#1 Post by freedom1916 »

Hi

I'm going to Banna the easter weekend with the family and hope to get a session in. Looking for advice on marks and bait suppliers. Cheers

banna is a huge beach! spent 3 days fishin around there 2 summers ago.try blackrock,between banna and ballyheigue,caught a few nice flatties there,the tide flows in around the rock there.fenit is a nice spot too for easy fishin,and is not too far away,and kerry head for rock fishin,beautiful spots to fish with good weather.cool thing too bout banna is the lifeguards,one of them spotted me setting up early the 2nd morning who had recognised me from the day before,asked did i loose any traces,i said two, pointed him in the direction and low and behold the next day he rocked up on his quad with 6 traces,my 2 and 3 of the strangest traces ive ever seen and a baited spoon,nice.the tide falls so low there and people walk along barefoot he told me,alot of people get caught in old rigs so he does runs on the quad on the low tide in rough vacinity of where lads where casting on the high before.cool eh 8)
