    Just to revive this old thread - I have been trying to catch mackerel over the past few weeks but haven't had any luck yet. I have tried Roches Point 3 times (very snaggy and hard to fish if its not high tide), and Crosshaven but have yet to catch a mack.

    Has anyone caught any mackerel yet this year from Cork shores and if so where?

    I've seen people with small numbers in Cobh off the deepwater quay, but I don't think there's much yet.
    My uncle said there's plenty being caught off the pier in Schull, but that might be a bit far.

    I'd have have caught loads of them had the fishermen not blockaded the harbour the one day of the year I book a fishing trip!

    there are a few around off the pier in cobh at the moment, spinners seem to work better than the feathers for some reason.

    shanagarry/garryvoe beach,when the tide is out u can go out onto the rocks and fish,but be very very careful,the tide tends to cum in very fast and before you know it you have water all round you and your trapped.

    Lads, Nohoval cove is ok but very often there are alot of swimmers, divers and so on and as space is very limited fishing usually doesnt work,

    Rocky bay is good for bass which is just over the road east of nohoval cove.

    also in the opposite direction, other side of nohoval village, there are several spots for mackeral and pollock, hard to find but locals would direct you from the village
