Lure fishing for GT’s and other monsters in Oman.

By Sean McSeveny On February 28, 2015 · Add Comment · In Fishing Abroad, Reports
Late last year I was out in Southern Oman, fishing with the excellent No Boundaries operation. The aim of the game was to try out some new tackle, have some good laughs, and most importantly, catch some world class fish! I was fishing with some Australian mates Tim van Bockxmeer (who I’d previously fished with [...]

How to rebuild your rod on a budget.

By Leo Toms On February 26, 2015 · 3 Comments · In Tips
Over the winter period my beach casting rod has been used and abused. As a result some of the rings have become damaged or broken. I decided that the rod needed a thorough overhaul and replace all the rings completely. I shopped around for some prices to have the rings professionally repaired and was shocked [...]

What to do to keep away the fishing blues?

By Sean McSeveny On February 23, 2015 · 4 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
We are in the depths of fishing despair, or at least I feel I am. I did get out a couple of times last week. Once doing some fishing lessons in Axemouth, which was nice, especially to see a different area and recce some Mullet and bass fishing for the summer. I also managed a [...]

Spain is one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world, especially for British tourists. What makes Spain so special is its weather, culture and amazing beaches. One other thing that make Spain a top destination for a summer vacation is fishing. Fishing is fantastic in Spain, especially deep sea fishing from most of [...]

One week closer to the start of the Plaice fishing

By Sean McSeveny On February 20, 2015 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
The title of this post is my attempt to feel positive about the fishing at the moment. Lets be honest, there is not a lot happening along most of the Dorset shoreline. However you may have seen Leo’s short Poole report yesterday, where he came across a couple of anglers that managed to find some [...]

Fishing may be on the up.

By Leo Toms On February 19, 2015 · 2 Comments · In Poole Harbour, Reports
With the fishing fairly quiet in the harbour and surrounding areas. I had decided to earn a few brownie points and use this lean time to concentrate on the house. Do all those jobs that I had been promising to do all summer and into early winter!! That’s not say that I haven’t been down to the harbour shores [...]

At least there are still Wrasse around.

By Sean McSeveny On February 16, 2015 · 1 Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Despite a bit of a blow on Friday, the Codling didn’t show this weekend, as I hoped they might have done. That really is it from Chesil for a few weeks until the Plaice start to show. Just because there are very few fish on Chesil, it doesn’t mean that everywhere is as bad.   [...]

Scratching around for fish

By Sean McSeveny On February 13, 2015 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
It’s that LRF fishing time of year again. I know when the fishing really slows down, when I start to break out my LRF fishing gear in an attempt to get a fishy fix. But lets be honest, its better to be out fishing than sat at home watching Scotland lose another game of Rugby. [...]

Wading into it – how to pick the perfect pair of waders

By Sean McSeveny On February 12, 2015 · Add Comment · In Clothing, Reviews, Tips
There was a time when waders were normally only worn by fly fishermen on rivers, but these days I see anglers using them in lots of different situations. They are pretty common amongst fishermen in the North East, targeting the Cod from the rock ledges, and I spend more than half my fishing time in [...]

Pike fishing in January, is it a happy new year?

By Sean McSeveny On February 11, 2015 · 1 Comment · In Freshwater Fishing, Reports
Hello again, here is my review for Fishing Tails of a mostly cold and bitter month that is January. As I’m sure you all know this is the time of the year when the weather really sorts the men out from the boys and even more so for the braver Sea anglers. Still whatever you [...]

Fladen Maxximus 11300 Spinning Reel review

By Sean McSeveny On February 10, 2015 · 5 Comments · In Reels, Reviews
Is it possible to buy a good spinning or lure reel for under £50? In this review we are going to take a look at the Fladen Maxximus 11300 reel, and see if it can step up to the mark. The main question is how you define the term “good”. For some it may be [...]

In need of a fishing fix.

By Sean McSeveny On February 9, 2015 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
The shore fishing has died right off. It was going to happen eventually, and I have been predicting that it would for a couple of weeks now. We have hit that time of year where the shore fishing turns really slow. Most of the Codling have gone and the Whiting are plentiful but small. The [...]

Will those Codling hang on for another weekend?

By Sean McSeveny On February 6, 2015 · 4 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
It seems that someone has forgotten to tell the Codling that it is time to go. Normally by February the Codling have long moved off chasing the sprat shoals, but this year we are still seeing regular catches of them, especially towards the western end of Chesil and the deep water marks at Bridging Camp.

Just when I thought it was over.

By Sean McSeveny On February 2, 2015 · 4 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I had pretty much written off most of the beach fishing in Dorset for the next 6 weeks. However last weekend proved that it is not quite the case yet. The fishing has certainly quietened down from the beach, with your average angler, struggling to catch much more than a few Pout and Rockling. Plenty [...]
