Hi thought id try and get out a bit more this summer, been a while since I fished ( 5 years), living in Northern Ireland. How easy is it to buy live bait these days? Thinking of Antrim coast, maybe the occasional trip to donegal?

Chris.

hello and welcome to the site.. u will pick up alot from this site.. you dig lug from the shore.. just look for the cast in the sand at low water... most people (me included) buy there rag.. u can get it from belfast angling centre or tight lines...
