The best place to fish in april

[junior conger]

I am going away fishing somewhere up the country not sure where the species i would be looking for would be thornbacks or bass or smoothhounds was thinking either galway or wexford it will be the tenth and elevnth of april any tips i am looling for these species bacause i never caught them thanks and pms welcome

[gfkelly1969]

I cant help with the Bass or smoothhounds but the thornbacks I can
if you decide on Galway I can give you a few marks that will produce ray for you,some of the marks have produced over 30 ray in a day

If you were thinking of Galway you could always take a trip down the Clare direction , you should get a good spread of species, if you head the Clare way drop us a pm and we will give you a hand out

Regards

Why would you want to leave Cork

J/k Never really fished outside Cork but I am still amazed by what is on offer in Cork that I have not yet come accross.

This summer I am planning a camping trip to West Cork with my daughter... great fishing down that way, and camping on the beach too.

i think its a great idea to get away and fish different parts of ireland.makes the game more fun,get to see places,meet new people and most of all get ur species on ur list i hope to fish all the irish countines on the coast this year if i can

THink there were some reports from as close as East Cork... mostly from west Waterford....

Although 'technically' you can catch them all around the south coast, they are probably more likely in the colder waters of the East...

I like to swim with them myself, so I can't speak for angling...

I've heard of one. Couldn't tell ya the mark but it was down the west cork direction. Caught on peeler crab. It was one of paul harris's guests that caught it.

Yeh the water temp being a bit warmer down that direction would have something to do with it. Always thought if they were there they would show up as a by catch when fishing for bass with big peeler baits. Good to hear theres been a few caught.

Id believe east Cork close to Waterford but West Cork! Thats a rare catch...

April is still a wee bit early for hounds better fishing should be may to sept.

For bass highly recomended you to go woodstown great beach for bass, and if you willng to drive you could find some spectecular spot too surranding areas,
enjoy your holiday
ps;check tide time -floading tide must

[corbyeire]

hi JC i think you should go to wexford and pick up some smoothies if you can

there is much better sport from these fish than thornies

they are also more specific to april time anyway

the thornies you can have anytime over in connemara with the right gillie

youll also will pick up a few bass while your smoothie hunting which wont happen when your looking for thornies out in connemara

[junior conger]

We were thinking of staying in sean ogs what marks are good around here?

[roger de dodger]

the smoothies where very small in april only pups last year the bigger ones came along in may,but that was last year
sean ogs is a good spot you are right near loads of beaches that should be producing some nice bass by april ,a trip to courtown angling centre will get you some info and nice bait too and if you put up a post the week before i,ll pm you what marks i fish are producing best
