LRF Poole Party
Found myself in Dorset for a few days and managed three micro sessions down at Poole Quay. More
Swanage Tompot Bonanza
Dropped in on Swanage Pier for a few hours this bank holiday and bumped into fellow light lure enthusiast, Ricki Hill. It was really firing in places and it was painful when I had to tear myself away, all too soon. Pleased to hear that Ricki found the rare Baillons after I left. I did add Black Bream and Pouting to my yearly tally. The number of Tompot Blenny was staggering.

LRF on Bournemouth Pier
Dropped in on Bournemouth Pier for an hour after seeing some fish around the pilings. More
Poole Quay LRF
Stopped off at Poole Quay on my way back from wrasse fishing further south. Of course I had an LRF rod in the car! More
Night Game Poole Quay
A 90 minute Night Game session at Poole Quay resulted in some good fun with the local Pollack population. All fish were caught in the top third of the water column. A couple of big Smelt even managed to inhale the size 8.
Best of all, and what really gave me payback for braving the drizzle was witnessing ragworm spawning on the surface. I’ve only ever seen this once before and never as clearly as this. Couldn’t understand why they weren’t getting smashed by the Pollack.
