    Never fished louth but essentially try get as far south as you can - arklow - preferrably wexford.

    Make sure your tides are right and your in a good moon phase, atmospheric pressure rising is fantastic, along with fishing in troughs, holes and along bars.

    If you didnt consider any of the last three points then learn them. pm me i'll send you some links!

    Fishing around Louth is pretty terrible. When the mackerel are in, you can catch them in Greenore or in Clogherhead. There are, of course, the tiny fish around piers, but that's more for small kids. You can get an occasional bass or white trout in various spots, and there are tope in the Hoskyns Channel near the lighthouse in Carlingford Lough. When I go shore fishing, I drive to Donegal - I can be on the rocks in Teelin Bay in around 2.5 hours. Someone suggested going south - that's true enough, but to get to Arklow could take 3 hours with the traffic.
