Sorry dude don't know of anywhere about Dublin, but I have been buying flies from this crowd on the net for years.
Have a good look around as they have fly categories for species we don't have but the flies would and have worked for plenty of our species. Tha Bass flies in Pike And Bass are there fresh water Bass but look in the Bone fish, Permit and tarpon sections.
Look at some of the crab flies I've caught wrasse on them tight up against the rock on deep marks.
All the best,

Baumanns in Stillorgan have some flies and they are ok price around €2 I think there are more expensives ones as well (better tied). Decievers, Clouser Minnows, poppers and gurglers tpye flies are good. Any kind of flashy fly will work for Mackeral Bass would be a bit more choosy. Have a look at Lumpys fly database http://www.sea-angling-ireland.org/bull ... php?t=9338 . Hope that helps.
