teignmouth Estuary Bassing

[pixybasher]

I was just wondering if there was any Bass in the mouth of the river at the moment,I thought I might give it a go next week sometime, I would like to have a go for the flatties but as ive never been upriver I'm not sure where to go.
Any advise would be great.
Even better if I could join someone for a couple of hours, I'll do the driving too if you like.

combe cellars is a good spot too start looking for the flounders... you can catch them almost anywhere in the river but alot of good fish come from that area... also a little futher up river on the same side (shaldon) is netherton and once you work out how to get to the river here it can prove to be a handy place to know and thats all im saying lol

im not exactly sure about the state of the tides...but i think they fish it 3 hours either side of low... just be careful not too pick to big a tide otherwise you will walk miles out onto the mud and could get messy....i would pick a neap tide and fish 3 hours either side of low water....your best chance will be with peeler crab too couple sequins or coloured beads always seem to help too!
