Fished in front of the martello park area last night .
Once again it was both rods on pulley droppers with various fish and squid combinations.
Rays the intended target I fished the whole flood tide. The sea state was flat.
No wind no weed and no rays!
An hour before high tide a blank was on the cards. So I lost my nerve and turfed out a loop rig with some dubious looking black lug tipped with sprat.
Had a couple of blank saving dabs and a whiting.
Not a prolific session and I couldn't even blame that crooked casting Nutsyfish coz he wasn't allowed out!
A random question. I'm looking for a bit of advice. Can anybody recommend a car park to fish Brighton beach, that doesn't involve remortgaging the house.

You mean you forgot to take your good luck charm... 😂

Nice size dab though (thumbs up)

Did you have bait on the hook or was it just on the seaglo beads?

Nutsy

Not sure about Brighton but just down the road at Seaford there's plenty of free parking, ideal for those spring plaice.

We'll take a orange highlighter and spot on the dabs buddy...

Seaford has free parking. Park in the main car park on your left just past the sailing club, then just simply cross the road n ya on the beach,

Thanks for the heads up Seaford is sounding far more appealing than Brighton.

 

[Scuttlebutt]

One note about Seaford. Don't fish straight over the road from the carpark as it's used by a swimmers group and quite a few can turn up there.

 

[Nutsyfish]

Is the good spot there called the buckle?

Invaluable info Thanks very much 👍

Nutsy

Yes the buckle is the know mark but I have fished a long way west of it and still done well. I like a bit of space so I'm not sharing fish with those close to me.

 

[Nutsyfish]

Thank you Mr scuttlebutt

I totally agree with John, go west of the car park. Walk along the top and at least 100 yards past the sailing school, as if the weather is good they will often launch yachts.

Lovely beach to fish, just be aware of the gentlemen sitting in cars near to the public toilets after dark! 🤔

Park at the Marina, in the multistory car park. Parked there last year and there was no charge for two days.

Thanks buddy been looking at the marina as well.

 

[Pat the Prawn]

you can fish off there but very heavily fished. When I was there last year it was rammed! West side of Marina bottom is low chalk reefs with gravel/sand gullies. East of Marina more of a rocky shore. Have fun!
