Re: CORK - COD
Still no sign of cod run in Youghal - fished Ferry Point for two hours either side of low tide at the weekend. No cod, didn't see anybody else catching any either. But I did catch a bass on crab so it wasn't a wasted trip.

Re: CORK - COD
Water temperatures of 12.5 from the M5 buoy and 11.2 from the M3 buoy being reported today.
Might have to drop a bit more for greater numbers to show no?

Re: CORK - COD
Heading down to Monkstown in a couple of weeks for 3 days fishing. What kind of leads are needed, fixed grippers or breakaway?
Never been down before, looking forward to it.

Re: CORK - COD
You will need grip leads to fish the wall 5oz or 6pz mostly depending on how strong the tide is
Check the tides on the dates you are planning smaller tides are better as you will be able to fish them longer
