BASS, BASS & MORE BASS!

Sea Angler

WHERE THE BASS SHOULDN’T BE • From a beach gulley to a stranded tidal pool and a harbour packed with pilchards, James Batty explores why bass often turn up exactly where you’d least expect them – and what these unlikely encounters can teach us about finding more fish

WHEN RED REALLY IS GOLD • Roger Munro explores how striped red mullet have become one of Britain’s most exciting summer targets

CONFESSIONS OF A LURE JUNKIE SHORT IS GOOD! • Henry Gilbey reveals why understanding the ‘shape’ of the water could have a profound impact on your bass fishing

MINI MARLIN • For many sea anglers, garfish are little more than a colourful summer diversion – something to catch while waiting for mackerel or entertaining youngsters on a harbour wall.

THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE DETAIL • After a frustrating start to the day, Tim Macpherson discovers that learning from other anglers around him and making a handful of small tactical refinements unlocks superb black bream sport

THE SHOOTS • Some of the best fishing can happen in barely enough water to cover a fish’s back. Fishing with one of the last lave netters beneath the Prince of Wales Bridge reveals valuable lessons about fish movement, ultra-shallow tactics and why understanding flooding creeks can transform your catches wherever you fish

DAVE’S DIARIES FEAR OF THE DARK! • Over the years, Dave Lewis’ fishing adventures have taken him to some of the wilder corners of the world.
