Hey Matt You seem to be fishing close to the groyne, is there a reason for this? and would you pick the higher or lower edge?
@SaltwaterAngler Жыл бұрын
Yes I like to keep the gear out the wind and also depending which way the tides running you can cast either side of the groyne. There is more movement of water at the end of the groyne too so a good place to aim the baits , very often as water runs past it it scoures the sea bed and makes fish holding features. So both edges of the groyne fishing down tide so when I retrieve the rig comes back away from the obstruction

Continental rods might solve your problem here, you can get some really good quality light rods that are easy to cast. Have a look at Brian doing over the ground casts here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/boTLYnh_YqZ8jac I recently tried a few rods from the yuki range and they are so light and easy to cast. A lot depends on where you fish , conditions and ground but a conti rod designed for up to 4oz could be brilliant for you
