any recommend somewhere local ish to cardiff for tonights high tide .. tried the foreshore once with not much joy so was looking for another ... barrage maybe ??

hi mate from what i've been told bout the barrage is that it fishes better on the smaller tides from low up float close in to the wall with head hooked king rag,but with the bigger tides try the knap 3 up and 3 down should be ok and chance of some rays to been a bit quiet lately but you never know lol hope this helps.

yeah thanks ... just decided to go the knap as i havent been there for a few weeks

out of interest what baits are they using down there , i used mackerel and squid on my last visit and drew a blank but did catch a 7lb bass the time before on mackerel

im new to fishing so i am learning as i go along

thanks

fish and squid seems to work... or sandeel wrapped in squid on a pennel.

good luck!

fished the knap afterwards .... was about 12 people there and i was the only person to catch i believe - a small 1lb bass - better than drawing a blank i suppose .....
