back-track the posts on here to get some results!
welcome to sai! tightlines by the way!
i fish dublin but pop down to wexford now and again.
tides, winds, times all need to be tried and repeated, and repeated! oh! don't forget the moon phases, they make a big difference too. it all depends what yer fishing for too!
wicklow fishes well off the pier and beach, wexford is huge, local advice needed here!

That's really helpful :roll: Try Ennereilly just before Arklow or Arklow south beach. These will fish well as it's getting dark. Check your tides here http://easytide.ukho.gov.uk/EASYTIDE/Ea ... ortID=0611

Or if you want to go a bit further south Courtown might be worth a shot. If you call into Courtown Angling they will give you a heads up on where is fishing good at the moment. As Rusty said locals know best.
