Donabate Beach?

Wed May 19, 2004 2:21 pm

Lads,

Donabate beach....anybody fished it? Any reports?
This is the beach past and to the right of the Waterside Hotel (formerly: Dunes Hotel). Its a very clean beach, but seems a bit on the shallow side.
Kieran has a Shore Mark down for Donabate, but I think its Portrane its refering to.

cheers

Do a search on here, I think there was a thread before about the beach where a young lad caught a 4lbs turbot on his first time fishing.
