Hi all, there's some local information here (http://www.castandcatch.com/venues/morcambe.htm)

Seems it can be quite a dangerous place at times!

Hi Pete,
thanks very much for the info,went off the stone jetty in the end,got a codling and the father in law got a flounder.had a good day all in all,was a bit windy but the scenery is nice up that way and with a couple of fish,a good day was had.
Cheers Scotty.

Welcome mate, if you need to know more about venues in the north west , just ask, I don't know them all by any means, but the lads that i meet from all over the north west , between them, will ;)

We're hitting the 'dead zone' now where most of the winter species are migrating to pastures new, but, come the end of March, there will be the bass showing enough in numbers to go out and get a couple. hopefuly :)

Hi Scott & Pete,

I'm just getting back into fishing after a lay off due to illness. Your info and link was useful, Pete, cheers.

Pete, now it is getting warmer, what is the best bait for bass around Morecambe?

hi chaps

squid and lug cocktails work well for the bass , plus morecambe is not a bad place for the plaice some nice fish caught of the half moon creasant think thats what its called not fished morecombe for a while ,should start to pick up in the next month or so as pete said .

The area you are on about is Half Moon Bay at heysham. This is best fished over low water for bass and flatties with odd dogfish at night. Best baits are peeler crab as worm baits do not last long due to shrimps and crabs stripping hooks within seconds of them touching bottom.

cheers for that greatwhite as i 've said bin a long time since i've bin to morecombe
usualy stick to the fylde or arnside if i'm goin that way
