Got some nice fish down the wall today

Fished monkstown today had 27 codling all around 28-40 cm. its getting a bit better.

Great result mate time to start organising a trip down.

will put up a pic later of the two biggest codling.

nice one seahbah, i was beginning to get worried at the lack of cod showing up but looks like its on the up

There two of the codling caught down the wall, all roughly the same size. not huge but its a improvment on what was being caught and i seems mussel is doing the job for the bigger fish not crab . Plenty of lovely whiting there though at the minute.

Fished the wall Monday afternoon from high tide to 3hrs down using crab and mackerel. Plenty of codling and whiting but all pretty small and nothing worth keeping.......I don't think it's really worth the trip at the mo....

Anything much showing yet lads? Trying to decide on a location that gives me the best chance of a couple of cod from the shore. I have one nights pass to fish and don't want to waste it hitting the wrong spot. It's going to be youghal, monkstown or waterford I reckon. Any ideas?

wel waterford is a wash out cuz d rain have seen a few fish gettn caught in yaul monkstown is very quiet tho

i fished an east cork beach during the week and there was a lot of weed about. huge balls of it every few casts so keep clear till after santas gone home id say.

Anyone heading down to the wall xmas day ?Iv been down the last two years and there is always a few people about.

Fished monkstown today had lot codling around 30-40 cm, some nice whiting too. Crab and razor are good

Hopefully the drop in temp will bring a few cid to light .. Youghals litterally a cod free zone atm

Almost forgot about this topic

Garryvoe the stream last Saturday night, 3 hours with fresh crab,lug and frozen razor two 20cm cod

Just saw on fishing in Ireland website that there was a 11lb and 14lber caught on boats around the harbour in the last few days

Fished the bridge in youghal today frozen crab and fresh lug not a nibble small weed .. Nothing major

Fished the bridge in youghal today frozen crab and fresh lug not a nibble

With the amount of fresh water coming down the Blackwater you didn't have a hope - every salt water fish will have been pushed well out into the bay. It will need about a week of fairly dry weather before there will be a chance of catching anything around there.

Hi all, was going to hit Monkstown at the weekend but all the rain that fell put paid to that plan, reckoned it would be futile.
Was wondering how much dry weather would be needed after a wet spell like we're having now before the fish would start to show again?

Cheers,

Hey short circuit check out the above post by rockhunter....... You wont go far wrong with his advice. If I were you I would be looking to a surrounding beach on the incomming tide when the blackwater is in flood.
