Berry Head, Devon, South Hams shore fishing

A great mark into cool deep water. You need to be real careful getting down as its very steep.
Pollock and Mackerel are caught here as well as Wrasse just shy of double figures. Bass can be caught, try letting a float be taken in the tide, although not a common catch.
Berry head Quarry holds similar […]

Shore fishing mark - Ladram Beach, East Devon

In the summer it’s a very popular beach and hard to […]

Interestingly, […]

I have spent a lot of time spinning from the beach and find that dusk and […]

Perranuthnoe sea fishing

Heading back towards Helston from Penzance brings you across this fishing beach. A lovely mark with a great sandy beach! Lug and fish baits work well in this area for Bass, Dog fish, Ray and Turbot.
The locals comment on how well this beach fishes on a low tide, bucking the normal trend.

Marazion beach fishing

This long strip of sand runs from Marazion across St Michael mount to Penzance. The Penzance end has some tunnels running under the railway line and fresh water comes out of them attracting all sorts to the beach, especially good for Bass. Towards the Marazion end of the beach the ground becomes a bit more […]
