Wexford/wicklow

#1 Post by Woulfec »

Well lads. Heading to Dublin Saturday 11th of the month. Was gonna try go early the Friday and get a day's fishing in.
Was hoping for smooth hound or spurdog.
Anyone point me what townlands I should try? And maybe some possible place for peeler crab or whatever bait is good for them. Drop me a pm I won't disclose any spots.
Thanks

not many big smooth hounds showing just yet if your looking for spurs you will have to travel to wexford tinnebeara beach .crab can be got in dublin in Southside angling swords angling on the north side or Henry's tackle just ring to make an order .smooth hounds will take big rag baits about 3 big 1 s up the line works well for me .
if going to wexford or Wicklow you can get bait in bday in Viking tackle or arklow in wild arklow

Great fish! I haven't seen even a picture of a bass like that in years! Fair play to you!
