Frome scraggy you have knockalla (small pollack/Mackeral ) next swilly rock (flatties,pollack mackeral) the brown george (pollack mackeral coalie.some dabs,skate, the lighthouse (pollack,coalie.mackeral,maybe a cod/ling red gurnard,ect) after that if the weather is good you could still do the lime burner, scraggy bay is about 15/20min tow from kerrykeel towards glenvar. on your way back you can leave the boat on a mooring in portsalon subject to availability and that would save you launch and retrive for a few days



You'll have to show Cecil all those marks for the Pollock :lol:

Hi All, thanks for all the information. I think I need a map. Is there a local fishing guide/map available? Cheers Nick
