How are you. yeah I have been out as much as I can fit in. Been getting some decent whiting (Not everyone’s favourite fish but I love it). Had them up around the 2lb mark.Plenty of them as well. Few cod showing in the Camel as well. Some decent ones in the Fowey as well. Been red mullet caught in the Fowey as well up to 2 1/2lb but I can’t catch one of the bloody things. I’m on a flounder hunt at the minute but I can’t get one above 1-10. Have you and Fin been out. We’re currently looking for a new lurcher but it’s like trying to find a unicorn. I know where there was a few hiding on the Fowey if you are interested mate. Ill happily send you a Google pin, couldn't guarantee they're still there mind 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I usually fish the Fowey for other things down near the mouth and in the town areas. I have tried for flounder up near Golant but didn’t get any. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mole trapper 1,703 Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 Indeed. It's just quietly burbling out of the ground. On the hill directly above it (around 100 yds) there is the remains of stone huts and an incredible burial chamber. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

About 6 3/4 been there, got the t-shirt I've got my eyes set on doing minions to davidstow then the six miles of tarmac from there down to here. Roughly 22 miles the route I've mapped out.
