The borrow was grand the harbour blocks the weed when its blowing south east.. But everywhere else i wouldn't chance.. If it blowing south or southwest I'd say it would be weeded up.. It's hard to judge.!!

thats the burrow. I lived there for about 6 years. great smoothound at the south end of the beach and some ray can be taken at the north end. there is a deep hole half way up the beach which can get all sorts too. i'm thinking of trying the clone strand competition either on saturday evening. just found out about it an hour ago.

Not sure where to go now. too much choice ;)

its looks like south easterly wind from what i've been seeing in forecasts so far. From what i'm told that can mean weed if you're not on a sheltered beach. i'm thinking of heading down myself on saturday. where you thinking of fishing?

Myself and jhcabs are headin down that direction the weekend man. Probably morriscastle or somewhere like that maybe we'll see you around

Sounds like an Orgy. I'm going down that way too, with my two young nephews. Old Bawn/Ballinoulart/Morriscastle.
I believe Ballinoulart fishes better on a dropping tide, however, Morriscastle has a nice chipper. Decisions decisions :lol:
