Where can I fish for mackerel?
The best places to catch mackerel are piers and rocks, both of which are already in deeper water. Mackerel don’t normally come in too close to the beach.

A thick set, heavy behind the head, pollack that was in its prime and a really nice fish for the Irish Sea.

What happened to the Irish fishing communities in Ireland?
As the Irish were driven from their lands across the east and south, coastal tracts became the property of English landlords. Without access to the sea, many Irish fishing families were forced to turn to the land for sustenance.
