Will agree the last day was poor on normal returns from these 2 beaches.
Been back to the Ballybrannigan venue a few times since and I'm still catching fish there. Went to the Cobh venue once for mullet pulled a 5lb bass of it.

Once came across an auld fella from Dublin fishing the latter spot you're talking about Donal - he had over 1/2 dozen bass ranging from 3lb - 8lb!
