you pick up some nice fish sometimes on the east pier a m8 of mine had a monster pollack off it and another m8 of mine had caught a wrasse round half the length of his arm :shock: the funny thing was we where the only ones on the east pier and everyone else was on the west!!! :D yea everyone fishes the west pier and nobody fishes the east but the ting is the east pier throws up better fish!!! im not sure it said on the packet "wiggle ace pearl/black 10 cm 5pcs" i got them off my mate he said they should work and they do! cheers ian :wink:

I like the east pier. A few different marks on it depending what you're after and definitely better than the west pier or balscadden (shudder). A good mix of clean and rough ground. Beware the walkers though. :roll:
Sounds like a good session you had there aaron. Hope to get down there again soon.
