Isle of Wight Fishing

All though it has been a slow year for a lot of us there are some cracking fish being caught around the island form shore and boat.

This is my first bass of the year only 2lb caught on Dirty Squid at Cowes on a 1 up 1 down rig

 
But there have been some lovely silver bars caught ranging in size here are a couple caught by local angler Gazza Pritchett on the 11/08/2013 at the back of the island 3 lb and 7 lb I believe but its always nice to see them coming out the drink.

Here are some great catches from the charter boat Searaider fishing charters if you want to get out for a good days fishing with a skipper that knows some of the best places around the Isle of Wight get in contact with Searaider Fishing Charters Lovell here are a few photo's of some catches.

There have also been a few nice sole come up as well this one was caught by Carl Mcmahon at Shanklin fisherman's cottage I'm unsure of the size but a nice fish non the less.

These are few of my choice that I thought I'd write a small blog on stay tuned for more blogs all in all there is plenty of fishing to go around.

Bad Bass Fishing

Springvale 03/08/2013

Very slow night after hearing some good reports of fish coming out of Springvale a friend and I decided we would have a bash, It was a lovely cool night with a slight sw breeze Arriving 3 hours before high tide  we fished with rag worm and squid we fished till an hour after high and am sorry to say there was nothing biting apart from the crabs. I know Springvale can be a great area to fish so maybe give it another go soon when there is a higher tide.
