Hi all,
thinking of going to Rostonstown in Wexford to try my luck on Saturday. Is it fishing well at the moment? Any info or advice for this venue as i have not been there before?
cheers!

Re: Rostonstown Wexford
with all the blow from the south recently id imagine there would be a fine raft of kelp waiting for you - plus with these winds youd probably have most fun just opening the door on the car dont mind going down to witness the 5m waves for yourself - say it could be dodgy just to stand on the beach -if it stays like this
catch and release!

Re: Rostonstown Wexford
its a good beach to fish, very deep. but listen to corbyeire that place would be full of weed at the moment.

Re: Rostonstown Wexford
thanks lads, the forcast is for northerlys from friday on and i was hoping this would be enough to allow a gap in the weed. if you still dont think that will help maybe you could reccomend a spot that might work?
thanks again.
thanks again.

Re: Rostonstown Wexford
i heard that the lake at our ladys island was covering a lot of the islands - id imagine the roads there could be coverd also - probably need a good let up in the rain too!

Re: Rostonstown Wexford
U could risk it and see what happens but I'd take the lads advice , it is always a lot windyer then the givin forecast
but if u do catch something there is a good chance it will be a big one
Ps I would not bother if u do not have fresh crab.

Re: Rostonstown Wexford
Brother in law was driving and wanted to take a look for himself, so we went Saturday, suprisingly there was no weed. Didnt catch any keepers though.
