Freah Bait

Should Have Done Arts

Hey

Do ye know where I can buy live rag/lug or peeler in Cork and Kerry area?

Can fresh sand eel (un frozen ) be bought off a pier anywhere?

I know some of these bait may not be in season but may aswell get all bait info into one post.

For Cork, Paul Coady is probably your best bet. He's based in Cloyne. Good tackle shop and his bait is top class.

For Kerry then Chris Sullivan is worth a go, he's been in a cast the last few weeks so might not have bait but he's worth a call anyway.

You won't(shouldn't) get rag this time of year unless it's farmed. There's an unwritten rule that it's not dug between Halloween and Paddy's Day to let them breed.

Both places above should be good for lug and crab but you might have to wait a few weeks for Chris to be back on his feet again.
There's a few lads in Youghal that would be good for crab all year around. Don't have any contacts for them tho.

Usually any good tackle shop will sell bait, frozen and live.
