    South West First proper session of the year

    I managed my first proper session of the year on Friday as we had some decent conditions, finally. I used my new 85mm Slim Sticks on the Texas rig and managed around a dozen, with this one being the best.

    South West Last session of 2024

    Last trip of the year this morning after the wrasse. I managed a few fish on my own lures, with them all being a half decent size.

    South West Harbour Wrasse

    We had some strong south westerly winds forecast Friday morning, so I stayed away from the rocks and went to a local harbour where the winds would be coming from behind me, making things a little easier. I managed to land 12, lose another 4 and miss 5 or 6. All fish took my 85mm Wrasse Stick in...

    South West Great session

    This wrasse, at 5lb 5oz, was the best of a 32 fish haul yesterday morning out on a mark I’ve not been to for around three months. I also missed / lost another 20 odd. All fish took the new 85mm Wrasse Stick in either black, brown or watermelon on the Texas rig with a 5g cone weight from both...

    South West Not a bad result

    Went down to the harbour this morning with a mate in search of wrasse. It was tricky with the easterlies, but he was more than happy with this guy. find the next gas station

    South West Yesterday

    This was the best wrasse of around 20 yesterday morning, which came from the narrow gulley behind me in around 1.5m of water. As well as taking a few fish from different gullies, I also managed several wrasse from areas of rough ground several yards out. All fish fell to either a Ned or Senko in...

    South West Out of the wind

    I had to head to a sheltered rock mark on Friday morning to escape the gusty north westerly winds and to try to get some relief from the swells. I tucked myself away and spent some time working a couple of deep gullies with the Lugger Ned on the Texas rig. I didn’t catch anything special, but...

    South West Nice green one

    I returned to my new mark this morning and had several more ballans, including this 5lb 5oz green one. The 4” senkos did the damage again

    South West New mark going well

    I went back to the new mark that I found a couple of weeks ago yesterday morning to see how it would fish on high, after catching 25 or so last week on low. The problem with high tide is that quite often you’re limited on where you can fish, as most other areas are cut off until the tide...

    South West A nice green one from a new mark

    After finding a new mark last week, quite by chance to be honest, I thought I’d go back yesterday morning on low so I could see its make up and give it a good fish during the flood. I targeted a few areas out to sea before dropping into the gullies around 3 hours before high. I ended the session...

    South West On The Bank

    I’ve had a good morning doing a spot of filming with Rob Hughes for his TV show. We managed several fish between us, which is always good when the pressure to catch is on.

    South West Best of the year so far

    Best one of the year so far, just nudged 6lb 1oz. The DF Senko on the Texas rig doing its business once again.

    South West Good session yesterday

    Managed around a dozen yesterday on a 4” senko. This was the best, that hit in a narrow gulley as I pulled the lure through a patch of kelp.

    South West One from a gulley

    Very wet and windy this morning which made things difficult, but I did manage to remove one from a gulley on a senko.

    South West Better weather brings better fish

    Better weather this morning brought some better fish, the best registering 4lb 6oz. All took a senko on the Texas rig

    South West Mullet

    The strong winds and swells kept me away from the rocks this morning, so to a local river I went, armed with a white loaf and a float. One take, one fish.

    South West First 5lb + of the year

    I had 4 hits this morning and managed to net 3 of them, all on the Ned on the Texas rig. A couple were quite small, but I did manage to extract a 5lb 3oz from it’s rocky lair.

    South West I’m back after a break

    Hi folks. After a break, I’m back on the forum. It’s taken a while, I lost my log in details so Mike had to re-set it. Instead of trying to find shelter on Friday morning on a rock mark, I decided to head to a local harbour, knowing the westerly wind would be blowing pretty much from behind me...

    YouTube

    Not sure if anybody is interested, but I’ve just started a wrasse fishing YouTube channel. It’ll be more instructional rather than me just fishing every week. Thanks Plan changed, decided to scrap YouTube

    South West First one of 2024

    It was nice to put the first fish of the year in the net yesterday morning. Although only small, with the conditions consisting of strong winds, murky water and a big swell, I was more than happy to just catch. As in recent weeks, a 3” ned on the Texas rig did the business.
