    Skin reactions to bait

    Hi all, been a bit absent from sea fishing recently. Back in summer 2019 I started getting skin reactions to bait, specifically Ragworm and squid, I never wore gloves, to be fair I also never cleaned them, just wiped them on a towel. To my detriment it seems! But while out sole fishing with my...

    Another rod....

    So I was cruising Gumtree at the weekend and noticed a Grauvell Vertix Gravity KW MT450 local to me, he had never used it since purchasing it in a closing down sale at Veals last year. I don't need any more rods, but for what it cost it was a no brainer to me. With a full set of kwags fitted too...

    South West Bristol Channel 24/10/20 neaps

    So this weekend didn't look particularly great, loads of rain and very neap tides. But my brothers were visiting and we fancied getting out for a bit despite the less than perfect tides. So we went out this evening to fish an hour down and a couple of hours up. Frozen baits only, squid, bluey...

    South West Bristol Channel 20/10/20

    Ventured out Tuesday night to a nearby mark to fish high tide to fish 2hrs up and whatever I could down. Not been out a lot lately and having had 4 blanks if you ignore a few fish finger sized whiting I was keen to find a fish or two. Got myself some dug rag from reel fun in Portishead, very...
