Re: Deep water ?
Hi, not too sure about the dublin coastline but up here in donegal if we want deep water we just clip on an extra spark plug and cast out an extra few hundred yards

It's all about the fishing

Re: Deep water ?
you must be some lad if your able to cast out an "extra few hundred yards"
Your probably catching blue sharks from the beach !!!!
Guess what im looking for is some were that the water gets deep fairly quick. If that makes sense

Re: Deep water ?
deep water is in short supply around dublin
a rock mark would give you the best chance of fishing deep.the only thing is fishing most of these is a bit dangerous in the wet especialy on your tod
what fish are you after?

Re: Deep water ?
you could try Dalkey sound either fish it off Colliemore Harbour or the park but you will need 5 or six ounce grip weights to hold bottom cause there is a big run at certain stages of the tide. you could also try the forthy foot, Bug Rock or the back of the top of the east pier in Dun Laoire. ye should be able to pic up a few fish at all of those marks this time of year.
Wish list for 2015: sword tail, black Molly, horny cobbler

Re: Deep water ?
the fourty foot is a no fish zone samo even if some anglers choose to ignore it ,i dont think sending someone there is a good idea not to mention its dam near suicidal under foot

Re: Deep water ?
forgot about that so is Bug Rock then. the back of Bullock harbour can throw up the odd fish as well but its pretty snaggy and there is usually a few lobster pots out there as well.

Re: Deep water ?
best advice is to try get out fishing with a few of the local guys, and see what there doing and where,
colimore as samo said will start to through up some half decent codling and coalies soon,

Re: Deep water ?
Bray pier can throw up a few species and you can fish from the back of the car if ya reverse down the pier 
It ain't easy but it sure is simple!
