Dingle - Kerry - Bass weekend

Great report and photos Eoghan, I'll be heading down there myself at the end of July and I'm already counting down the days, it really is a beautiful spot and you can't beat a pint in Murphys.

Its mad Dave, we have Sept booked and I'm counting weeks already. Cant be good wishing your life away like this...!!
There is just something about the place, love it..!

That picture is actually immense. Anyone who has spent anytime down there would understand.

Brandon is a nice place alright. The locals can be a bit strange
There used be unbelievable fishing there a few years back.
Would not a pint of Murphys looked well outside Murphys

Crackin pint well worth the long journey down to get a pint of that class.

Great bass fishing by the way it's not all about size.


Yappo

Good fishing Eoghan.

That pint picture is the job!

Lad's you'll give me a swelled head about that pic..! Im already a bit of a fathead as it is..!

Couple of people have asked me about Brandon, Im no expert on the area at all but what we have found is that we have caugh more bass at low water, first thing at morning and for the first 3 hours of the rise. We presume theyy run the coast and into the estuary but this is guess work.
Take at look at the area at low water and mark out the gullies, we wait for them to flood a bit and try shallow diving minnows. Can be great..!

The area is completely random though. One evening we turned up at the rocks at 5pm to spin for macks, high tide, sun blazing and start catching Bass to beat the band. I have also fished up to and past high water and on the walk back along the beach have stumbled across bass, 2 hours on the drop.
It can be a frustrating area to fish. Hard to predict. We're fishing it for about 14 years now..! We tend to use it as a base and move around the penninsula from there. We know a good few of the locals at this stage and just love the place..!

Great report and some great sessions. It's nice to go out mackie bashing and catch bass, def worth the trip!!!
