do you fish behind greystones golf club ?

If you fish off the rocks behind greystones golf club, and you get access to the rocks by crossing the bridge.
They fenced off the gap where you cross the bridge from. :evil:
so take a pair of boots and wade through the stream or you can climb up over the bridge

Have they blocked off the fence at the front of the driving range as well ? If not go in that way and walk down beside railway line. :D

Park at the driving range entrance, walk to railway line, go through gap in fence and walk down to where river comes into sea. :D
