Pollack from Howth

#1 Post by byrnes54 »

Living just down the road from Howth it would save me alot of petrol money if i could add it to my species list from there but anytime I walk by Balscadden people just seem to be constantly fishing for mack.Im just wondering with all the rock marks there would it be a good place to catch Pollack

You will get them at the Bailey lighthouse.

I caught some spinning at the pier and also float fishing rag. Didn't get anything huge though biggest was under a pound. The Bailey probably would be your best bet for a bigger one ;)
