Daily Updates from Cobh Harbour

The last week saw a marked difference in fishing within Cork Harbour,mainly due to the more favourable weather conditions.Bellavista had 4 boats out for the week and the fishing was terrific,with Bass up to 12lbs and lots over 8 lbs. Conger last week up to 35lbs, although we had a 50 lbs conger the previous week.The self drive angling experience is proving very popular and we continue to grow our fleet of Warriors. Regular anglers to Bellavista Hotel Steve Ramsay (Bass Ace) and John Roscoe (Doggy king) are bringing a new Warrior 165 to Bellavista tonight to join the fleet,this will make 6 boats available for the self drive experience. Bellavista have teamed up with Seaham Angling Club in the U.K. We Will welcome the fisrt group of 12 keen anglers from Seaham on 7th August ,we hope that this will be the start of a productive and long relationship between Seaham and Bellavista. If you are thinking about fishing the the Cork Small Boats Competition please enquire about hiring a Bellavista boat for the week.  Bellavista wants all our anglers to know we operate a strict catch and release policy and we are only interested in anglers who will abide by our conservation policy.
