monkstown

fished monkstown today blank again

Happens to us all from time to time.

I was fishing it aswell today from 12 to 2 got a few small ones its fishing very poor at the moment

Fished it on Sat 16TH arrived after high water and fished the ebb.

The weather was better than the fishing . Well catching 30cm whiting and 30cm to 40cm cod every cast can become monotonous.


I have my own way for the cod down here, 9 out of 10 times they hook themselves so it’s just a case of letting them out there for a few minutes on the hook to tire themselves out then they’re ready to be reeled in with no screaming and shouting about it
Fished from 13:30 to 15:30 aprox reeled in once without a fish.

Went there with 10 crab gave 2 to wrice before I left, he’s heading there tomorrow.


Best cod about 3lb.

a friend of mine fished there last week and again yesterday around low water with crab. he said the same about almost a fish a cast except his biggest was just over 4lbs last week and about 3lbs yesterday. will be there myself durin the week i think.

similar for me during the week, lots of cod when the tide starts going. up to about 3lb and I hit some whiting and a flounder too

Fished the Green patch Sunday evening for just over 2 hours....Codling every cast except one which resulted in a lobster....which was returned. Codling were upto 2.5lbs

Some poor fella got set up just after dusk only to find his headlamp was knackered so had one cast an went home.

What was alarming was some fella walking his dog who reckoned the area had been netted early Sunday morning!!!!

where can i get crab?
