Hi guys a few of us are heading to kilcar at the end of march, and I was wondering what species we could fish for.

Any help will be appreciated.

Many thanks Ryan

That's a pretty impressive tally of species, considering the time of year!

Am a novice myself, only getting back into it after a very long time. It's very addictive. We will have to get out for a session soon
