sandeel bay?
hi I tried a place near hook head called sandeel bay it was a beautiful spot to fish and I straightaway thought bass but we had no luck at all.I fished it in April and saw a few flatfish swimming in the shallow water and I also think it looks like a very good place to fish for macs has anyone ever tried this place.I found it by accident and it is a lovely place to fish.I was using crab mac lug sandeels! and I think rag aswell and I might have used squid too can't really remember but definetely remember paying for the stupid crab that caught me nothing

Hi,
It's a beautiful spot. I fished there twice last August. Blanked both times but on the first occasion there were 50 kids swimming in the sea and on the second it was a rainy weed fest. I saw a lot of guys heading over to the rocks on the right. The rocks at the back of slade harbour is productice for lure fishing. I wouldn't bother with bait fishing there as the ground is too rough.
Good luck.

I was there last week but it was dirty enough. The only bit of clean water was at the point to the right of the beach. One of the lads caught a pollock there. Seemingly it is a very good spot for the bass though and can be productive to the fly also.
