Having grown up reading about the specimen fish catches from the notorious Devil’s Point in Plymouth, I always fancied fishing there. Sadly that didn’t happen until now.

It’s Started!
First one of 2022. A nice, early, prespawn fish that took a liking to a shrimp pattern soft plastic lure, fished on the reliable Free Rig.
Rock Goby Identification
Granted, not the hardest fish to identify, but I found this nice photograph of a Rock Goby showing the key attributes useful in identifying this species;
Shimano Stella 3000 FE
My Shimano Stella 3000 FE has seen quite a few years of action. It’s been absolutely solid. In addition to its durability, the stand-out feature is its drag. Really, really smooth with very little start-up time and therefore perfect for light line applications.
Back on the Black Bream
Just a quick post to say Dan and I are back on the Black Bream and straight in where we left off. The Free Rig getting it done once again, although fish on metal too. Plenty more info on our bream fishing coming up, weather permitting.
Jack Nakamura Worm Oislock
One of the coolest soft plastic lures in my collection – the Jack Nakamura Worm Oislock. This bright red creaturebait comes from a JDM lure manufacturer that I discovered in a trip to Osaka, Japan.
Reins Swimming Ajimetal Ikki
The Reins Ajimetal Ikki looks stunning in this 012 silver-stripe round herring candy. Pow! I’m in love.
Yamaga Blue Current Action
Dan’s Yamaga Blue Current in action on the Dorset coast. One of our favourite rods over the years. This is the 8g rated rod.
