Hi Andy, many of the Estuary marks down Limerick and Kerry hold good sized ray, plenty of dogs and small dabs. The odd huss, dogies and flounder were caught on the Clare side around Poulnasherry and Kilkee up to to the rocky deep water marks on the Burren to Blackhead where you could pick up Wrasse, Ray, Conger and Pollock. There are a couple of reports up in the shore reports section for more detail. Mackerel fishing is very patchy, don't rely on it for bait. I'm not sure if Bourke's are open for business yet, you have heard of Michael's passing. Bassfishing is still closed until and including 15th June, but you are aware of that anyway as a regular visitor. Looking forward to read your reports! :wink: Enjoy your holiday and tight lines! :)
