If anyone is thinking of fishing the bar be aware that there is a net running the entire length of the bar, this was last night (17th) had to fish the first beach, had fish though, 5 species.
don't know if it will still be there tonight.

Shocking behaviour.

Thanks Tim, am heading down there later so will let you know if it is still there.

thought Id mention it as it would spoil someones evening otherwise, it's less than 50 metres off the beach

Cant you drag it in and burn it!!! Typical selfish behaviour from the less intelligent among us!! Hope you contacted the EA mate!!!
Cheers Steve.

If it was the marker buoys I saw, it was about 300mts. If it was 50mts off the beach my casting is worse than I thought. Never hooked it once. 6x LSD and 1 whiting for me last night. Beautiful night though, shooting stars, big moon and never seen the sea so flat down there.

you must of been over the gunwalloe end, under the house you could almost touch it, the orange bouys were the beginning, middle and end, in between were a row of small black floats which were coming into the beach in an arc, you could almost pee on them under the house.

Sounds strange,any chance of a photo????? Ed,could it of been a pilchard net??????

Took a photo of the missus (fishing before anyone asks) may have the first buoy in it, I'll look for it on the phone, will post it later if pos

I was. Could see orange marker out from the first of the rock outcrops. As I only got down there as the light was starting to fade, that thing I thought was a cormorant sitting on the water could have been a black float. Sorry, but age its setbacks, impaired vision, hearing and memory. Still, back on topic. Add the chopped oranges, half the sugar and boil....... oops! Told you so.
Well, as much as it may have bxggared the beach up, look on the bright side. At least that's another excuse for not catching much.

here the general direction of the net in question

 

[Kernowcodder]

Just great that isnt it. What with the high hopes for the winter season and all that....
What say we arrange a meet, get the boys down there, snag it somehow and have the biggest game of tug of war seen this side of the tamar and haul the thing in. Next stage would involve fire.....

Im sorry I understand and respect the need for commercial fishing but that takes the ****! Looks like the Chesil trips will be back on.

 

[squidge218]

i agree with that everyone get down there with a rod cast hook into it and haul it in !

 

[gazzer01278]

surly someone has the bottle to remove this net if it turns out to be illegally placed, come on you boaters and any more put in its place found this beach a few years back no fish then but lovely beach and deep water chisel like.

 

[bassmad]

Was down there last night and couldn't see anything but it was getting dark, didn't snag anything, or catch much for that matter. Also never seen it so flat there.

 

[Batenberg]

small boat sharp knife!!

if that was at one of me fishing spots the first thing i would do is swim /wade out to it tie on a bit of rope and pull it in then have a bbq on the beach with whats in it then nice fire to keep ya warm with the net cos whoever put it there wont do it again ??????????????
nothing against commys but this is taking the p a bit dont ya think
lucky there aint any kids swimming around

 

[squidge218]

i think some one needs to go out to it in a boat and cut it up !!

 

[Malters]

Swimming at the bar?!
Not a good idea methinks. Even if it is flat.

 

[Poughill Reef?]

What if the net is legal?

It's like someone coming along and burning your car cos it's parked on their road.

If someone came along and stole your tools and ability to work where would you be? Think about it. If anyone destroys another man's property out of jealousy (Because of a hobby) then they deserve what they get.
