[People: Myself & Dave
Duration: 19:30-00:00
Tide: HW 22:00ish!
Weather: Very calm, clear skies & mild
Bait: Rag, peeler & Mack. Lures - Kilty ,Dexter & sprat
Rigs: 2 hook flappers & running ledger
Results: Me - nada , Dave - one micro flounder
Report:
Not much to report here, except that my quest for my first bass continues. I'm starting to think that they are a mythical fish !!
Tried all baits in close and far - no joy. Also did some spinning to no avail.
Was still good to get out as it was a great evening/night weather wise.
anyone know if this beach & Ennereilly fish better on the flood or ebb?
Anyway onwards & upwards. will try a different mark next time, as I aint been having much joy down this next of the woods and I need to catch something soon or herself will
revoke my fishing pass indefinitely!
later,
Steve

well the calm weather didnt help, that mark always fishes better with a bit of surf

There are bass around dublin for sure, but the marks tend to be very tide dependant.
I'll forward you on a few pm's I've sent to a few local lads recently with a few spots.
I'm heading up to laytown this evening with 2 others from the site if you want to join us.
I've only fished the beach 3 times last year myself and didnt get a bass, but I know lads that have done well there before so its worth a shot.
