theres a pier thing and rocks all around it

seen people fishing on float and bringin in a pollack a cast but didnt see anything else caught

[devondave]

i went cornwall last year stayed in a tent lol was p--sing it down! i stayed around the lizard the most southern point or some thing like that the sea was freezing and wen we got back from there it got nice weather lol. im going there again this summer ill bring a tele rod this time

[steve devon]

lizard is near mullion i think

sposed to be good for rays around that area

The Lizard area and Penznace to Lands End area have lots of little coves and small fishing harbours than I'd have thought would be good. Falmouth seemed to fish well when I was there last year, before I started sea fishing but people were catching even though a large seal was present (fishing from the jetty where the ferry goes from). I could also see some large fish from the underwater window at the maritime museum. Not very good at recognising species but they may have been Bass although I thought they preferred rougher water. Whatever they were they were about 2 feet long. I'd have thought wherever you go in Cornwall there is decent fishing within a half hour drive.

well thanks pross i guess they would be mullet rather than bass but without seeing them i couldnt tell you.
but its looking more and more like i will be going to falmouth as everywhere i read falmouth seems to have the most variety of species i will keep you all posted on when im going and what happens but in the mean time if anyone has fished that area i would be glad of some advice

[Pross]

Yeah, looked them up last night and they were mullett. Never likely to see a bass on my rod anyway ;)

[devondave]

do you drive pross?.. we could meet up down torquay i will catch you a bass although you should be able to catch them were you are really
