Howdy doody everyone, glorious weather out there atm but unlike the weather the fishing is not so glorious and defo a tale of 2 halves.
Daytime fishing is quite a test for everyone atm and the best of the catches seem the bream and plaice but even that is limited to one or 2 spots on each wall. often to catch in the day you need to be very early or quite late and the spider crabs seem to be having their way with the water still . all in all fairly poor and very tough going in a brutal heat and unforgiving sun…. plenty of fluid and plenty of sun screen.

Night time fishing, there is some good news if you are looking for mackerel but its not great news. We have been getting small flurries, at almost dark either near night or the half dawn light a few mackerel are showing mixed up with better numbers of horse mac. Due to spider crabs we are still seeing bass activity low on the east as well as a few hounds and rays being drawn in also.
Bream can be had over the high and sole and plaice also over the sandy areas but overall it is fairly slow and much like hard work. The hot weather looks to continue well into next week so please check reports from more than one plaice if you plan to travel a long way for some mackerel as there are not many showing locally on the marina.
On a brighter note for those with smaller children there are lots of little bits down the “Vs” close to the wall on the lower half of both walls so if you have a small 6foot rod it may keep them occupied having a dabble down the side with a little bit of bait (almost any food u can get on a small hook).
