hi jambo, just stumbled across these posts this morning - I would also be interested to hear a recednt catch report for the Island. Noticed a few folk lure fishing on the sth east coast on this mornings high tide ... looked pretty cold to me!!

You mean up by Green Island, or along the front?

I reckon North coast is better in the winter, and easier from the piers etc.

more like b/w green island and gorey - have heard there were some big bass caught on the nth coast just b/f christmas on lures. There seem to be some rays etc. being caught from Plemont Point. Way too cold today ...

Depending on when your planning from September to December is best and Jan and Feb are normally quiet months so you would have to try harder then.

If you are thinking of coming now you should be able to catch Pollack, Pout, Ray, Mullet, Wrasse, Bass in double figures (possibly record breaking from the boats), sole, a late black or red bream in Jan, garfish, dogfish, bull huss and plaice.

Apparently 2005 sea temp was 1degree up on normally so it could be a good winter unless the colds spells have re-arranged things.

The above applies to Guernsey but I'm sure Jersey and Alderney are similar.

For Guernsey we have this privately run site and the forums are fairly active with news of catches:

I've not found a Jersey site for the same but Jambo might know of one?
