A handful have been showing from shore in the east Wight area over the last month or so, but TBH it's more by luck than judgement at the moment.

A jellyworm?

Or used tampons?

Prevent? No. Collect them afterwards? Yes. https://www.ghostfishing.co.uk/

Shame on you for trying to palm that mark off on some poor unsuspecting dangler! You can keep it all to yourself. Nice write up though ??

Well done on your first solo trip. Always a milestone but good that it went safely and successfully. (y)

Now there's a blast from the past! Caught my first ever pike on a Lil' Oringen over 30 years ago. Think I still have it in the shed somewhere. Thanks for the trip down memory lane :)

There's an article on slow pitch jigging here. The author of the article has had huge success with slow pitch jigging for bass off the south coast as well as in warmer climes. All of the fish you mention will take a slow pitch jig, as will wrasse, gurnard, whiting & pout. Bottom line though is...

Lucky sod! That was a close call for lots of reasons. Part of me wants to say "no rod is worth your life, don't take unecessary risks" yada, yada, but the other part of me thinks I'd have done exactly the same in your shoes. Well done for a safe outcome. Phew! (y)

What a result! Great work (y)

Great write up and well done on your new PB. Top work. (y)

Nice session. Beats being stuck indoors ?

What a bumper catch! Very well fished ?

Top dangling! Good work. A productive night on the beach (y)
