HAYLING Angler, one of our intrepid sea angling correspondents, reports some amazing boat fishing.
On a trip aboard Dave Adams ‘Torbay Belle’ it was estimated that some 80 black bream in total were landed in a fabulous day’s boat angling.
”Three fish over the specimen weight of 3lb were landed on the day,” he told total-fishing. “The bream are only here for about six weeks, so if you want to try this quite specialised form of boat fishing, ring one of the Langstone skippers listed below soon.”
