Gnasher Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) with PJ and Dom both reporting Mullet sightings, i thought i would have ago at Wick before they shut it off for the Closed season. I had an hour and a half spare between digging up my patio and picking my lad up from school. Anyway, i thought they would be tough this early in the season..............DUH...........they were jumping on the hook from the off..........4 small thicklips landed, all between 1.5 -3lb, with another lost one at net (a better fish nearer the 4lb mark)........ Also in that time i got myself sidetracked by 2 feeding carp (that i couldn't tempt)!!! All the fish on the fly (a tiny white bread fly)........ i have a few piccies that i will post if i can work out how to change the image size........... Dan Edited March 12, 2007 by Gnasher Quote
Manic Moore Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) Dan Please take me mullet fly fishing, please, please. I love mullet fishing and would love to get one on the fly. Are you a Christchurch member? Am I allowed to fly fish the harbour on a day ticket? Regards Gordon Edited March 12, 2007 by Manic Moore Quote
Gnasher Posted March 12, 2007 Author Report Posted March 12, 2007 thats the smallest fish, a tiddler really (first fish of the day), and the pic of the fly for Adam. Quote
Paul D Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 If its a tip for Adam then I might change the fly to this one Quote
Gnasher Posted March 12, 2007 Author Report Posted March 12, 2007 cracking paul.... but unfortunatley, with Adams track record, i doubt hes really after tips!!! Quote
Paul D Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 He would probably use it and catch one with it Quote
Newboy Posted March 12, 2007 Report Posted March 12, 2007 Can I come too? Please. Would love to catch a mullet any method. Quote
TomBettle Posted March 14, 2007 Report Posted March 14, 2007 The biggest school of mullet I have seen in ages is currently milling around the fuel berth at Salterns. I have my flyrod here and have spent the last 10 minutes running around trying to find materials to make a fly up, but, alas, all my diddy hooks are at home... Quote
plaicemat Posted March 14, 2007 Report Posted March 14, 2007 By the by, Tom, did Sam get my fly fishing video to you? Terry. Quote
TomBettle Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 By the by, Tom, did Sam get my fly fishing video to you? Terry. Yes Terry, both of them and I still have a very smart camera here.... Quote
plaicemat Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 I haven't forgotten, Tom, and I'm grateful for your 'lost property' service. If I can make arrangements, I would like to get down for the AGM when I will, presumably, see you. Otherwise I may just take a cruise on the bike on a nice day and pop in for coffee. Terry. Quote
jack Posted March 15, 2007 Report Posted March 15, 2007 I often walk out along the road to Hengetsbury head.Can I fish from the roadside? I have a rivers licence but not a permit from Christchurch A.C. .Or hopefully is this classed as the sea.?If it is'nt the sea,where does the sea start ,as seen from the "little train" route ? jack Quote
