leenan pier, leenan beach, buncrana pier, fahan beach are all the easiest places to go mate.

tight lines

try not to use grip leads I have been told that the spikes frighten them off.

I caught one off fenit pier 2 weekends ago :D

its only my third one ever so I'll leave any other advice to more qualified anglers

if you fish fahan beach grip leads are a must!!!i use a long flowing trace to keep your bait away from the gripper, there can be a very strong currant at fahan and without a gripper your bait will just get washed up along the shore...
best bait for fahan...mack tipped off with squid, or sandeel
