Plymouth newbie - report and questions

[leeroy221]

Hi all. I have just took up fishing again after 12+ years away.

I went on sunday to millbay in the morning and mount wise/mutton cove in the evening, no joy on any, not even a nibble.

On both occasions i had 2 setups, 1 float and 1 spin. Was using rag and mackerel, seperate and combined.

Couple queations:

Anyone had any joy here recently?

Setup; float was normal setup with size 1 or 2 hook . Spin i was using a lure with bell, for this i had small weight, bead, swivel, then line down to the lure. Is that right?

Sorry for the long post.

Hi leeroy and welcome to Anglers' Net. No worries about the length of your post. A "long one" here is over a page and less than that is normal.

 

Sorry I can't help with your venue but I'm way too far from there to ever be able to fish it (4000 miles roughly).

Hi. Generally speaking, you will catch very little from the shore during daylight (though there are exceptions). Fishing after dark on the right tide is better, although beach fishing is getting poorer all the time (again with occasional exceptions). Check with a local tackle shop for advice on your area.
