Re: waterford estuary
yes bigger tides means the water comes over the bank and your fishing box will be floating

Re: waterford estuary
Next Monday is a very small tide, had planned on travelling south myself but with recent reports & biblical rain we’ve knocked it on the head.

Re: waterford estuary
don't know whether im right...but after a lot of rain and big floods...we usually give the estuary about a week to return to normal (but thats just us...could be totally wrong)

Re: waterford estuary
didnt hear of many cod in the river yet only smaller ones few good whiten and dabs tho.you could try down the river to get away from fresh water.here of a few cod on the beach in tramore last week.
