Angling
Mark
About 12 kms south west of
Ballyduff is Ballingarry. Take the last turn before the main road
swings away from the coast and drive down past several houses
until the road ends at a farmyard. A walk of about 300m leads to
the fishing point. Local anglers use this mark for spinning for
pollack and mackerel. There is also float fishing for ballan
wrasse and bottom fishing for conger. Care should be exercised in
wet conditions.
Bait
Bait can be
collected in the Cashen Estuary nearby. This can be reached by
following the road past Ballybunion Golf Club towards the
estuary. A lane or small road leads to the northern shore at the
old ferry crossing. Three hundred meters to the left and across a
small field is a good location for peeler crab under the weedy
banks in the muddy backwater. The thick mud here can be difficult
to dig.
