Bognor is good, huge reef which is swimmable from shore or take boat. Newhaven, off the arms of harbour is good too.

Thanks for that.

What size fish?

Also can you give me a bit more detail on the bognor reef.

Cheers

I have caught 5-7lb bass at Newhaven but at Bognor I believe bass of up to 15lb have been taken. There are probably people on here better qualified to explain all of Bognor reef system but when I shore dived it I entered the water with the pier to the left of me and swam out to sea till I picked up the reef and then drifted with the tide. There are guys with good GPS points for some of the better 'holes' in the reef which hold big bass.
