    South East New species / PB

    Dunno, but it didn’t taste very nice (I jest… it’s a sand goby)

    South East New species / PB

    Coughed up by a large whiting, still counts as a PB right?

    From Harlyn car park. Trevose head is great but my wife has banned me going by myself. The rocks can be treacherous and there is no phone signal down there.

    Suggestions / Padstow / trevose / treyarnon / constantine bay / Cornwall

    Just back from Padstow we go every year. My favourite spot is Harlyn Bay and this time last week I caught my first pollack whilst light lure fishing. Park in the grassy hill car park and walk up the top of the cliff. At the first bench you’ll see an easy way down to the rocks (go two hours...

    North Wales Up and running for ‘24

    Great effort! They look big compared to the goldfish sized bass I normally catch 🤣

    South Coast 2024 round 2.

    Lovely stuff. With that water clarity did you see any fish taking the bait?

    AFAW 6 and bait 14ft FS mk2

    I use a 12’ Multi and 14’ fixed spool and like them both for rough conditions. The 14’ is heavy though.

    South East Disappointing Dungie and dealing with North Kent weed

    I’ll give it a go. Any tips on catching, or is it as simple as a shrimp trap near the weeds with a lump of oily fish?

    South East Disappointing Dungie and dealing with North Kent weed

    Yeah it was, never done it before in the sea but will be a staple during the summer from now on!

    South East Disappointing Dungie and dealing with North Kent weed

    Afternoon all, Had a week off work and managed a few sessions. I’ve been wanting to stay local but there’s so much weed in the Medway it’s almost impossible to fish especially after the strong wind. So after digging a few score of fresh blow lug I headed over to Dungeness…. 7 hours of fishing...

    South East Thames oddity

    Never seen one in the UK, odd catch indeed! Apparently good eating, did you keep it?

    South East Fishing local - Medway

    Probably an hour and a half. Sore back but worth it with the cost of bait these days - this amount is plenty for three sessions plus I gave a couple score to my neighbour.

    South East Fishing local - Medway

    Evening ladies and gentlemen, Said it before but I’ve gone off driving for 70 minutes to Dungie / Hythe to catch pin whiting so decided to focus local and see if I can catch anything. So this thread is dedicated to the Medway and spots I can walk to! Today started off by digging some lovely...

    South West Advice please!

    You can fish the harbour but you need a licence. It’s free and you can get one from the harbour masters office. At least that is the case when I checked last… Seen loads of fish in there including the biggest bass I’ve ever seen - its caudal fin was as big as my hand! Apparently strips of bacon...

    South West Advice please!

    We go to Padstow every year and I fish every time with varying success! My favourite spot is Trevose Head because you can spin for pollock which we don’t really get on the North Kent coast so something a bit different. Biggest I’ve caught probably 2.5-3lbs so not exactly big but lots of fun...

    South East A cost saving experiment

    I’ve had a few trips to Dungeness this Autumn and they’ve not been great, loads of pin whiting and nothing decent. I always dig my own bait to reduce costs but even so the petrol needed for the 100 mile round trip to catch pins left a sour taste… So last weekend I decided to stay local and...
