mate , the best bait this time of year for the codling, will be crab down that way,, as far as finding the pier you wont miss were to fish when you get there belive me, it will be full 8) , fish all avenues and distances, have had em at distance and under your nose,
good luck with it let us know how you get on,

couple of easy marks....

-coaldocks (aka Greens Quay) - fish either end of pier depending on tide and if theres space - this is a working port so may be a boat in - there is one in this weekend and pier is full of timber so space is limited - as said crab for the cod - mack strips for whiting - 20-30yds lob will have u in the fish - cast further to get into main channel but not much out there

Greenpark = slightly further up the road and easier to get into deeper water - same baits etc here

Cross the harbour for...

Ferrypoint - u have this covered already

Monatrea - fish to left of house - small clearing in the rough ground will see some fish including bass - best one hr b4 and after high tide

Further round coat are

Caliso Bay - snaggy bar one spot - can be hit n miss here

Whiting Bay - much the same type of fare as Caliso but not as snaggy

Goat Island - fish in daylight only if u dont know the area!!! - major doggie bashing to be had here

Ardmore Harbour - fish the pier for variety of fish incl whiting/cod/dogs and odd ray

Ballyquin - one of the best marks out there - crab is a waste of time - fresh lug all the way will see flounder/bass/whiting/rockling/coalies - big casts may get ray on a fish bait

Hope some of this is of use

john.
