Greystones South beach

#1 Post by Al »

If anyone is thinking of fishing behind the driving range, it's completely fenced off, looks like they've done a proper job this time..I walked under the bridge through the river though!fishing now and plenty of coalies around between 30-40cm...good fun on the carp rod :)

Should be good from lw up this evening, I'm just frozen blacks topped with mac, on light 3 hook flappers with size 4's and a 3oz lead, all fish about 30 yards out! I've had coalies, wrasse and dabs.

First time here in about 2 years, plenty of fish and no weed, it is a nightmare getting under the bridge with a seat box alright.
