Newton Point 30-09-09 Low Tide

WATCH OUT FOR THE FAST RISING TIDES
AND
SEA SWELLS.
This spot I believe is called the Pipe.
This shows the rocks to right which I was was spinning from.
This the left hand side again I tried spinning from here.

The various Lures used over a two hour period .
I did get a take but I missed what ever it was.
Must try harder.
Rag worm out far on a flowing trace rig, produced this
Ballen Wrasse.
I was told there were loads of Doggies out there
but they must have gone on holiday as this was all I caught
over low tide.


In the back ground are the rocks where I was casting from
over the high tide later that day.

This area is a bit of a tackel grave! so be warned.






Newton Beach 29-09-09

Had a few days over at Tracco Bay, Porthcawl.
Yep I did take my fishing rods (of cause).
Well I fished fished detween Tracco Bay and the Ogmore
river. A little small gully amongst a rocky area of the beach.
Snotty Silver Eel

I had plenty of rattles on both my Diawa 13RGM beach caster
and my Shimano Hyperloop Barble XT.

Bait was Ragworm, squid and sandeel.
Most bites were on the ragworm.
Schoolie Bass

The results of three hours of the flood to high tide can be seen
above.
I keep catching the baby fish???!!

Blankity Blank and no cheque book or pen!

20-09-09
Dutchess lake again.
This was my view from my swim.
The (yellow), sorry Bath stone building in
the back ground is called the Dower House.
To my left is the island bay.
The island is to the right of the picture.
The next two photos show the main part of the
lake.
Behind the trees in the back ground is the M32
motorway from the M4 to Bristol city centre.

Well yes again I blanked?!!!
Using the usual Carp fishing styles
I didn't even get a bite.
Only one person caught Carp and he had 4???

New Passage Part 2

These views are of the ground in front of the prom between
the Second Severn crossing and New Passage.
As can be seen it has loads of fish holding spots and
plenty of different types of bottom.


DANGER
This area has very large tides and fast currents
Don't get cut off by the tides.






New Passage Part 1

These photos show the area between the old railway ferry jetty
and the stream at New Passage
This is what the area looks like at low water on a small neap.
The area has gravel / pebbles, mud, rock and rock with
weed. There are a number of low tide pools.

WARNING
BEWARE THERE ARE VERY HIGH TIDES AND
FAST CURRENTS.

DON'T GET CUT OFF
