Hi all, i was wondering if the sea defence/causeway off ramsy island (the long rock path thing, colour is black) is any good for fishing, dont realy see alot of people down there

 

[stubber]

do you mean foulney (turn into carpark before roa) if you do then try walkin down it its a bloody long way lol
it used to be good for bas in me dads day 60s/70s :wheelchai but ive never fished it so i dont know

Be careful if your going to try walking out to Foulney... know a few that have got into bother both when its got dark and when bad weather comes in ...should still be good for the odd Bass ...particularly if you go live baiting with a float.

thought for a minute you were heading for pembroke area young'n. as said, its a long treck out onto foulney, but its a good spot to fish if you travel light. the drawback is that if you get out towards the end on a nice day, and the weather changes, you will get a bit damp by the time you get back. some good marks there, and you might see some of the local stalwarts fishing on the best places.:secret:

There are matches held on the black wall on the opposite side of the channel to where I think you are talking about mate,east of Biggar village but only on the low tides. Is Ramsey Island part of the dock system at the end of Cavendish Dock Rd., near to the Ramsden dock gates?

To get back to your original question

Give it a go ...there use to be the odd Low Water match down there as Interceptor pointed out You should get into same species as when your fishing the channel ...with the chance of the odd silver

Have you thought any more about a bit of lure fishing down at the bottom of Walney or even here on Ramsey Island

Was out with variety rubber (shad) and plastic (popper) lures fishing it in on Monday night till it got too dark to see what I was doing
Not a sniff ...but quiet suprised at the size of the surf for such a small tide..
Maybe after this weekend I'll be able to concentrate on lure / live baiting and get over to Piel / Foulney still want my first cod(ling) of the year though
