Great report MM.My favorite beach in Cornwall is just around the corner
Porthcurno.
Plenty of fishing spots off the rocks.

Just imagine if a kayak angler hooked one:face: or a lure angler from the rocks

Don't think my travel rod and 6lb line is going to be up to it

John/fishlocker on utube caught two about 350lb each last year between Falmouth and the Lizard (16ft boat)
Both on the same trip.

Great link that!

900lb'er recently caught in Welsh waters ...

(Don't think the fish in the pic is the one caught.)

Great informative post MM.If the Tuna are back,I wonder if that's why the mackerel are less prevelant?
A group of us took two boats down to St Davids a few years ago and camped for a few days.
Some big swells come in there.The slip is more or less right on the campsite.
The weather broke halfway through the first week,so we up stakes and tried Benlech.The weather was great at Benlech,so we spent the rest of the fortnight there.

Couple of things I found when having a look at what kit they used in the 1930s
