Boat angling

Please don’t laugh but consider this about mackerel.
I have been prompted to write this after reading a few UK sea angling forums and reading what people have said about our humble mackerel.
The Atlantic Mackerel Scomber scombrus is a pelagic fish (mid water) which shoal in great numbers around the UK coast in late spring. Huge [...]

I have added a new category for Sea fishing shore marks.
I have great knowledge of marks in Devon, Cornwall, The Isle of Man and Dorset so that’s where I will start. However when it comes to the rest of the country, I am starting to struggle.
Ramsgate, Dover, Sea Brook, Fleetwood, The Tyne, Whitby, Lowestoft are all areas [...]

I have had further discussions about the best Bass live bait with a few Devon and Cornwall Bass fishermen.
It seems that the current preferred bait has to be the live prawn. There are many ways as I have discussed before on how to catch these animals so I won’t go into much detail on this [...]

OK, Razor Shell is the same as Razor fish. I am getting about 2 people a day asking me if they are the same beast.
They seem to be known in different parts of the country by either name but the Latin name that stays the same for the genus is Solenidae.
3 species are found around [...]

This is a very old method of fishing which seems to be rearing its head again.
The basic method as I understand it is,
The kite is attached to your main reel line, at a length of about 50 to 100 meters you put a 3 way swivel, one loop goes to the kite, one loop back [...]

Almost any lure will catch Bass !
The modern Lures made by Rapala, Abu, Redgill which are designed to look like fish with colouration and movement fish very well indeed. In fact most modern style lure are very productive in the right conditions. Many lures when spinning simulate an injured fish which provides the Bass with [...]
