Killybegs harbour itself is not great. Only macks and very few at that.

You need to get out further, there are some rocks out at the headland that will produce BIG pollock and as many macks as you can carry.

you can have good crack fishing for the mullet from that pier, apart from that its not a great spot.
as anthony2carr said the headland is a better spot, there are some very good rock marks all around that area that fish very well,
some very good conger to be had off some of them marks.
as ole rab c said " see me' see the sea' i love the sea me"
