been honest this time of the year unless you want whiting avoid the pier, the pollock will have cleared of and very little cod get caught of it, you will also get small dabs to and few dogs,

greystones, would be a better bet of the south beach

As you're in Dun Laoghaire just jump on the train and go south - Killiney beach is within 15 minutes and Greystones is only about 45 minutes.
