If you find the Couchmans Inn pub near dublin Airport it's a right turn at the roundabout from there(or left if coming from the north), theres always a sign on the roundabout that directs you straight to it so you shouldn't have any trouble! If it's in the same place it's usually in that is!

i think everything u will ever need 4 fishin..at a good price..plus new innovations im sure... its meant 2 b cheaply priced decent gear!!!

I have found that there's not a lot on offer for the sea angler, although there are a few stalls with some gear. Tony's tackle was by far the best last year. It's more coase and game equipment.

There are plenty of boats on show as well for the boat anglers.

It's an excellent place to pick up waterproofs and Neoprene waders and such. I managed to get a pair for Neoprene waders for €50 last year.

It's a good place for braid and bulk hooks and stuff like that.

Beware though, there is quite a few stalls that sell pure shite. Just lots uf useless crap.

I'll be there myself this year, would be afraid I'd miss a bargin. :wink:
