Nice one Rab.

Have often thought of giving this beach a blast but never got round to it :( .

I realise that it is a small beach but is there any particular part that fishes better than the other i.e in front of the Ballygalley Hotel, the middle section or close to the rocks at the opposite end?

As a matter of interest, not that long ago I noticed a guy fishing from a small unmarked layby just off the main road past the Half Way House. I don't know if he caught much, if anything but this was the first time I had spotted somebody fishing outside of what would be known as the regular marks along the Coast Road.

Are you aware of any or have you fished any other "unusual" marks along the Coast Road say between Drains Bay and Carnlough?
