Didn't know if this would be considered fresh water so please move if I'm wrong posting here!
ESTUARY FISHING (UK)?! I have always looked and figured NO VIZ. However maybe you could see 1ft? and scramble around on the bottom for flaties? I have never hunted these but have read it keeps a few of you amuzed during the winter season. Have I got it all wrong, or could you hunt for flatties (dabs) with a hand spear. I've no idea how shy these fish are? OR, are people fishing for the flaties off the beaches.. There are some shallow sand banks where the water looks very clear now i think about our estuary more. Maybe at lowtide in shallow water could i find these fish?
I know good Bass are caught in this estuary, but I figure the viz would never be good enough to spot one?
I think i'll wait for a reply before I start forging a hand spear at work!
