Quick question for the local lads. What is the underwater obstruction at the Buckle on Seaford beach? I've seen the sign for it but have never fished at the Buckle but have been considering it. Would just like to know the extent etc.

I believe its a pipe. Take a look here:- www.sussexseafishing.co.uk The guy that runs this site (Craig) spends a lot of time fishing up that way, and will almost certainly be able to tell you.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Rob, I know of the pipe you mention that's further along East but don't think it extends that far West.

Topcat - do you happen to know how far out it is?

I might be going that way tonight for a session, so perhaps I'll stop and have a look at the sign. On the other hand, I might be fishing Brighton tonight so won't be able to.

Rob, I've added a link to you site in my links section.

I done a night sesh there in january ,well about 500 yards east of there
and was getting snagged every cast at about 100 yards out. dont know if it was the underwater obstuction or a gill net but it was doing my head right in !

I think the late John Darling mentions a pipe at splash point between the groynes maybe 70m out, maybe this is what runs up the beach?

I think the snags are chalk ledges.

As Topcat says, I think it is a wreck. I may have a drive over there later and see if I can find out.

Ive done a fair bit of diving out there. Some big chalk gullys, drop offs and under scours.
