    Newhaven East Arm, Sussex.

    So I’m guessing you can and to fish towards tide mills or off the end? Why would you fish in the boat channel anyway? I’ve never fished it myself to be honest but the east side seems quite a trek for the potential advantage gained.

    Where does older tackle rank ?

    I have a century formula tip tornado I bought new around 1994? So 30yrs old it’s my go to Bass surf rod …I love it and it will put a 4oz weight and 2 big worm baits 100yds easily. The trick is having a tidy rig and knowing where to put it!

    Up&Over or One-Hook Clipped Down?

    I squeeze the hook barbs down on most of my rigs to be honest, makes unhooking so much easier! Do I lose fish? I would argue not 🤷

    Lantern for night fishing

    The winter beaches I fish aren’t really low tide venues so set up on HW bank as fish 3hrs before and 2hrs after HW and at worst will be 30-40yds from tide line

    Lantern for night fishing

    I use a Fenix headlight for all my fishing, if it’s really cold or I plan a long winter night session I put a Tilly lamp in the back of my brolly set up and have amazing heat to boot! Heats up pies along with light for baiting up the 2nd rigs!

    Is there a "rule of thumb" for saltwater fishing swivels. snaps/clips ?

    Unless of course you like to see your rig heading off to the horizon during a cast with swivels larger than the lead you’re using 🤔😂😂

    Is there a "rule of thumb" for saltwater fishing swivels. snaps/clips ?

    I check the BS of the swivel before buying seeing as the size rating seems to vary but as I use 60lb leaders and rig bodies I use 60lb swivels, small and tidy…simples

    Where do you buy your rigs?

    And as a bonus you get the exact rig you want with the hook style and size you want along with the hook lengths you want. Start fishing with confidence and watch it all go downhill from there! 😂

    Advice Best All Year Wellies Options?

    Why do you need special wellies? I only use standard wellies bait pumping or if I’m fishing on the sand so during the winter not that often. If I want wellies on to keep draught’s out or raining I’ll wear standard wellies and a 2nd pair of heavy socks! Simples…
