Rock/Daymer Bay help

Leadzep · Aug 21, 2013

Hi
Im staying in Rock for a few days soon. I am really pushed for space in the car. Will prob try plugging around the rocks to right of Daymer but Im also thinking of fishing baits on bottom for Bass n Bream. Never fished baits here before and need to know if I can get away with a couple of lighter rods and 2-3oz breakout weights or am I going to need my beachcasters and 5-6ozs to combat tide?
I may have to walk from Rock to Daymer if wife takes car out. Is the small bay between Rock car park and the dunes to left of Daymer worth a go?

Sorry its another one of those posts.
Cheers

Anywhere along that side of the river is worth a go mate , you'll have to Google the tide tables to see what tides you'll be fishing but id say 3-5 oz will be ok ,

hi. I am down here on holiday at the moment. I have fished here a bit in the past and not needed much lead. I also dont think a particuarlt big cast is needed, which helps. I watched an old fella fishing at daymer bay once. he was bait fishing with peeler crab at the rocks just to the right of the beach. he was just doing a 20 or 30 yard lob and pretty much touch legering using a light bomb. he was catching nice bream. this was at low tide so he would be landing on the sandy bottom. at high tide you would need a long cast to get across the rough ground or be prepared to loose tackle!

Ledzep,

I have an annual break down there in November. Fishing can be good just round the point at porthilly too, but like K-O-S says anywhere thorough there is good.

Best of luck

I was there last Wednesday mate. We had a couple of bass on ragworm. Saw a nice Gilthead caught about 3.5 pound.
