Re: killary fjord ray
Fish Little Killary to the southwest of the main Killary. Clean bottom and almost guaranteed ray at this time of year. The main Killary is very deep, very snaggy, and a tackle graveyard.
			
			
									
						Its called fishing, not catching. If it was called catching it wouldn't be fishing!

Re: killary fjord ray
its true what bradan said about The main Killary,i asked about the fjord before,see viewtopic.php?f=1&t=21020&hilit=killary+fjord
lettergesh might be worth trying as well viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21739&hilit=Lettergesh
if you are going to be near clifden i will tell you how to get to my mark which produces ray any time i fish,its a spot you can get ray at most stages of the tide and the only bait you need is a bit of mackerel,most of the ray are 4 to 5lbs biggest i got was 8 lbs,if you are interested in trying it let me know
