Of course I love the Perch, but the Ruffe certainly wins on cool points from a light lure perspective. More
June
Archive of all LRF fish caught in the month of June.
Plaice Fishing With Isome
By all accounts, it's been a good year for Plaice on the South Coast. Good quantities of fish means better chances of catching them on lures as these colourful flatfish compete with each other. More
LRF Skiathos Greece
Dragged myself away from the Gyros and Souvlaki for a just two short LRF sessions in Skiathos, Greece. The variety was pretty good. More
Light Rock Fishing in Kefalonia
Did some LRF around Agia Efimia, while on holiday for a week on the Greek island of Kefalonia (one of our favourites). This year I played things a little differently and kept the Isome in its packet, concentrating on metals, micro hardbaits and soft plastics. More
Bass on Tiny Hardbaits
With an almost unlimited stream of shoal bass around at the moment it pays to experiment. For me, the most satisfying technique is casting tiny hardbaits, getting slammed in plain sight! Spectacular fun on a 7g LRF rod.
LRF Really Getting Going
Really feels like LRF is firing now. The water feels alive. Loads of mini sandeel and fry about. With it a huge amount of aggressive species. Good array of fish hitting non-flavoured lures. Nice to see the shoal bass have returned. Could this be why I didn't catch a single goby all weekend? Or maybe just out-competed by the wrasse.
Pollack to Bass
Weird. All the Pollack have turned into Bass :0) Perfect way to christen the new 5g Rock n Force though
LRF on Bournemouth Pier
Dropped in on Bournemouth Pier for an hour after seeing some fish around the pilings. Turned out they were Smelt, including some jumbos. Good fun jigging cut-down Knight Worms for them.
There were large numbers of Spider Crab present. At least I wasn't trying to fish bait!
