I'm not from the area but I'd say Slob bank is worth a shot for decent flounder and the "occasional" bass, but you'd want crab for bait though.

Locals may give you a few better marks.

used to to go ferry point a few years ago, you'd be looking back over at youghal from there. Never tried to fish from the beaches.
