Fished Cruit island once, glorious place to be!

Can't give too much info as I found myself fishing in the local kennels by the amount of dogs I was pulling in. There's plenty of bait can be dug around there and you've got options that will give you shelter from the wind in pretty much any direction with the choice of deep or shallow beaches.

Fish wise there's definitely doggies there, I know that! Apparently you can also get turbot and the odd ray too plus pollock and wrasse by the looks of the rock marks there.

Best I can suggest would be to ask in the tackle shop in Dungloe. Very helpful chap by the name JP who pointed me in the right direction.
