The bay is awash with the stuff - it's so bad it's even washed onto the footpath on the strand road in sandymount :roll:

Dublin bay, North Shore. Bull island un fishable all along the beach including at statue on the breakwater, even at distance it only takes minutes before your weighed down with the stuff. The Tolka Estuary side is gin clear. But no fish

From what I've read I'm pretty sure it fishes better on the Baltray side man, and weather has been decent the last few days so you might be ok on the weed front :D
