| Solent area Hi, Im looking for a few new places to try around the Solent. Currently I fish Milford, Hordle, Barton, Taddiford, Hythe, Lepe, Parkshore, Sowley, Eastney, Hill Head and Town Quay (Southampton)! I guess that is a fair few but I would like to try a few new areas. I keep thinking about fishing Old Portsmouth but don't know alot about it, along with Gilkicker point and Haslar wall. I would also like to know of a few marks where I can try out spinning for Bass. If anyone would like info on any marks that I fish just let me know and I will try and help.

| Re: Solent area the river hamble fish's well for bass on light gear, either spinning or light bottom fishing, floats work as well __________________ Bens The Name And Catchings The Game Anti the Anti's |

| Re: Solent area Bagstar, you mention that you fish Taddiford - fished it last year and had a cracking session there - do you know how it's been fishing lately? __________________ It has always been my private conviction that any man who pits his intelligence against a fish and loses has it coming. ~John Steinbeck |

| Re: Solent area I haven't fished Taddiford for a while but my friend fished there last week and had two Bass just over a pound in weight and a trusty Dog fish! We both fished Barton On Sea last week and both blanked but he was also there the week before and had a few Rays, so the area is fishing rather well at the moment but the trawlers have also been working the area! __________________ http://bagstar-birdsnests.blogspot.com/ |

| Re: Solent area We fished it late in the summer last year, and had a right mixed bag, bass, hounds, dog, sole, will definitely be fishing it again this year at some point. __________________ It has always been my private conviction that any man who pits his intelligence against a fish and loses has it coming. ~John Steinbeck |
