Paul Harris of Dromagowlane House and bearaseafishing.com reports on the fishing around the Beara Peninsula recently…
05 Sep: While wife Penny was enjoying some of the lovely walks on the Beara, Gary Evans was concentrating more on its fishy residents. Ever the keen angler he was up early on some morning to catch as many as 16 pollack before breakfast. He caught one nice bass in stormy conditions when he saw a few fish showing, but sadly lost a couple of equally good fish.
31 Aug: Kev, his brother and father Mike had top pollacking during their stay, managing 2 new PBs of 11lb 1oz for Kev and 9lb 6oz for his dad. They also another 9lb fish and 3 more at 8lb. Overall they caught more than 20 fish over 6lb.
On the last half day they fished the Airport in flat calm and very bright conditions. No ray were caught but they had fish most casts. Mostly lsd but we also had several huss to 7lb.
27 Aug: That lure fisherman ‘extraordinaire’, Mark Noble was down from Dublin for a few days and as well as catching some good pollack and wrasse also had a try at the Beara’s bass population.
