We were catching them in Normandy last week, and a Bass[emoji106] So they are around.

Went out yesterday at 5pm back by 7 with eight for tea

Plenty off South Devon.
Maybe they can't be bothered to swim that far up the channel

I don't think it's too early, it's more likely I'm just a crap at fishing. Lost loads of feather rigs as well getting stuck on something on the bottom....Grrrr..

last weekend we didnt catch anything despite being out in our usually good spots near the solent forts

Caught off Thorness Ledge today, seagulls going banana's.
Mackerel and a Gar.....
