when do you plan to go?

you have 6/7 beaches very close to you that can all throw up bass on their day - good flounder are to be had also

if it was the summer time - great sport is to be had for pollack/wrasse off the rocks

distance casting throws up dogs and ray

piers/rock marks can throw up conger

well bring loads of lug - or even better dig some locally

big lug baits take care of the bass - they do show for razor but the lug is easier and covers a greater range of fish

watch yourself on some of those beaches - they are storm beaches - huge surges in and out at times and crazy currents so always set the gear up well back if its a bit windy and theres loads of surf - especially doughmore

i would still think that the dusk/night fishing would be best at that time of the year
