I have just found a couple of old photographs of my Best Lure caught Bass. I have written about the day here “ Bass on plug“. These photos were taken a few years ago before digital images and I have since had to scan them so the quality is poor, but so is the fashion sense!!! Edit: since I added this photo I have had a call from a friend...
“What can I catch in the sea with a baited spinner†Is the question of the day. Almost any sea species will take a baited spinner including Pollock, Mackerel, Bass, Flounder, Wrasse, Gurnard and thin lipped Mullet. Some species mentioned here like Bass and Mackerel would take the spinner baited or not, the Mullet will only take a baited spinner and generally earlier in the season. I guess the spinner...
“Where can I find a ocean kayak prowler angler review” Is a question I seem to be getting every day at the moment, well the answer is here on this blog ocean kayak prowler angler review If you look at the bottom of that page there are some reviews from some American kayak anglers as well.
Well the weather was looking nice this evening, the tide was dropping which is not the best tide state in my opinion for fishing a new mark but I had 4 hours and I decided to go Saltwater fly fishing from my RTM disco kayak. I am hoping for some sport with mackerel and gar fish if not a few bass and pollock this season, so I have been tweaking...
I have been asked by a reader about “A good UK based resources covering the growing interest in saltwater flyfishingâ€. Sadly and to be honest there are only two sites that cover this of value in my opinion. One is a dedicated SWFF site the other is a forum and I guess most of you know the sites before I mention them here. http://www.ukswff.co.uk/ - is a great site that...
I have been wanting to get the Kayak into Falmouth bay for a while, I have fished St Antony and the actual Helford river, but never Dennis head, Falmouth bay and The mouth of the Helford. This trip was a minor disaster and I will explain why. Friday the 8th was a red hot day and on the late evening of the 7th I decided that it was perfect for...
I spent a few hours hunting the Mullet near Gweek on the Helford river yesterday. I used a bucket of bran, brad crumbs and mashed mackerel for a ground bait. I arrived about 3 hrs before High tide and littered the mud flats with ground bait. When the first of the water washed this ground bait away I carried on throwing more towards the same location. I hade a great...
I thought I should share this with you. Many of you will know all about rip currents and how dangerous they are when you are in the sea. They are a water flow created by the shape of the sea bed and the coast line where water rushes away from the beach and out to sea. I have highlighted the rip on this photograph. The reason I took the snap...
Hi there and thank you for reading this post, as over the past month we have seen a huge spike in traffic. We are seeing a massive amount of traffic suddenly coming to this site and I just want to say thank you. We are seeing people staying here for longer, the kayak and beach casting sections being the most popular and we are in the top ten for google...
I look forward to the month of June. Many of the Summer fish species are now here and waiting to be caught with open mouths. Fish start to hunt nearer the surface and the sound of screeching beach casting reels is heard as Bass power away when they take your bait. Seas calm and the Kayak and Saltwater fly fishermen amongst can start to really wet our lines. The sun...
