Re: the wall monkstown

There's a fine line between fishing and standing on the shore looking like an idiot

Re: the wall monkstown
Well done on the bass, however if people say that "the wall in Monkstown" is fishing bad then it probably is. One swallow doesn't make a summer.

Re: the wall monkstown
The next cast caught me a pouting. Then it just turned dark and I caught 5 dogfish so they used all my bait,so I had to call it a day. It's a quality spot with the right bait.Ashley Hayden wrote:Well done on the Bass, however if people say that "the wall in Monkstown" is fishing bad then it probably is.
