You were at one last weekend, Mark. Ballinoulart is supposed to be a popular nudist spot. Although I can't say I've ever felt over dressed there ...

Find of the year Mark, excellent link. I'm now understanding why I've been losing so much gear on seemingly clean marks!!

after a look I was wondering if you are allowed to fish off the fahan marina as it looks like a good spot for thorneback rays with that deep channel?

MC, fahan is well known mark for thornback fishing in the north west, some fish from the marina wall into the channel over high water and then from the beach over low water, the tow can be pretty fierce here sometimes with 6/7 0z gemini leads with uptide inserts being required to hold bottom, somedays a 4oz bomb even holds, just depends on conditions and tides, the amount of use by marina boats can be a pain sometimes though, many guys have had lines hit and cut etc by boats over the years, so dont leave your rod and pay attention to oncoming boat traffic, april to september are the peak times here.

a trick to avoid boats snaring your line is to slide a 1 ounce bomd down your line after you've cast out. works a treat!
