Beach casting

How far do I need to cast to catch the fish, is a question I often hear!
Well you need to know where the food, shelter and fish are. Research the species your fishing for and look for areas where they may gather. Cod hunt closer to the shore at night, Bass will hunt for bait […]

The Off Ground Cast
Start off facing the direction you want the sinker to travel, twist your body 180 degrees putting your weight on the back leg. Put a small bend in the back leg and put the rod about 60 degrees further around. The rod should be 240 degrees from the direction you want to […]

I have been looking at simple ways to improving catch rates, and finally I have got an answer. It’s really simple, and you can do it from your living room, on stormy days.

These two places are great fishiing marks so I thought I would go and check them out after the worst part of the storm. The waves were massive, I would suggest the wave you can see […]

As you know I would like my KAYAK to fish from. This will add a new dimension to my regular fishing. But I want to make my fishing as pure as possible.
By pure I want to make it more precise, go searching for species using tackle as light as possible and really target fish. I […]

I thought I would share a few BASS fishing tips with you all.

Use the lightest tackle the conditions and location will allow.
Use simple rigs.
Fish in the areas that may hold Bass. Look for gullies, tidal currents, backwash, changes in the sea bed.
Fish the water. Don’t just cast to the same spot, work the water, cast […]

After you have been fishing, rinse your reels in fresh water to get rid of salt, grit and other deposits.
Allow the reel to dry in a well ventilated area. For protection place it into a sock. When its in the foot of the sock, twist the sock and pull it back through its self, making […]
