Galway Bay charter skippers report very good fishing over the last week. Mackerel have been plentiful, and with the extra numbers of bait fish the predators are feeding hard. Good numbers of pollack and coalfish are showing, providing plenty of sport. Chgeck out the short video below from skipper Julian Dosso on the Leaca Rua.
Skipper Kevin MacGabhann on the Maighdean Mara reports some great pollack fishing, along with coalies, cod, ling, wrasse, pouting and a few doggies.
Over on the Brazen Hussy, John Fleming says “Some fine fish on the move this weekend, best of the fish taken on soft plastic or slow pitch jigs. We even managed a surprise… well semi surprise megrim yesterday, I say semi surprise as we know they are in that area but we haven’t ever actually targeted them”

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.
