waterfoot beach/pier?

#1 Post by minty »

well lads its been a while since i've been on here or out fishing for that matter and was just wondering if anyone had any info on how waterfoot is fishing? it's been a year or 2 since i get a line wet and hoped to ease myself back in to a mark i used to fish at quite often. hoping to get out this weekend if the tides suit. any info would be great.
some times catching crabs is a good thing.........or is it...........?

ach stranger, how's the form man?
hope all is well. i'd give red bay a miss man and venture more northernly to ballycastle. we fished just round the corner from waterfoot on sunday and there was still more fresh water down there than sea water. still that peaty colour man which renders it useless for fishing. 7 hours between us for 2 dab was dire :cry: :cry:
hope you get into some fish minty and if you want any more info send me a txt man.
all the best,
Al.
