Brixham Breakwater, Devon, South Hams. Shore fishing Mark

This mark once had the reputation of being the best shore Conger mark on the South coast. 50Lb eels were taken on a regular basis – times have changed!

Plaice, Dabs and Wrasse can be taken when bottom fishing. The usual peir species can also be taken on float gear, including small pollock, gars, mackerel.

The Mullet fishing can be superb at this location. I have also seen it so full with non feeding fish you could have almost walked across them. The typical method is plenty of ground bait, light float tackle baited with mackerel skin or bread. Early risers should catch the most!!
