John Fleming had a group out from Howth SAC last week, who enjoyed some of the great fishing the west coast has to offer.
“Well despite the very dodgy forecast from the north we managed to hit the inshore reefs with the Howth Sac, got some lovely pollock gilling sandeels, a whopper of a pouting, most of which were taken on baited feathers, with the weather worsening we headed further inshore in search of some wrasse, we had some nice ballans and a couple of cuckoos, along with mackerel and the other usual suspects”.

A regular day is between 9am- 6pm from either Rossaveal, Spiddal or Galway depending on species being sought after. Fishing on the inshore reefs for pollock, cod, ling, wrasse, conger eel and mackerel can be reached in 10 minutes from departure, while our offshore reef marks are within 45 minutes of departure. Our ground fishing for tope, spurdog, ray, bullhuss, turbot, plaice and the giant common skate can all be reached within the hour which ensures the most amount of time is spent fishing.
The shark season usually starts at the end of June and runs into late October, this is the ultimate angling adrenaline rush with these hard fighting blue and porbeagle sharks all being tagged and released safely.
