I've never heard of anyone getting one from the shore although it should be possible. The best area in the lough is the Hoskyns channel and that's one hell of a cast from shore. In fact, since they started dragging Dundalk Bay for razor fish, the number of tope has dropped dramatically so it's not much of a fishery any more.
