Clonakilty?

#1 Post by ronanohal »

Hey everyone. I'm heading down to Clonakilty in a couple of weeks for a weekend of fishing. I'm meeting up with my cousin, dad and uncle, all of whom have very limited sea fishing experience. Anyone have any ideas of a few spots to try float fishing for wrasse or pollack with relatively easy access? Gonna try for a few bass too from the beaches. Will be based in Inchydoney. I've been told it's not possible to get rag down that way so will have to bring my own. Is this true?

Thanks Lumpy. Will be heading down for the weekend of the 22nd for a couple of days. Going to bring a selection of spinning rods for the pollack and wrasse and a couple of beachcasters for a night session for the bass I reckon. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
