Bertra Beach, Co. Mayo

#1 Post by micheal300 »

Right folks,

I just spent two hours at the end of Bertra beach this afternoon fishing for didly squat.

Spent most of the time spinning. I'm just a beginner but had hoped for something.

Anyone any guidance for this mark or any tips on what I might be doing wrong?

Cheers

in front of the car park,about fifty yds up to the right,try fishing flattie rigs with lug,you will be able to pick up all you need in the shore thing, beside the helm, in the quays in westport,ask doug there, he will tell you everything you need to know.hope this helps
