Heading down there tomorrow with some old fishing mates. Taking a selection of baits including fresh peeler crab . Fishing the flood tide up to HW ar about 2330. Forecast is looking good with a slight SW breeze. All the indications are positive so I'm hoping to put up a positive catch report on...

Portuguese Man of War washed up. One of many . Deadly things even when dead. 4 hour session with the Novice and another new friend from the Men's Shed angling group, Gordon. Gordon is returning to sea angling after many years away. His rod bears the Woolworth brand name on it WINFIELD , pretty...

Hi , the wife and I are planning a driving holiday to Scotland next September. I have got a basic itinerary set out already but I'm looking at a general fishing charter day out from either Mull, Oban or Ulapool . Some suggestions as to boats that cater for individuals with equipment for hire...

For once the weather forecast was correct :rolleyes: easterly winds and continuous rain from 9pm meant that weather conditions were against us from the start. The mark was a new one for me and the novice. I'd carried out a recce earlier in the day and had had a good brief from my bait provider...

This whole trip had a big question mark hanging over it from the off :rolleyes: Owing to some fishing commitments of their own my bait supplier had to deliver 1.5lb of quality lug worm on Saturday. Really annoyed with myself that by Monday morning it had turned to a mushy pile :mad: Just didn't...

With a decent size tide and hopefully decent weather , yesterday afternoon saw us heading once again to ,what is now becoming, a favourite venue for two 70+ sea anglers. Two rods each;and I'm pleased to report that Veals handled the issue of the broken reel very well and Graham is now using a...

o_O More like a CHAMBER OF HORRORS:rolleyes: If you are of a nervous disposition or easily upset please read no further . The venue was once again a north Gower surf beach. HW 0300 ish with a 6.1 mtrs tide. Light south westerly wind with a 6% chance of rain through the night (That's what the MET...

I shouldn't have gone :oops: Graham , my fishing buddy, was very keen to get out and against my better judgement and 35 years worth of experience I gave in and arranged to meet him on our local surf beach . Why didn't I want to go you may ask? The tides are huge right now 8.4 mtrs on the local...

Just been sorting out some traces ready for a beach session this afternoon and I got to wondering about snood lengths ? The scenario is this . Shallow sandy snag free beach , long casts are not required , fishing a flooding tide on the what might be the biggest tide of the year , target species...

Yesterday afternoon saw me and my fishing buddy Graham heading to one of my favourite marks in west Wales . It's on a tidal river upstream from a very large Haven. ;) Bait was about 30 crabs mix of peelers and softies which we were fishing on fairly long pulley rigs . I packed my lure gear as...

Morning all, fished Llangenith Beach yesterday HW 2016 with VooDooMan one rod each lots of black lug thanks to Jack & Co they where huge. The beach was in pristine condition, slow rolling incoming tide clear, warm water and a SW breeze. There where 7 anglers in total on the beach including...

Fished 4 hours in the darkness last night. HW 0200 ish 5.9 mtr tide. Bitterly cold with rain & sleet and the wind from the north west. Hard session for both us as I haven't set up in the dark for years and my fishing mate had never done it before. Two rods each with fresh black lug , clams and...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-56593198 I know they have been around the UK for a while now but this to be a positive step for Welsh sea anglers to get the chance to catch & release this iconic fish. I have a feeling the price of a charter is going to be out of reach for many Welsh anglers .

I hope :) And not all with the same result. :rolleyes: Last night saw me venture out to my local beach , well within the 5 mile limit , armed with some awesome fresh black lug and some bits and pieces of fishy baits. On the beach and set up for about 1700ish plan was to fish the flood tide until...

Seems like I'm on a bit of roll at the moment and I'm certainly not complaining . Both keepers but as it's December they went back .Besides I don't really enjoy eating bass. Last chance saloon session today with my new novice fishing mate. Quality lug from @crabbiepatties again, thanks...

So the question is in the title. For more years than I care to remember I have always used a multi for boat fishing and always enjoyed using them for all types of boat fishing and until recently have also used them on the beach but switched to FS on the beach a couple of years ago. In lots of...

Two cracking flounder for frying pan . The biggest must have been 2lbs . Both full of roe . Hard work catching them though. Lug worm from the tackle shop was nowhere as good I normally get from my private supplier and the rag worm were huge and not normally my bait of choice. A medium size tide...

With a smallish tide and HW at 2200 and given that the stiff breeze was mainly westerly it seemed an ideal mark to try . Previous catch reports had been helpful in regards to the car park and what species we were likely to catch. Armed with some really good fresh lug , once again provide by(...

Gents, need some help on fishing the above location . Been down there a lot of times but never with the rods and a few years ago now. Big tides this Friday with high water at 1630. Looking to fish a few hours either side of HW . Need some advice as to where on the beach, what baits and what type...
