Shore marks suitable for kids - Donegal / North Coast

Thu Jun 29, 2017 3:22 pm

I've a nephew coming from Scotland in a couple of weeks and he's been plaguing his parents to go fishing.

Can anyone recommend some child friendly marks in either Donegal or along N. Coast that would have a decent chance of fish?

Thanks

Donegal is huge so an area would narrow it down. Rathmullan pier plenty of rays

as you may well know, the best 'child' friendly mark would probably be a pier. it all depends on just how young he is and to what type of mark (pier, beach, rock) you are prepared to take him to.. regarding safety and ability

regarding the north coast, there are a few piers to choose from but being assured of catching fish is another story!.. :)
portrush pier? - expect small dab, coley, pollack and a few other small things. maybe something decent who knows. its usually sheltered and can be busy, but it might keep him happy

good advice there from rushnaldo, a few rays should have him happy from rathmullan pier
