Hi all, I'm spending a few days down at a friends house on the south coast soon, in Rustington; near Worthing. We, or rather He figured a days fishing in the sea of a Pier would be a great idea! I've course fished for years but mostly fish for big carp these days. Will 3.5 tc rods allied to Penn Affinity 8000's be beefy enough to cope with the sea? And I've absolutely no idea of what sort of rigs I should be using.. he seems to want to go for Mackeral tho.. Any help / tips with basic rigs would be much appreciated! oh.. also will 15lb line be adequate? Please say it will do in a pinch! ;p many thanks in advance! Gill

Hello Gill and welcome :)

 

I can't offer much advice on tackle but I'll move this thread over to the sea fishing part of the forum, you should get more views there :)

I dont think there will be mackrel will there? they are gone from round my bit of coast this time of the year. fishing from a pier with a carp rod is fine, keep it simple should be some whiting still around, ask in a local tackle shop as what bait and hook size to use. tight lines

take a look at my blog

Definatly is the season for the herring to arrive off brighton harbour wall, so a light rod with tiny shrimp hokkies, or drop the same down alongside the wall, tiny flick out, baited with either tiny lumps of fish or squid might just do the trick. no makeral.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

The reels should be fine however no so the rods, you can pick a cheap 10/12ft pier rod from various places, a phone call to a local tackle shop would be my order of the day, he will be able to help you with the rod and also with tackle, rigs and bait.
