Shore Angling at Lough Donnell, Co Clare

Location: Co Clare

Nearest Airport: Shannon

Type of Angling Mark: Beach

Angling Mark

This long, sandy beach is 2 miles south of Seafield and access is from the northern end. Turn right off the main road and turn left up a track through a farmyard and park at the left hand side 100 yards from the beach. There is a freshwater lake behind the sea wall with an outlet onto the beach. The focal point here is the freshwater outlet and bottom fishing is best using lugworm and sandeel which produces flatfish and bass on the flooding tide. The beach fishes best in moderate surf conditions and in general has very little angling pressure.

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.
