A mixed weekend of fishing

By Sean McSeveny On May 26, 2014 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
As is so typical on a bank holiday weekend the weather was not great for most of it. Though it did improve for Monday and I was very surprised to see the water clear so quickly after it got fairly coloured on Saturday and Sunday with the onshore brisk winds.  I was incredibly surprised to [...]

The effect of water temperature on fishing

By Sean McSeveny On May 23, 2014 · 1 Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
The importance of water temperature on fishing can not be ignored. Temperature is one of the main triggers of fish movement and this is clearly evident this year. The water temperature is 2.4 degrees warmer at the moment that it was this time last year. Fishing over this same bank holiday last year was pretty [...]

In this article Lee Mannion looks at some of the rigs and techniques he uses for fishing from his Kayak. Although Lee lives in the north east and fishes mainly for Cod these rigs and methods can be used anywhere in the country. When fishing from a kayak the rigs I use are extremely simple, [...]

It is time to get the lures out

By Sean McSeveny On May 16, 2014 · 4 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Lure fishing for Bass, or any other species is by far my favourite method of fishing. Its a light, mobile and sporting style that has given me a far greater success rate than any other method I have tried. This set of spring tides in May, normally heralds the start of the Bass fishing around [...]

I am delighted that Ben Wallbridge has agreed to write some articles for us. Ben works as Coast and Marine Ranger for Dorset county council and has been kayak fishing for almost five years, so he spends more time on or near the water than most of us. We will hopefully have many more articles [...]

Cinnetic Cautiva hybrid flexi tip surf rod review

By Sean McSeveny On May 14, 2014 · 3 Comments · In Reviews, Rods
The Cinnetic Cautiva is probably best described as a Continental style rod. I bought the rod back last August, when I was offered it by my local tackle shop. They had bought it as a demonstration model, to only find out a couple of weeks later that the distributor had decided not to import them [...]

A good fishing forecast

By Sean McSeveny On May 13, 2014 · 3 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
The fishing conditions are starting to look a lot better than they have been for some time. As predicted on Friday, fishing on Chesil was almost impossible over the weekend. However a number of marks fished pretty well, with Preston Beach being one of the better ones. Plenty of small Bass and Flounder were taken [...]

A poor weekend of fishing ahead

By Sean McSeveny On May 9, 2014 · 8 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I would love to say that the fishing forecast for this weekend is looking good, but its not. Chesil will be close to unfishable, and the water will be coloured. It is no sea to be going out on a boat and the Mullet have not shown up yet. So where can you go for [...]

Great Boat fishing all along the South Coast

By Sean McSeveny On May 8, 2014 · Add Comment · In Boat Fishing
The boat fishing just seems to get better by the week. With the exception of Mackerel and Plaice fishing, which is being affected by the May water, the early summer species are arriving by the day. This year the Bream fishing in this area really has kicked off early. The Bass are slowly moving from [...]

Ray time

By Sean McSeveny On May 7, 2014 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
As forecast last weekend, the May water has had a negative effect on a lot of the fishing on Chesil. However it does not seem to have put the Rays and Smoothound off. Wests Sea Angling club had a match on Chesil on Saturday, which they reported was hard going. However they did manage to [...]

What effect will the May water have on fishing

By Sean McSeveny On May 2, 2014 · 2 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Unfortunately the May water is back with us, but how much will this effect fishing as a whole? Without a doubt it does have a negative effect on a lot of fishing, and if you want to continue to successfully catch fish whilst it is around, you will most likely need to be more specific [...]
