Kayak fishing session with a Dexter Wedge
Just a quick note to tell you about a session I had last night. I was kayak fishing from Porthoustock the tide had just turned and was falling, the heat was going out of the sun and there was no wind at all.
I was using a Dexter wedge like a pirk, fishing it hard to the bottom and jigging it. I was looking for a Gurnard or anything else that might be there. I know that there are Gurnard there at the moment and in my opinion they are good eating.
I fished for about 3 hours until darkness changing the way I worked the lure by casting the dexter out and retrieving it across the sea bed. I managed one small Pollock but that was all.
There were people plugging and beach casting, the ones I spoke to also had caught very little. That made me feel a whole lot better!!
