SussexSeaFishing held its meet on saturday which was a great success. We fished Seaford on Saturday 9th June between 1600-2030. the weather was lovely, we had some top food on the bbq and we had a nice section of beach near tidemills where there were no bathers. Given the weather we all assumed that it would be mostly Gars and Mackerel, however, this wasn't the case. Things started promisingly with Simon Pickles catching a Gar and Mackerel early on but after this it went slow and the only other garfish caught was by Glenn Arnold. People tried all sorts of tactics including floats & sliders etc but the mackerel and gars werent there, testament to this was some guys pleasure fishing/spinning down the beach and they didnt appear to catch much either. Things began to pick up when i pulled in a sizeable flounder, after this a few other people caught one or two and it appeared the fishing was picking up. As things were slow in the float I changed from using a 1 hook running ledger and 2 hook sliding float to 2 hooks (1up 1 down) and 1 on the slider alternated every cast for a 3 hook flapper using Redrag (maddies) as bait on size 4 hooks throughout. When fishing the flapper i let a bit of slack out to ensure that the baits laid on the bottom. I managed to hook into 4 more sizeable Flounders and a couple of undersize ones, beads on the bottom in the clear water seemed to be tempting them. Reports also came through that earlier that day (morning tide) that a guy had a Flounder of 2lb 2oz so maybe we should have expected it. All in all it was a good day and pretty much everyone weighed in. Reds were the bait of the day and flowing rigs fished on the bottom proved best so if your heading to tidemills this week it may be worth a go. There were plenty of prizes and a nice fixed spool reel was amongst the prizes won courtesy of www.abfishingtackle.com.
