cushendun/ salmon rock

Tried to beach fish cushendun in day lite. My advice dont not a thing fish 2 up to tide and 2 after.

Moved to a spot of rocks salmon rock i think it knowen as. And took 20+ wrasse on rog every cast a hit run out of rag not time best about 2 -1/2 lb wish had of had light tackle but only had beachcasters with us.

is salmon rock the wee rocky beach round past the hotel/town houses???

Salmon rocks is in Cushendall, down beside the golf course opposite Limerick point.

Have caught loads of small Wrasse there close in but one at 2 1/2 lb is a good one. If you cast out anything over 50 yrds you should get plenty of flatties with the odd good one showing.

No were the new flats are in cushendun drive round back of them there are two power houses park there go behind first on and onto rocks in front there is a wee lagoon sort of thing just drop at your feet.

Hi all
Have to agree with Lee on this one. Historically the " Salmon Rocks" are as discribed by Lee on the left hand side of Cushendall beach. They are called this because the anchor points for the salmon nets are embedded in them.

only other point to try descibe mark better is that there were 2 caves in the rock face. I hope that helps like i stated iam not sure marks name but it was full of big wrasse.

i know the mark your on about pook, but its 'name' has left me!a mate fished it around this time last year spinning with a greenfish and took a load of pollack and coalies and mackerel.at least we now know of a good alternative mark for those days or nights when the drifting weed can make the beach unfishable.

if you stand were the circle in the rock is cut on the left side you free to spinn on the right were you are droping for wrasse about 20 yrds out there is a group of rocks not seen at high tide so dont spinn there.

Cheers for letting us know, a new mark to try!

Cheers mate.
