a few hitting the rigs on the way back in portacloy - wouldnt be getting the feathers out though, patchy

1 caught from 30 anglers in Ballycotton sunday evening

Nothing from Greystones yet over the weekend, perfect conditions on late tide but nothing showing

Cheers for the update, was talking to the lads who rent the boats in Bullock and they said the macks haven't come in properly yet. Hopefully they'll arrive in numbers!

I was there yesterday for a 3 hours.. 7 mackerel caught for 4 of us.

its desperate this year again im hoping they are just late.

A small number caught today about 1/2 mile off balbriggan

I've just given up trying for them....it's a sad case

bit late but caught 9 over 4 hours Sunday week before last in Wicklow bay (was on a boat but only around 200 yards off the pier).
Hard going but I will say they are very large mack.

Was in killiney today for four or five hours and a few lads up from me were fishing for macs. They spent about 3 hours and drew a blank.

3 small boats out of Balbriggan today had about 50 between them ,didn't see any from the pier though there was 4 lads fishing

4 macks off wicklow harbour today.hard going all the same....

West pier dunlaoghaire tonight nothing

Was opposite Roches point earlier on and there was a large shoal cruising about 15m from the rocks. I wasn't fishing for macks at the time but when i saw them glistening in the water i couldn't help but get out the spinning rod landed about 20 before they moved on. Also if its a sunny weekend evening don't even attempt Cobh or Monkstown etc the piers are absolutely jammers with you know who...

Have just been to cobh , about 10 guys fishing for mackerel only one caught , more fun watching all the tangles
