I believe the winter months to be the best time of year from what I'm told, the colder water bringing them closer to shore. As for where to catch them, they aren't that easy come by so I can't see anyone willing to give out any information in a hurry. Last year there were quite a few codling caught as far up as rathmullan pier, as for the cod, I'm hoping this year will be the year :mrgreen:
