not been drinking much last while wife is expecting no3, so more fishing time,not be near any more rock marks for pollock waiting for the cod now bud,will be on here, on and off so will keep in touch,you should if you get a good day pop up to the point of the mull go down from the helicopter pad,follow the path over,it is great fishing,float and sandeel or ragworm is brillant just set your depth to just of bottom loads of wrasse,pollock,nice size as well..........

hello snatcher me old bud how you doing,here you have been down my way last while,i hope you are going to leave some of those silver bullets for us locals,bad weather last while over the pollock marks in the area but if you pick your days there is a odd cracker to be had,i had a nice 9 lb of slock mill last month and some other nice fish on the red gill,will have to take you some summer,that plugging rod and a few red gills best fun you can have with your clothes on as they say,when them big boys of near double hit you just have to hang on wild fishing at its best,.............................

so it is m8 at first look i thought it was a f/s,another look shows that it is multi,not bad style thou...........g.b.

try some estury beaches with lug,follow tide in,watch u dont get cut off thou,look for gullies or areas they might forage for food,the normaly follow the tide in hunting,they might be under your feet so keep your eyes open always,the beaches we fish in south west scotland are pretty similar this works for us,after a while you get to know best bits,a good sea helps nothing to drastic mind you ,try just bout 3 or 4 breakers out ,long flowing trace helps dont be scared of big hooks these things have bucket gubs,3/0,4/0 [ 23.

Hi mate,i was in Pwllheli a couple of times fishing the national sea league finals,both times it was mid may,and we stayed in same site,most of our fishing was done of the beach which runs a long both sides of the town,it was brillant fishing,dogs,ray, black bream,garfish,and loads of them,the site is not on the beach but a short car journey will take you there,all you would need for beach would be sandeel,ragworm,squid and a macky if u can get your hands on some,as for boat fishing there is always a advert in sea angler bout couple of boats which fish out of there so you could give them a ring,there is a tackle shop in town,for any frozen bait you might need,and most likely advice on mabey boat fishing,i am from scotland myself but have been to the area a number of times,think mabey shop sells ragworm as well............g.balls [ 18.
