Stefan Martin poetically reports on some great shore fishing in Donegal Bay this week.

What a glorious week we had in a weather window before the wind over the weekend.. watching the boats setting out early morning into blazing red sky’s and looking forward all day to getting fishing in the evening with the rods. Some fine hauls of flounder on the beaches and a very happy angler getting his first ever sea trout on the beach well done Cormac and great to see it released back. Some quiet sessions out also but it’s always worth it just to be touring Donegal’s boreens winding through hills overlooking white sand beaches and rolling surfs and be there at the western facing headlands with the open Atlantic burning red on sundown for that hour of sunset the highlight of the day, sheer bliss…
