Captain
Fergus Ward

Member since March 2024 Crosshaven, Ireland
Background
I'm a 69 yr old very active retired guy. I've been fishing all my life. I fished with the Crosshaven sea angling club for over 20 yrs and was a club master angler many times. I know the Cork harbour very well,.
Techniques
Ground fishing is the general type preferred, but I carry lighter gear for spinning and live baiting. Cork Harbour is the second largest natural harbour in the world and can be fished safely 99% of the time.
