You can't go far wrong with Dun Laoghaire, bring some rag too and try for wrasse, either pier would do. Most kids get into fishing on the piers. Fish inside the harbour close to the wall for the wrasse, you should get plenty of bites to keep a 6 year old interested. Good luck.

i wouldnt my lads 7 and i wouldnt bring him unless i had a straight jacket and a rope greystones southbeach is good for kids and when he gets fed up after half an hour you can fish away while he plays in the sand

arklow south beach is great for kids dont have to cast far and full of small fish that will keep him going for hours
