Bait

Bait can be obtained from White Strand Killard beach 2.5 kms west of Doonbeg. The beach is in two sections and lugworm can be dug here on the left hand side at low water and the first two hours of the flood tide.Bait can also be obtained from Carrigaholt Pier which is situated 0.5 km on the eastern side of Carrigaholt village. Access is easy and there is parking on the side of the road near the main Slipway. Soft and peeler crab can be collected both here and and among the rocks adjacent to the pier.
