Fishing September/October

I'm out of the country for a while and will be back for a few weeks in September and October. Is Dublin bay still likely to produce any smoothies at that stage or do I need to look elsewhere? Similarly, is it worth trying along Killiney and Shankill for a bass or is it a waste of time? What should I really be focusing my little bit of fishing time on at that stage? Too early for the cod really!

For what it's worth I've caught smoothies in Wexford in late september

I'll certainly be trying to get down there for a trip or two, especially if there's good sport to be had, but I wouldn't mind keeping it a bit more local too, means I can make an argument for a few more sessions!

No doubt they will surely be still around Wicklow/Dublin

Is High Rock at Malahide still worth a try?
