Hi Pat, just wondering where you got your rag from if you bought it, Viking?Sandeel can often be decent for codling. Nice to be connecting to some fish anyway.

Sorry :oops: , another question,I know there was usually plenty of activity at night during summer offering decent light but is this place well lit at all during the winter night?

Hi Col, I get the rag in Viking as it is handy for me to get to on the way from Kildare instead of having to go into town. The end of the pier is well lit but the back can be very dark but no problem with a decent headlight. I fish here the odd time in Winter when I need a bit of shelter.
