    No.
    The link I gave in my reply is intended to answer your second question.
    My flyfishing expertise is in freshwater, so I declined to answer the other.

    I'm sure a saltwater flyfisher will answer your first question given adequate time, not many people flyfish Dublin seashores so only a few will consider answering that particular question. Some patience may be required to allow that to happen.

    I've had pollack and squid on the fly off the beach at Killiney. Some of it is a bit tight for backcasting room - if you can get out just off the shore in a float tube you'd kill it!

    I live in louth at clogherhead and have caught macks on the fly rod, but only when the sea is alive with them! Lads have caught bass on the strand with the fly rod but iv never tried it, iv no waders:(. Its well worth a go here on the strand in the summer months.
