What colour Isome worms work best?
We all have our favourites when it comes to flavoured lures like Marukyu Power Isome and Gulp Sandworm, but a question I see pop up again and again is, “what colour isome worms work best?” I thought it might be useful to share my catch data from the past few years. More
Whiting on Gulp Sandworm

Plaice, Plastic… Perfect
As we fast approach May we are finally getting April’s fishing.

Last Sunday the weather gave us a window to try Hayling Bay again. More
Lure Caught Thornback Ray
