Portnoo at Easter

#1 Post by nobuzz »

Can anyone give me any pointers about marks around Portnoo.

We're going there at Easter for a family holiday and I want to take the rods.

portnoo beach is very good yeah but big crowds during the day, youll get turbot, dog, coalie, flounder etc there. There is great rough ground marks too out past the pier in deep water. rossbeg is good beach beside it too with flounder sea trout and bass. spoilt for choice in that area
