Any of you somewhat fine gentlemen get out shore fishing? And what you catching at the moment Get on a few local facebook pages to yourself,visit the local tackle shops for whats being caught and as it goes the sea fishing mags do have tips to help folk on seasonal fish and how to catch them... I myself mainly fish for bass with lures and most of it is done from a little boat i own with a pal... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dont need to cast far at Ferrybridge, it's deep in close. I prefer the beaches around Chesil and if it has to be Chesil then Abbotsbury for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryaldinhio 4,136 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Anyone do owt around Hull/Grimsby or on humber estuary? Heard a few things that it's decent for cod at right time of year. Fancied giving it a go but know nothing about that type of fishing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Arry 18,590 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Been having a few Bream lately Guilt heads and an odd small Couches Bream. Little bonus Scallop picked up on the low water. Cheers Arry 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
