Hi folks, was wondering if anyone has caught turbot in and around Donegal :?:

Im living in Dunkineely but havent been there long..

I have never caught a turbot before so would appreciate any advice and techniques??

I will be out in a week or so fishing for a 2-3 day session... I will post my results..

thanks in advance :D

never had a tubot in donegal - but they are common enough on sligo beaches - Trawee and dunmoran strand throws up a lot - though not of great size - i imagine they must also be about south donegal - sandeel or earthworms tipped with mack have worked for me

Plenty off Culdaff beach though so far I have only caught small ones, best technique is ledgered sand eel.
