Kilcoole / Newcastle Beach Advice?

Sat Apr 03, 2010 9:01 am

Hi Lads
Was wondering if anyone had been fishing around Kilcoole and Newcastle and if so where they producing any fish. I was in Newcastle a couple of weeks ago and nothing happening. Was using mack, sand eel, squid and peeler.

Any advice for this area appreciated.

At the moment those beaches would be near unfishable with the big tide and full of weed after the big blow earlier in the week :evil: Go further south would be my advice 8)
