Floating

Myself

Two hours

Two hours before HW:

Sunny with a south west breeze :

Rag:

Floating a single hook :

Pollack:

With the cracking weather What else would you have to do but get out and wet your line.
I decided to try something different, I Went rock fishing using a 5 pound line and my trout reel. I floated rag a few feet out from the rocks. Within minutes my float went under I struck !! and missed, after a few bites and missis I finally found the knack for it.
I landed 6 pollack about The size of your hand. Have to say its a lovely light way to fish and with the light line and rod you can really feel the knocks on the rod.
Can't wait to try it for a few mackerel

Cheers mate not the biggest of fish but a lovely way to get a bit of sport from them recommended it to anyone with the way the weather is at the min

Its one of my favourite ways to fish. You cant beat the peace and quiet while watching a float bob up and down.

Thats what is all about really looking forward to hitting a few macks on the float and getting a good little fight out of them on the light gear

Congrats. Looks like youv'e sorted out the livebait for bass & and large mackerel. Ideal size, with a bait bucket and aerator and float tackle you can can fish with the all sought after ANTICIPATION
