HRF / LRF Lure Fishing Reports and Discussion From The South West. Monday, 8 July 2013. Summer weather is finally here, with crystal clear waters and blue sunny skies. The down side to this, means I am super-busy at work, and so my opportunities to fish are slim to none! I did manage to get a quick evening session in last week, fishing in the bay, into deep kelpy waters. As the tide ebbed, I was able to access the rock from where I like to hunt the Wrasse. Switching back to the Ecogear soft plastics,...

HRF / LRF Lure Fishing Reports and Discussion From The South West. Wednesday, 14 August 2013. Top Water Bass Action. Conditions looked promising for an after work session on a local reef. High tide meant some special tactics were gonna be needed to access the sweet spots due to the high spring tide. This is where the wetsuit, dry bag and of course the Van Staal VSB 150 reel. 14 August 2013 at 23:07. The best of fishing fun. 11 January 2014 at 08:37. Hello, This is Fishing! 2 May 2014 at 09:01.

HRF / LRF Lure Fishing Reports and Discussion From The South West. Thursday, 27 June 2013. Wrasse Vert Style Afloat. Tuesday this week I had high hopes of fishing glory. I was joining a friend aboard his boat, for a day of fishing out of. The tide was good, the sea was flat calm, and the sun was shining with no wind. I had borrowed a couple of rods from Andrew Younger of Finesse Fishing. I did however get a pretty good tan out on the water all day! The Tenryu Horizon is a really interesting rod. It l...

A Diary of irregular and diverse fishing trips. Saturday, March 24, 2012. After a horrid morning, I finally made it to the Barbican to see the new Art of Fishing shop there. Its very cool indeed, and I was glad to meet and chat to Matt Newcombe of Plymouth Lure Fishing. Ben Field the Art of Fishing. Owner . Very patient and helpful guys right there. After buying a few bits and some new line. Even though I swore I wouldn't spend anything. Another one for the species list :-). Thursday, March 08, 2012.

This Fishing Life: November 2011
http://thisfishinglife.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
A Diary of irregular and diverse fishing trips. Wednesday, November 09, 2011. The Great Sea Fishing Lure Rationalise. I have lots of Pike lures, but that's OK, as I'm targeting just that one species so need lots of choice, plus I'm not exactly trudging down cliffs to get to them. On the other hand, I have a lot of Bass and sea lures, but DO need to climb down cliffs. So I decided to pare down my collection to the essentials. Here's how I got on. My Bass Lures started out like this. Odds stacked against m...

This Fishing Life: Books
http://thisfishinglife.blogspot.com/p/books.html
A Diary of irregular and diverse fishing trips. How to Fish" - Chris Yates. Publisher: Hamish Hamilton Ltd (28 Sep 2006). I can thoroughly recommend it. Its different to the majority of fishing books, as its not exactly a manual, but a journey with the author on his love of fishing and what we as anglers get out of it. Its a wonderful, pleasant walk along the bank in the true ethos of what angling is about. The Secret Carp - Chris Yates (modern printing). Catch Carp and Tench - John Wilson. Fox guide to ...

A Diary of irregular and diverse fishing trips. Friday, July 29, 2011. Chased big carp again in our local pond. Heavy gear, standard running ledgers, bigger boilies. Fresh freezer baits too. Cell, Grange, and Black Snail. However, we didn't hit anything like our target, we didn't even get a double. I ended up having x5 carp, x2 under tree on Cell. x2 off island on Grange, and x1 stalking on bread, all about 5lb to 8lb. Oddly, Mike blanked, yet he was sat next to me on similar baits and rigs. The real poi...

HRF / LRF Lure Fishing Reports and Discussion From The South West. Friday, 23 August 2013. Major Craft Shore Jigging. Spring low tide and crystal clear conditions have never been very productive at the particular mark I was fishing during the week. I had a theory that the fish were holding out in the deeper waters, around some kelp beds, out of the range of usual lure tactics. Seemed a good opportunity to test out one of the two new Majorcraft shore jigging rods rods that I recently got hold of. First im...
