Wedger Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 I'm out early (06.00) Sunday from Baiter (unless there's greater interest for Mudeford) to show a family friend my Wilson. It would be a waist not to fish a little as well. Currently I've taken to the notion that a live trout is as good as a live mackerel, particularly when the mackies are hard to come by. I'm going to take a few along so if anyone would like a few FOC to try let me know NOW! so I can bring enough along. I tried some last month. They last all day in full sea water, are as hardy as hec (same fish tried for three drops to 125 feet and would still out run a mackerel). I know the tides are iffy but it's the only slot I have. All welcome BUT PLEASE LET ME KNOW My first trial close to a bass mark did this!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam F Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Good work Trev - never considered using trout, didnt think the sea water would do any good! May be tapping you up for a few as the macky dissapear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 A trout survived in sea water? not I've seen everything. Actually is a sea trout same as ouyr river trout? Bit like our salmon which can live in both sea and fresh water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaicemat Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Kam, a sea trout is just a brown trout that has migrated to sea, like an American steelhead is a rainbow trout that has done the same. River brown trout are just lazy sea trout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedger Posted September 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 If you think, what small fish (nice fish) are around early and late for the bass to eat???? In the spring the smolts get a bashing in April and May............... in the Autumn sprats get a rough ride. Both are quite similar in size and appearance to the trout. Quite honestly, the bass are stuffing so hard this time of year, before they head off, they'ed take a well presented live bait if it's drops on its nose. No small bait Duncan! Interesting mark on the bass's scales. Been had by larger fish at some stage but well healed. Fish RETURNED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
