Heading down to Cork fishing for the next few days. Any suggestions where to try or avoid?

De Wall not really fishing too well at the moment due I presume to Trawler activity in the area. You got a PM.....
Fluff chucking is the new black..... Rampant Wreckfish is a fly angler in denial :D

The garryvoe beaches are fishing very well at the moment. NOTE THESE ARE NIGHT BEACHES ONLY. Monkstown will still produce a cod (1.5 - 3lb)every second cast. The eastury above the bridge in Youghal is also turning up a few fish. Send me a PM and I'll try and narrow it down a bit finer.
