    sorry for replying to this old thread... its the first time i saw this board.

    Cork is where i fish - sea, coarse and game. Last year i moved to the city, and haven't been able to go fishing much as a result. I was fortunate enough to have lived in places that offer some good fishing,

    I first got into fishing when i lived in America - a coastal town near Cape Cod. Seriously easy to catch fish there... and the bluefish were lethal, and some good fresh water fishing as well... i remember trying to catch herring running up a river... are these the same salt-water herring that u get in ireland?

    So then when I came back to ireland, i lived in Schull, west cork. the only sea fishing i did was for mackerel/pollack, but i lived right next to a reservoir which was stocked with trout.

    and then i moved to Cape Clear island - and went fishing every single day in the spring/summer/autumn and caught an insane amount of fish in some very primitive ways. great variety as well.

    then moved to rosscarbery, which has good estuary fishing for bass and flounder, and beach fishing, but i didn't do much of it. i sometimes went to the Shepperton lakes for some trout. then moved near skibbereen, right next to a big lake which was full of massive pike and tiny rud. that was a great experience. now i'm in the city
