Mark
This small beach is one
mile south of Lahinch and you can park at the track junction at
the head of the beach. This beach only fishes well in surf
conditions for bass and flounder using lugworm and sandeel on the
flooding tide. During calm conditions, flounder can be caught
where the fresh water stream enters the sea. The best time to
fish is the three hours of the flood tide using a baited spoon
and lugworm.
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.
