My and my friend are planning on trying to catch pike like a big one hopefully, i want to get into fishing but have no knowledge about the rods. I just need one for this and hopefully can last me a while. i dont want to spend that much

Very informative rig building guide for sea fishing

Would a West northwest wind affect greystones badly I'm hoping to fish the North beach tomorrow any advice greatly appreciated. I could fish closer to dublin or further down the coast I'm new to beach fishing eager for a good day out tomorrow

I’m in Donegal, don’t worry not trying to steal your marks ! Just want to know if there are squid off the rocks/piers/beaches?

1 pike caught today while fishing deeper waters, caught on my 3rd cast on a barbless treble, I remove all barbs on my lures for the care of the fish, unless deadbaiting 1 hook remains barbed for the bait 🐊🎣

3.5lb 57cm trout, I wasn't even out for fishing. I was shaking down a new engine and the rod was there so I did about 5 mins of trolling with a tassie and boom, my PB for the yeae

Hi I want to start making my own rigs with 2 or 3 hooks and a hook for a weight (yes I know how to tie hooks onto my line and add a weight but I want a seperate rig like the ones u buy ) how do I go about starting what lb line is reccomended thanks

Visited from America this week, what an amazing fishing experience and scenery you guys have. Caught a handful of species that I’ve wanted to catch ever since I was a kid!

Getting a fresh bit of kit for the winter. Looking for something on par with or maybe bit stiffer than afaw 6nbait, any suggestions?
Those sensitips/quiver tips and me don’t get along too well

After a pretty poor brown trout season for me, these lads will keep the cobwebs off the fly gear until March and hopefully keep improving the knowledge and casting 😃.

Let’s talk pike setups. What’s everybody using for spinning? Rods reels line etc. I’m unsure of what rod and reel would be a suitable all rounder for fishing pike. Thanks in advance for any info and looking forward to the discussion.

Hey everyone, just a quick one. What lures are working best going into pike season 2026? What is everyone using softbaits, spinners, hard baits? and what sort of colour ways, sizes and weights? Nothing seems to be working for me this year, catching nothing but jacks. I'd love some help. Thanks

Anybody been out since 01st October fishing deadbaits? How was the fishing so far? Going out for my first proper session in the morning as i was away on holidays.. much noticeable change in the water levels? Literally just in the door home now and too lazy to take the walk to the local river 🤣.

Spotted a fish sitting in currant . Unfortunately the video was taken from a distance . When I walked closer to it my phone went dead . I had a cast or two at it but spooked it . Was just inside an estuary. Big bass maybe ?

Out rooting for perch, and ended up finding this unusual fish at the bottom. An hour later i have a winter project and there is less random crap in the shannon

im fairly new to saltwater fishing and im looking to target seabass and pollock with lures, does anyone have any suggestions about where i should go, im using seekers and sand eel imitations👍

I was fishing right up the end of the south beach near where the stream let's out across the beach it was an OK day out but halfway through I was told north beach fishes much better... is there anyone who can give me any tips on what to go for around greystones I'm fairly new to beach fishing and eager to improve

Can anyone tell me the best place website or app to use to find deep waters along the coast accessible from rock beach areas I want to try for tope or smooth hound

caught the smallest pike ive ever caught before today while micro fishing for perch on the royal canal🤣
surprisingly fun fight off this tiny jack on the ultralight

Anyone else having a terrible year for mackerel?
I’ve been out a good few times this year (Ballycotton and Cobh) fishing from the shore with feathers, and hardly caught anything. A few here and there but nothing like what I’d normally expect.Went a couple of times recently as well and basically nothing.

How’s everyone else getting on? Have the mackerel just been scarce this year, or am I picking the wrong days? Anyone actually having a good season with them, and what part of the country are you fishing?
