yeah i thought that myself, a bit early, but the guys were saying that ( as you mention the weed) they need to cast past this weed, sounded as though someone has been there and did this..

Every beach in Kerry in covered is weed. Tried to fish one last night but was beaten back by the weed. :) :)

Not the best conditions for bass at the moment with the South Easterlies, there is not much surf running either.

I really doubt if bass can be catch in Dingle at this time. Nevertheless if I catch any - let you know :)

:shock: I thought that netting for bass is forbidden?

Yup, that's validated. No bass in Dingle at the moment. None yesterday and none today. :( Guess we still need to wait about 5 or 6 weeks, how do you recon?
