the tackle shop in drogheda is in fair green, as you cross the road over the boyne heading out of the center swing left at the lights as you go up the hill then take your first right and the shops there. can't remember its name. he did'nt have any live marine worms last summer. we brought a weeks worth with us down from belfast last year , but you could chance it :? pm me and i'll give you all the marks we fished last summer that produced fish in your general location
