There should be a few pollack around the long pier by now towards the end of it on float fished rag or mackerel strip cast seaward. Another 2 - 3 weeks the first mackerel start to show in patchy numbers around the area too.

Fished on the pier a few times last year,once around this time and twice around August time,fishing was very poor,not even a bite,there was 1 Mackerel caught in August,thats about it.It's not like it was years ago,especially where the Macks are concerned,next time I'm out that way I'll go to Balscadden.
A bad day fishing is better than a good day at the office!
