Nice , I was thinking about shooting off in an hour fish the flood .plenty off peeler in the fridge straight to work then

 

[transporter boy]

I had my 1st bass of the year last night well 2 actually, only schoolies, both came to fresh lug which i dug in the morning, so to me that's more rewarding when you haven't had to pay for it, mind you you dont half stink after:yucky: i'll try and use the rest of it tonight.:clap2:

 

[the-fox]

sounds like a perfect evening rich well done:clap3:

Gutted...... I knew I should have gone to whitsands last night. Me and jayb decided to go to downderry instead to fish a mark we have never tried. It was a waste of time because there was a lot of weed being blown in. Had some beautiful big freshly dug lug and one doggie for jayb was the final tally.

Whitsands one day this week I am thinking. May be see you out rich.

Went snorkeling sunday, near Lantic bay, and came face to mask with a Bass I'd estimate to be around 8lbs. There were schoals of sandeel about so I'd guess he was after those. Also some big wrasse (4lbs?) and pretty big dogfish.

well done rich, i was down f range with my old man last night, had one small bass and a few bites. had to buy bait from st beaudex, which wasn't up to there usual high standerds, no where near as good as fresh. The surf was a lot smaller down there only a foot, if that. going to try to get out later in the week, but the tides are going to be late for the rest of the week, so might not make high tide.

did you have most after high? we left about 9.30 cos the old man doesn't like fishing in the dark (he's from up north).

well done again, look's like you'll do 100 easy!!

I was fishing just round the corner from lantic bay on saturday (lansallos) and my mate saw a bass cruising through the rocks which he thinks could have been a double figure fish. Sounds like this bit of coast is well worth a hard fish for the silver beasts.

How's the water at the moment for snorkelling? I aint been out yet this year, to be honest because it still seems a little cold but I think the next sunny spell I will have to get wet. I will be wearing my hood though!!! The water has been crystal though so I bet the vis was awesome.

 

[Skeletor]

grrrrrrrr n1 m8, knew i should have gone with ya, maybe next time lol

 

[Moriarty123456]

Hey Deano.

It was mighty cold - I've only got a 'Trago Mills special' summer wetsuit (!) but the vis made up for it.

I've caught a bass Llansallos way, and now I've seen this biggie I'll be back! Where are you based? I'm in Mixtow (Nr Fowey).

 

[craftycatch]

there was quite a lot of weed around down FR there too, that fine light green stuff. i'm sure if that wasn't there we would have had a couple more.

were thinking of going later in the week if your up for it, but will have to fish low water up by the looks of it, due to the late tides,

would the fishing be any good on the push?

take it easy, sam

I'm from liskeard.

Your a braver man than me going out this time of year and with a trago wetsuit...... well thats near insanity!!!

Think I will have to venture out soon though. Its a hard life having so many hobbies, never know whether to snorkel or fish? I think my next investment will have to be a camel or a pack horse. I shall name him Curtis:g:

[Rod'n'reel]

Nice one Rich, i was tempted to knock my gilthead trip on the head and tag along with you glad i went with my instinct , but looks like it would have been a good day either way

 

[borntofishforcedtowork]

sorry to bother u lot but im currently at plymouth university and am a keen fisherman. Ive fly fished for many years now and have heard about the saltwater fly fishing action u can get down towards this area. Heard u can catch mullet, bass, pollock etc etc and am tempted to give it a go. However i kno of very few spots and travelling far isnt really an option due to being a skint student and not having a car. New1 have ne ideas on where to try? Id like to give this ago although im considerin just givin the fly fishing a miss and buying a cheap sea fishing outfit but not sure what to get.
Any ideas and comments wud b greatfull.

I think your best bet is to ask the same question in the Salt fly, lure and plugging section.
