Re: dun laoighaire west pier fishing
pier rods are for catching anglers not fish , and the same goes for bass rods , a beach caster will do both jobsss king fisher orca wrote:no i mean like a beach caster or pier fishing rod

Re: dun laoighaire west pier fishing
it depends what your fishing for and what method you are using. if your spinning or float fishing then a light rod would suit best like a spinning rod, carp rod or salmon rod.
if your bait fishing or using feathers then you will need a beach caster. i wouldnt bother with the pier rods as a previous post said they are there to catch anglers more then fish.
