The author
Eric, Greystones, Co. Wicklow
Shore angler based on the Wicklow coast. I built this site because the information I needed when I started fishing here didn't exist in one place, and what did exist was generic, inland-focused, or years out of date.
Every spot guide on this site is a mark I've fished. Every species profile is written from sessions on this coast, not copied from tackle shop guides. The live conditions verdict draws on current coastal weather; summaries refresh on a rolling schedule so you are not guessing from stale screenshots.
Fishing the Wicklow coast since 2018. Covering Bray Head to Arklow. Sea fishing only.
