Guileen and Inch are very close(come out of trabolgin and turn right)for flounder,pollock and bass , roaches point can be fished for conger, rockling , wrasse and pollock with the odd mackerel thrown in.
Ballycotton pier is a good option if you are bringing kids with you, plenty of dogfish to them occupied.

You can fish in the holiday park also for pollock and wrasse.

Sorry for the late reply,I fished the pier at the back of golf course twice but caught nothing. Have a chat with Clinton the security guard.he's the lad with the pony tail. He regularly catches bass from that pier.
