Ray, conger and dogs besides Foynes yacht club or Kilteery pier over highwater and 2 hours before, Glinn layby over low, best bait fresh mack on pulley. Returning tides are no good. Morning or after dark tides preferably on all locations. Seatrout and mullet present during slacks at Glin. Dabs can be got with wormbaits throughout. Otherwise stick to fresh mack or sandeel wrapped in squid. Pennel or single pulleys for ray, ledger for conger, 3 hook flapper for dabs. Up and over distance rigs are good for ray from Kiltiery and Glin.
