Angling
Mark
Situated 2.5 kms north west
of Milltown Malbay, this small sandy beach fishes best in
moderate surf conditions for flatfish and occasional bass. Access
is easy with good parking facilities and is popular with bathers
in July and August. The two rocky headlands either side of the
beach offer the opportunity to spin for pollack and mackerel and
float fish for wrasse.
Bait
Seafield Pier is
the nearest location to obtain bait. It lies about 2.5 kms west
of Quilty. There is plenty of parking spaces in this area and
access is easy. Bait digging for lugworm and some small ragworm
is 150 meters to the left of the pier. Low water and the first
2.5 hours of the flood tide is the ideal time.
