Kilcummin, Mayo

#1 Post by mikado »

I fished Cummin back strand last Friday but caught nothing, not even a bite! I fished off the rocks, which look realy good, probably better when it warms up a bit.
This mark looks great for pollack and wrasse with the possibility of flatties off the strand below.
Fished low water to high at 7pm.

Is there any one else that knows this place and info on how it should be fished.
I even walked along to French landing, but hells fire it was far too high for me.
I'd love to have had a go at fishing off the cliff tops but I didn't dare let go of the fence behind me!
