Report:Decided to try kinnego as the fishing switchs off on the normal marks around Culdaff in an Easterly. Kinnego produced the usual result.

Myself + The lads from my fishing club fished Kinnego bay on April 5 th.
Same results as yourself, Very poor fish count
But i got chatting to a local from the area, and he told me that any local anglers that know the best spots never fish the beach.
He said that they would either fish to the far right of the beach around the rocks, There is a wreck a few hundred yards off shore which attract larger fish.
Or there is a pebble beach to the left of the bay, It can be accessed by walking from the car park over the rocks.
All you will catch on Kinnego bay beach is small Turbot or Plaice if you are lucky

Well what about the beach to the left or the rcoks to the right? Anything else on offer?

It looks to me like a beach that would hold bass - I take it I'm well off the mark...?

And the pebble beach is for coalies and flatties.
The man walks the area with his 3 dogs every weekend.
But he likes to chat to anglers.
As we all do! !
Have you ever walked along a beach and seen some people fishing?
Its like a magnet!! ( you catch anything?)

The Beach to the right does fish better, but was catching to much of the easterly wind..................................and there was 8 people camping on the beach.........lets just say the 5 girls where about 25 and were really intrested in fishing........hard to concentrate on what you at when a girl is standing in the surf beside you playing with the sand in her toes.


anyway back to fishing.......I've heard second hand reports of bass being caught....wouldn't bet on it though.
Conditions where against us, promised myself i would put some effert in to this beach find out when and where it does fish.
