You will get some great advice on here mate. Good luck and look forward to reading your catch report

 

You'll get a mix good chance of dabs, plaice, flounder the odd Ray's do show too also you might get some mackerel, garfish are starting to show in small numbers

 

Cheers guys. Think I might have one rod for the flatties and leave one out for the chance of something bigger. Are there quite a few rays comeing out then?

 

No not too many ray's but always the chance of 1 or 2 you might get some herrings on float and mackerel, also there's a few dogs around too I spotted a couple walking down towards the arm on Sunday morning

 

With rays going for 1.35 a kilo on landing that's why there's loads around now
Good for us crap for comms

 

I have sent roverp5 (Gee a txt) for latest catch reports info

 

Plaice, Flounders and Schoolies were the order of the day today... The water looked lovely tonight at dusk but sadly I couldn't stay awake any longer... Normally I would not favour Rag but Lug and Rag both seem to be working well at the moment.... I've had a couple of Undulate's in the last week, both on Squid. Also Soles have started to show, even in daylight but the bigger ones seem to be just after dark. There were some Mackerel caught at the weekend but I didn't see any today... possibly coz no-one really tried for them!

Will update on here in a couple of days.... Gee.

 

Did someone mention mackerel!!

 

Ah lee's hat!! That would suit him

 

Hi guys,
Just managed to get this Friday off and I'm thinking of spending the day at shoreham west arm. Only problem is ive never fished it during the day, usually go in the winter in the evening. Just wondering what I can expect this time of year on the arm?
Thanks

hi mate, loads of plaice about at the moment garfish just started the odd dab and they say a few herring, but I think these may be shad. June should se loads more species and can include some very large smoothhounds at night on crab regards Nick.

 

Cheers everyone, really appreciate the advice. Really looking forward to it now, hopefully I get a good mix of fish. Ill let you all know how I get on

 

Can you night fish arm if so how much is it to fish

 

Yes, £3 for first rod £1 for 2nd

 

West arm

 

and they say a few herring, but I think these may be shad.

They ain't no Shad....

They're Herrings, I caught a couple earlier this evening.

 

How did the arm fish today any idea?
Was the may rot a problem or are you out beyond it?
Regards
Colin

There's a bit in the water but not too much for Herrings to spot Sabiki's in it...

Mainly flat fish and Schoolies during daylight...

Also had a couple of Squid on the outside over High....

 

Hmm need to drown some worms, see you tomorrow!

 

How's it fishing Gee? I'll be down tomorrow afternoon probably around between 3 & 4pm

 

Well went down the arm yesterday afternoon with my lad and fished the flood tide for around 3 hours then the ebb for 2.1/2 hours until around 9pm met some really lovely people down there, but unfortunately even though we had 4 rods between us we blanked unless you count a small spider crab and 1 very small herring that fell off.
but we did do some ground baiting for future fisherman so hopefully will bring some fish in
