

Re: Kerry - Brandon - 27 Bass...!
No probs, forgot to say also you can get em 3 or 4 hours after high water on their way back out of the estuary. This can be sporadic though as they tend to run the brandon beaches on their way out rather than around by Brandon way. Bit its definitly worth a go. Worth looking at Fermoyle or Stradbally 2-4 hours on the drop. Again if ye dont get em within an hour or so just move on. Im not a fan of the beaches as they are so vast and the bass can be feeding on fermoyle and ignore Stradbally, Gowlane etc.......God i've just realised Im drooling again........
