Not sure about Greystones but was down the end of the west pier for 3hrs today and there was none showing. Loads of lads flicking feathers and a few spinning and didn't see one mac caught. Was getting small flats on every cast with rag though :) Wouldn't advise fishing fishing the pier on an evening tide, had a crew of around of around 15 bashers show up and took over the place :x Dropped in to Sorrento on the way there,spoke to a few lads who hadn't had any joy.

If your parking at the west pier use the car park at the pumping station its €3.60 for the day and only a couple of extra minutes walk :wink: saves you clock watching and the inevitable fish start biting when you've only 10 minutes left of parking
