Name’s Artificial Lure here, checking in with your coastal Ireland fishing report. Along the south and west coasts today, we’re sitting under a settled, early‑summer pattern: light west to northwest breezes 5–12 knots, with clearer skies in the east and more cloud and patchy drizzle brushing the Atlantic seaboard. Met Éireann is calling it mild and calm enough for comfortable sessions off the rocks and beaches, though that west coast swell is still rolling a metre or two on the more exposed headlands, so mind your footing. Sunrise has been creeping in just after 5 a.m., with sunset sliding in around 10 p.m., giving a long window to work those key bites at first and last light. Low light has been the money time lately for bass and pollack in tight to the shore, especially when it lines up with the pushing tide. Tides are on the smaller side of the cycle now, with moderate highs mid‑morning and late evening along the south coast and a slightly later phase on the west. On these neaps you don’t get the big rips, but the fish have been nosing in confidently on the last half of the flood and the first of the ebb. Plan your rock marks so you’re in position as that flood starts to build. Reports from local charter skippers out of Cork Harbour and Kinsale say good numbers of schoolie and the odd better‑sized bass showing on the inner reefs and estuary mouths, with mixed bags of pollack, codling, coalies, and a few ling offshore. Shore lads around Youghal, Tramore, and Wexford beaches have been picking up bass, flounder, and schoolie smoothhounds, with smaller numbers of ray on crab baits. Around the west, Galway Bay and Clare rock marks are turning up plenty of pollack, wrasse, and mackerel when they push in, with some decent tope showing to the boat crews running fresh mackerel flappers. Lure choice has mattered. For bass, slim **white or sandeel‑pattern soft plastics** on 10–20 g heads, and **shallow‑running minnows** in natural baitfish colours have been out‑fishing most else over clean sand and broken ground. Over rougher rock marks, heavier **paddle‑tails** and **metal jigs** are picking out pollack and coalies holding mid‑water. Wrasse are still hammering **crab imitations** and small, scented soft plastics bounced tight to kelp. Bait anglers are doing best with **peeler and soft crab** for bass and smoothhound, **lugworm and rag** for flatties and general scratching, and **fresh mackerel strip** for rays, dogs, and gurnard. Fresh is beating frozen by a wide margin, especially on the clearer‑water days. A couple of hotspots to have on your radar: • Cork Harbour to Roches Point: plenty of mixed species potential, with bass on the edges of the channels at dawn, mackerel running the outer marks, and wrasse and pollack on the rough ground. • Clare and Galway rock marks from Black Head down towards Loop Head: solid pollack and wrasse fishing on the flood, with an evening bass chance where surf pushes over sand and reef. Fish light, move until you find them, and be ready to switch between lures and bait as the tide and light change. The fish are there if you put in the legwork.
