    Sea Fishing

    Anyone here go sea fishing?

    I used to always go, and sometimes in a boat. Conwy/Llandudno.

    Caught all kinds over the years, but haven't been for years. Hoping to start again this year, even if it's just off a pier.

    Used to cost us £120 to hire the boat. That was a few years ago when fuel was cheaper than uranium

    we charter a boat out of pool harbour the boat is named strongbow it costs about £200 but dick the skipper stays out from morning until nightfall plus he is a diver so he knows where all the best wrecks are so it is very good value for money

    I love fishing,used to do it from Whitby on the wrecking boats when I was a kid,even snagged mullet in Victoria harbour when I lived in mid-levels,always like the chance to cast a line though nowadays its trout or bog-standard river fish.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.

    I used to have a 16ft boat and went sea fishing a lot and really enjoyed it but it got too expensive to keep up.

    Used to catch "Black Bream, small cod or somthing like cod, pouting good to eat fresh and mackeral in summer, some flatfish!
    Would like to go sometime again in the summer

    I am taking all my river and spinning tackle over in April. I want to get my mahal's sons interested in fishing, not just for the hobby of it, but also to be able to catch something to eat. The river that flows past our town is lovely. It's wide quite slow running and clean as it comes out of the mountains a couple of miles away. I have not got a clue what is in there, but i am sure thee will be decent catfish and Talapia amoungst other fish.
    As we are only an hour from Dingalang on the Pacific coast, I have my bass rod and some rapala's and spinners to try to find some predatory fish. Also taking my fly kit.
    Anyone have experience of fishing the rivers or shore ?

    From a lake in Mindanao I caught loads of siamese catfish(pla buk)they are stocked as fast growing foodfish,other freshwater has been raped,fished in a few places and caught very,very little,I have seen guys electro fishing streams and catching next to nothing,similarly the shores have mile after mile of small-mesh gill nets denuding fish stocks on unimaginable scaleOnly place I fished from the shore with good results was sulu and jolo
    Theres a reason Robson Green in extreme fishing caught very little in pinas,lots and lots of subsistance farmers taking every single fish they can get their hands on,catch and release doesnt figure highly in their practice
    I am not in Pinas at the moment,but was just off the coast of north africa when I saw the sunfish today.A better bet if your into freshwater fishing in asia is thailand,some of the best lake and river fishing I have ever done,comparable to anywhere in the world.
