There does not seem to be much future for fish ..... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ing-lifted.html?ito=social-twitter_mailonline
Hi Jonny, on a nice day its a stunning location, usually brilliant vis, not always fishy, some lovely friendly seals ! and vicious tidal runs which either mean boat drift dives or probably the safer option of fishing shallow weed filled lagoons. I am told that it is quite heavily netted. We have dived it quite a few times with varying success fish wise.@jerseymike or anyone else - have you ever dived around the Ecrehous islands? just wondering what its like, tides and such like?
the pictures online look amazing!
A lot of our fish hole up, usually the ones we are after are bass, mullet, white bream. The trick is finding the holes they like! Its a bit like low water lobstering, once u have found a hole they use, its worth remembering and checking every time u go. Other species hole up too, I have even found a nice Pollack in a hole!We saw a bass in a hole a couple of weeks ago. It was on a pinnacle, top is -18m, bottom is -43m and little weed, so your theory could be right.
I didnt know you are allowed to dive in the marinas K?East looks amazing this morning from up here. Only 3.5 hrs till I can get in
Looks very fishy JonnyView attachment 39578
Me and J went east today but not our usual spot! Condor passed as we were getting in so that was fun as the waves shortly started breaking over us.
As J said a marathon of a swim and we covered some serious distance and had to work really hard! I am getting used to the drops and feel much more relaxed know. We didn't even unclip the guns from the boards today. Fog horn started sounding after being if for about 45mins but we kept a close eye on things and and the fog soon cleared.
All in all a great session. Well done to J on a lovely plaice. I managed a few scollies which made all the hard work worth while.![]()
I used to see so much more 10 years ago but thats life. Try again tomorrow mate. Goodluck if your going inGreat result guys, makes the marathon worth it, hard luck Rocky, but most of my sessions out have been quite quiet this year. My first year spearfishing a few years ago was my best, seemed to find the bass easier for some reason.
yes, and nice to have found another scollie spot in less than 20m. i suppose you could call it 'east' ish... lol.
The plaice was just under 3lb.
