Never tried here, but saw some photos of it today. Does anybody have any advice on this mark? Is it worth a try and whats the best method?

havent fished that beach, but fished sandeel bay about 5 mins up the road. really clear water and rocky. didnt catch anything on that occassion apparently it fishes better with an on shore breeze and needless to say there wasnt an onshore breeze that day.

but defo give it a go it looks very bassy

It has a few tiny codling and tiny dabs. You would be better if you went to duncannon pier where its full of small codling and very small dabs. Arthurstown has plenty of small codling and a few nice sized flounders.

Cheers for the info

Is that just this time of year, or is it like that through the season?

The flats will be there all year but codling might not be there for too long more
