Inch strand

#1 Post by quagmiresdad »

We are coming over from Scotland in three weeks time for our yearly visit to the Kerry/Clare region.could I ask if it is possible to drive all the way to the end of inch strand in a 4x4 to fish the channel?

It is possible in a proper 4x4 but be very careful and stay high up the beach as there are some soft spots.

We drove the full length a couple of weeks back in a 4x4 with no problems. we did see a good few cars getting stuck but its a busy spot so always someone around to help.

June 26th. high water 13:00 - 4.3mt tide
Drive below the high water mark but be gone off the beach about 2 hours before high water.
I always found that down to the left fishes best at the start of the flood
