    You have loads of options
    The Lee
    Blackwater
    Sullane
    Bandon
    All the little tributaries that come off each river too

    I have fished all of them and never had a problem , just don't be acting the maggot and you will not have a problem but I don't kill any trout don't see the point I'd imagine if ya go killing trout on a regular basis you could find yourself getting grief

    Ah ya, definitely.I dont think i ever killed a wild trout, dont see the point in taking them.Prefer to put them back and keep the spot stocked.

    I don't mind people killing trout now don't get me wrong , I am not a c&r nut like half the people on the internet these days but I don't eat trout so need to keep them

    I was in the bandon last night for two hours I was just driving through and had rod in car ,water is horrible , very low and full of growth didn't get a tap but I did see some sea trout bout 1-2 lb throwing themselfs around just before it got dark
