Several fish over 4lb from Corbawn Lane, The 40 foot (after Dark), Poolbeg lighthouse & behind Bullock Harbour last winter.

There's even a spring run down in Poolbeg beleive it or not.

Although not Dublin - Greystones North beach still can fish well after a good easterly.

Correct!

Wikipedia: "The town (Bray) straddles the Dublin-Wicklow border, with a portion of the northern suburbs situated in County Dublin.

So Shane youll have to give the mark away to save face :lol:

If north beach youre on topic. But only by a few hundred metres :lol:
