Landers in Tralee is excelent its near the old court house. Everything is out in the open to view with decent prices to boot.

Many thanks lads will give LAnders a go.Just as a matter of interest is there any tackle shops nearer to Dingle/Cloghane??

Landers is a great shop - I bought my favourite spinning rod in there but if you're looking for a bait shop nearer Dingle town, try asking Bob Moss.
Phone/Fax: 066 9155158 Mobile: 087 2438915 and I am sure he will help you out if at all possible...

Have to disagree with your comment on the area fishing well. I fished here last weekend and had one bass of 4lb and a turbot of about 1lb for 8 hours fishing (despite trying most of the Brandon beaches). I spoke to Bob Moss before the trip and he was pretty negative on the fishing prospects for the next few weeks, at least until the temperature increases slightly.

But then again, you simply dont know how the beaches are going to fish until you get there. Given good surf conditions it's possible they will throw up some good numbers of bass. Flounders should begin to be plentiful on the beaches now, so lug tipped with mackerel or smaller sized sandeels would be your best bet. Both will also take bass, so you are hedging your bets. Razorfish would also be a superb bait if you can get your hands on it.

Hi lads,
Right after 6-7 hours in cloghane area got a bit pi**ed off not even a big bite, then went to Inch strand for a bit of Bass targeting.After all that traveling & cost, we got a big blank, however unlike Dublin/East coast got to admire some of the most beautiful scenery ever & decent few pints with great company, so not a total loss. Thanks lads for all the advice all the same, as I will definitely head back .

Cheers,

Tresher.
