West Cork Coast — Clonakilty Area·6 Mar 2026
Fishing report photo from West Cork Coast — Clonakilty Area

After some tough blanks over the winter the Mullet finally decided to feed here in beautiful West Cork, well for a few hours anyway... Four landed during an afternoon into evening session, two over the Irish Specimen Thick Lip length size of 55cm, which should relate to 5lb +. Standard feeder tactics used, with Mr Brennan’s finest white Bread on the size 8 hook. Looking forward to more Mullet action by various means as the season progresses and the weather hopefully improves... Contact me now to arrange your Guided Trip or Workshop – Mullet, Pollock, Bass, Wrasse, Fly or Lure, Kayak or Shore, plus Junior Coarse Fishing - david.aawc@gmail.com

Lough Corrib·14 Sept 2025
🎣 Wet Fly🎣 Dry Fly🎣 Boat

This is an example fishing report to show what's possible on fishing.ie. Every angler can submit their own — just click "Submit Report" in the navigation bar. Headed out from Greenfields in Oughterard around half nine with a southwest wind pushing nicely across the lake. Started drifting over the shallows near Birchall and had a fish come short on a Claret Bumble within the first hour. Switched to a team of Bibio on the top dropper, Green Peter on the middle, and a Murrough on the point — that combination worked well for the rest of the day. The best spell came between one and three when the cloud thickened up and a light drizzle set in. Took three fish in quick succession off Rabbit Island, all on the Bibio fished just under the surface. Beautiful wild brownies averaging about a pound and a quarter, deep gold with vivid red spots. Conditions eased off around four and the fish went quiet, so we worked back towards Baurisheen Bay for the last hour. One final fish came to a dry Spent Gnat in the calm — a lovely rise in flat water. Five fish landed from seven hooked, all carefully released. A proper day on Corrib. Your turn: Hit "Submit Report" to log your catch. Pick your venue, add the conditions, tell the story, and upload a photo or two. Your reports help build the picture for every angler who fishes these waters.
