Spring Cod

By Sean McSeveny On March 31, 2015 · 5 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Spring Cod, Mackerel Plaice, they have all turned up on Chesil over the past couple of weeks. Ricky Piranhas took advantage of a break in the weather, and fished a rough Chesil to manage one of the spring Codling that we often see at this time of year. The spring run normally only lasts a couple of [...]

The Mackerel are back on Chesil.

By Sean McSeveny On March 27, 2015 · 3 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Are the Mackerel back on Chesil yet? Oh yes! Forget the Plaice, the Mackerel are back 🙂 To say I am happy to see the first of the Mackerel return after winter is an understatement. I know many of you are fixated on Plaice at the moment, but to me the return of the Mackerel [...]

Sandbanks the “Plaice” to be

By Leo Toms On March 26, 2015 · 3 Comments · In Poole Harbour, Reports
Further to my reports on the early plaice caught in February. This March has seen an explosion in the amount of plaice being landed both in numbers and size. All along the stretch of sandbanks from the jazz cafe to the harbour entrance. Plaice close to 4lb are being weighed in. I also heard of [...]

Spring tides are not always the best tides to fish.

By Sean McSeveny On March 23, 2015 · 3 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
A lot of people think that big spring tides are the best tides for fishing, well this weekend proved that it is not true for marks such as Chesil. What should have been a good weekend of Plaice fishing, turned out to be not so good for most people. The tide was moving so fast [...]

It is not all about the Plaice

By Sean McSeveny On March 20, 2015 · 3 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I know that Plaice fishing is in the forefront of most anglers mind at the moment, and I am certain that it is going to be busy from Abbotsbury to Cogden this weekend. With this in mind I have written a separate article just on Plaice which you can find at the bottom of the [...]

Plaice fishing on Chesil Beach

By Sean McSeveny On March 20, 2015 · 1 Comment · In Chesil Beach, Marks
Plaice fishing seems to be on everyones mind at the moment, and I have had loads of emails asking where is the best place to fish on Chesil for Plaice. Well you could do what Richard Lake did and head towards Ferrybridge, where he landed this Plaice, which was surprisingly plump and in great condition.  [...]

Fishing around Poole in the next few months

By Leo Toms On March 17, 2015 · 2 Comments · In Poole Harbour, Reports
I fished sandbanks last Saturday over the large spring tides. Hoping to bag myself an early spring plaice. All I ended up with was a small scorpion fish. These small fish are not poisonous but carry some wicked spines around the head and dorsal fin. It is best to use pliers or a disgorger,  or use [...]

Are the Plaice back on Chesil yet?

By Sean McSeveny On March 16, 2015 · 6 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Good news, the Plaice have started to return to Beaches all along the South Coast after their winter spawning. I was pretty sure that they would start to show in numbers towards the end of this week, but it seems I was a week out on my forecast, as quite a few were caught at [...]

The Mullet are back.

By Sean McSeveny On March 13, 2015 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Mullet fishing in the harbour, could be one of my highlights this weekend. I have heard reports from a reliable source that the Thin Lipped Mullet have moved back into Weymouth harbour. This fills me with excitement, as I love fishing for Mullet, especially with lures. I have included the main part of an article [...]

Seaspin Stria 95 – Review

By Adrian Crawford On March 11, 2015 · Add Comment · In Lure, Reviews
My second lure review and my second review on a Seaspin lure, and no I’m not on the payroll they just make good reasonably priced lures which are a bit different. So what is it about the Stria that makes it different, quite simply its wiggle!. Even at slow retrieves this lure puts on a serious [...]

How important is the choice of colour when Lure fishing?

By Sean McSeveny On March 10, 2015 · 3 Comments · In Lure, Tips
What is the best colour lure  for Bass fishing, or does it even matter? I recently read an article written by Steve Starling, which I have had permission to  include in this post. I will let you read it, then you can read my observations at the end of it. Steve ‘Starlo’ is Australia’s most [...]

Another quiet weekend

By Sean McSeveny On March 9, 2015 · 6 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Well thats another weekend passed without much being caught. The PLaice were even scarcer that I thought they might be. But they are starting to show to the East, so they will be with us in a couple of weeks. I still think that the next set of spring tides will be when we start [...]

Could the fishing start to pick up this weekend?

By Sean McSeveny On March 6, 2015 · 2 Comments · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I know a lot of sea anglers are chomping at the bit right now, to get out and try and catch an early Plaice. To be honest although there will certainly be one or two caught this weekend, from Abbotsbury or West Bexington, I don’t think they will start to show properly until the next [...]

Plaice fishing around Poole.

By Leo Toms On March 3, 2015 · Add Comment · In Marks, Poole Harbour, Reports
Following my recent report of the catches of plaice made in the Poole area. I have also been told of several other Plaice that have been landed in the last week. Now the saying goes “one swallow does not make a summer”. This could also be true of the plaice. We have seen a couple of [...]

Fishing in March, what to expect.

By Sean McSeveny On March 2, 2015 · Add Comment · In Reports
What can we expect in the way of fishing, now that March is with us? I would love to start this post off with a great catch report from the weekend, but it was a typical late winter weekend, with very few people on the beach, and even fewer fish caught. But lets not get [...]
