Hi Terry,
We launched from Aghada pier, it is a perfect pier to launch off even in low water but the only prob is you have to be a member of the Tennis club there because its their pier. Think it costs around 70euro, not def. It was Screaming Reels boat that i was on and he is a member.
Think it would only worth it if you were going to make use of it.
Turbot bank it was, just moved around it a bit.
