Mackerel Fishing

When is the best time of year to catch mackerel in West Cork? Would the recent warm weather be bringing them in yet?

I was just coming on to see if they were in.I seen a 2 men in last couple of days with rods in cobh.So I'm guessing something must be there.

would also love to know, was thinking of gearing up and heading off for the day tomorrow.

Any reccomendations on spots around Cork to go?

Have a hankering for some fried fillets meself now.
Weather is warm enough for them alright anyway so maybe they'll be arriving in numbers

Still too choppy on the east coast i reckon...they wont feed if there's sand in the water.
