2017 targets???

Its that time of year where we decide how we are going to be disappointed for the next 12 months.

Do share so we can all have a laugh!

Im fed up with the species hunting now, so am targeting fish over 5lb in weight as often as i can next year. Thats going to be Huss, Rays, Conger, Smoothies and Bass realistically without cheating and going on a boat.

Im hoping for at least 5 fish into double figures so am going to have to change my approach from size 12s, although i have missed a few conger this year while arsing about for minis so with more concentration who knows???

My targets for next year are to fish has many new venues has I can

and would love to catch a ray and a smoothound from the shore

You've caught enough this year to last you 2years.

Need to get to Anglesey more I haven't been once this year

Catch a Ray from the shore

I've not had a bad year jim I will be hoping of more of the same

An undulate ray and a bigger tope

Got a trip booked out of Oban in May, so hopefully one of the better Skate they have up there will put in an appearance.
From the shore I hope to improve on the small Thornie and Smoothound I had this year.

May all ya fish be big uns in 2017.

With my dodgy foot,beach fishing is an impossibility.Haha,following the tide in and out
would probably get me in the headlines.(Old tosser caught by the tide)
I just missed out getting my boat out at the end of summer,but next spring I will be out there.
It's the only way I will be able to go fishing.
Probably run down as far as Rhos on sea from rhyl.
I fancy trying Rhosneigr,some great looking spots a mile down to the left.

Been fishing now since summer 2015 so I have a bit over a year under my belt.
Learned a bit but not a lot in the big scheme of things, cut my teeth on the Glynn wall in Blackpool, the Mersey and beach's across Wales oh and Holyhead breakwater. Had a go at Ty Croes but blanked.
This year I want to get some bigger fish! Largest this year was a bass, doggie and a nice wrasse. These were not big in any sense of the word but still happy with them. Come spring I am going to try and "target" species, big or small. My wish list for this year is: Conger, Huss, Ray and a bigger bass.
As usual 2 rods fishing, one as normal with a 2 hook flapper and one with pennel big bait in the "right" marks.
Hopefully learned enough to bag most on the wish list, some serious camping on the Lynn and Anglesey this year lol

Good luck camping on Lynn hope she doesn't mind

She's a bit lumpy!

The best of us are
