LISTOWEL/BALLYBUNION AREA

Im working down in listowel next tuesday for a couple of days lads and was going to bring the rods was just wondering if there is any decent marks around the areas. Im going digging for lug and should have a few peelers aswell.dont mind driving a bit if needs be. :lol: :lol:

you could try Beal strand the ballybunion end. there is a car park that you can fish beside your car it has produced for me in the past.

best of luck

Thanks brian just wondering do you drive down a bit of a hill to get to that carpark,i think i may have looked at it before but the tideline was nearly 200 meters from it where you park

this might help skip. you where right about the tide try get there about 2 hours before and 2 hours after with lug and crab

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

high tide that is :wink:

fairplay brian appreciate the info,what sort of species can i expect this time of year and would you have any info on the tides for tuesday :?: THANKS AGAIN :lol:

I'm not sure about the tide ill try and find out for you.

id say you have a good chance of a few flounder, coalfish, whiting and I've caught bass there in late November you never know your luck you might just hook in to one :!: :!:

Hi

Check out the January edition of Irish Angler, I've done a piece on all the marks from Tarbert west through Beal and Littor Strands and on to the Cashen Estuary in Ballybunion. The one I did not include was Kerry Head which is a rock mark and particularly dangerous if you are not familiar with it, in any event this time of the year it might be a bit early for pollack.

Species for beal strand would be flounder and dabs close in, whiting on calm evenings, dogs, the odd decent bull huss at night, strap congers, with the possibility of rays at distance. Odds and sods including weavers possible. Dunno about bass in mid winter, might find one in a big surf?

FWIW

hi skip , the nearest tide time i could find was for carrigolt , should be much the same as its on the opposite side of the estuary,
hw is 04.54 4.5m - 17.21 4.3m
lw is 11.06 0.9m - 23.15 1.1m

I've fished beal strand but only low water and that what the lads do as well. Normaly cast small baits as far as I can. Clean ground but though work bringing fish over the sand banks. There'd only be a surf here with a northerly and not much of one as it's inside the estuary facing querin. I've heard of bass been caught during the summer from littor. You could try carrig west on most states of tide except when the tide is running on springs for huss and dogs close in and all variey of fish usually a little further out.

thanks lads i will let yous know how i get on :lol:

wish i had something to report lads but the place was in the myths of a hurricane whilst i was there.I checked out those marks yous recommended and they all definetly looked fishy.Got talking to a local who put me wide to a couple of bass marks which i hope to fish next time im down,anyways i've peelers to freeze down :cry:

that's a pity skip always next time. like you said you got a few bass marks that you can share with me :D

Listowel is not that far from ballyheige Banna I you are around at low tide you could try the cashestuary for bass

You are 30-40 minutes from fenit haven't fished it since before christmas so I don't know how its going

that's a pity skip always next time. like you said you got a few bass marks that you can share with me :D

no probs if you want them maks brian,from what the bloke was telling me they are fairly productive on the right tides
