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

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

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

Top marks for tenacity!

Amazing stuff, well done!

Cracking bass! Interested in how he prepped it

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?

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

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...

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

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...

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...
