There are miles of beaches for the shore angler with crashing surf for bass and rays, quiet beaches and estuaries with skate, flounder and plaice and piers and deepwater rock marks contain a variety of species including pollock, wrasse and conger eels.The shallow waters on the north of the peninsula have become known for specimen ray and monkfish, whilst Inch Strand to the South is known for big autumn bass.
