Need some Dun laoghaire info

#1 Post by SeanM »

I've been fishing Dun laoghaire recently catching wrasse and pollock on the float but want to try some bottom fishing . Anyone know what I'd catch apart from dogfish and am I better off fishing the east or west pier?

Yeah I seen 2 being caught last time I fished there. One was an ok size but the other was pam sized :shock: Don't know how it managed to fit a hook in its mouth.
