Galway / Clare Beginner

Hello I am very new to sea fishing.
I have been trying to catch mackeral recently and driving from oranmore Galway to blackhead but have caught nothing.

Every time I went no one was catching anything and bank was full of people trying.

Anyone able to give a closer location or a location that would be better would really like to finally catch a fish after all my times trying.

Hi im also new to sea fishing and from kilcolgan. Ive found blackhead very hit and miss but fanore beach off rocks to south good for pollack and if u go to ballyryan about 5k south of fanore lots mackerell there hr before high tide and 2hrs after

I'll have to head to fanore. Haven't got a mackerel yet.
