Actually, this reminds me - when are you, me and @Saintly Fish going dangling then? There was talk of a session a while back. Are we waiting for a decent tide?

I'm hoping to get out on a shore jigging session on Sunday down in Fowey. HW will be 07.30-ish so I should be able to fish the slack and the start of the ebb, which has performed well in the past. Fingers crossed!

What a cracking day out! Very well dangled 👍. You worked hard for your fish but it shows they're there if you know where to look. Well done. Shame you didn't find any dogfish though... suppose you can't win 'em all! 🤣

Good report. I liked the bit about dogfish the best 🐶👍

Might sound a bit blunt but if you're worried about the price of tinned wire going up then boating may not be for you. There's nothing cheap about being afloat, but I guess you've already figured that out 😱🤣. Keep going though - it'll be a great feeling once you're boating fish on marks that you've sussed yourself. Nothing beats it in my view 👍

Keep up at the back please! 🙄 👇👇

Very nice! Not jealous at all.... much! 🤣👍 How do you catch them and what did it take? Lures or bait?

That looks like a good match to your photos Josh 👍

A guy walked into a bar with a monkey. The monkey grabbed some olives off the bar and ate them. Then he grabbed some sliced limes and ate them. He then jumped onto the pool table and grabbed one of the balls. To everyone’s amazement, he stuck it in his mouth and somehow swallowed it whole. The bartender looked at the guy and said, “Did you see what your monkey just did?” “No, what?” “He just ate the cue ball off my pool table – whole!” “Yeah, that doesn’t surprise me,” replied the guy, “he eats everything in sight, don’t worry, I’ll pay for the cue ball.” The guy finished his drink, paid his bill, paid for the stuff the monkey ate and left. Two weeks later the guy came back and had his monkey with him. He ordered a drink and the monkey started running around the bar. The monkey found a cherry on the bar. He grabbed it, stuck it up his bum, pulled it out and then ate it. Then the monkey found a peanut and again stuck it up his bum, pulled it out and ate it. The bartender asked, “Did you see what that filthy ape just did?” “No, what?” asked the man. “Well, he stuck both a cherry and a peanut up his arse, then he pulled them out and ate them.” “Yeah, that doesn’t surprise me,” replied the guy. “He’ll eat anything, but ever since he had to shit out that cue ball, he measures everything first.”

Don't reckon it's a common/Eurasian wren as they have more mottled wings. See the wings in the pic below, not seen in Josh's photos.

Could be a Bewick's Wren. Native of the US, and a long way from home if so. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bewick's_wren

I use either 20 or 30lb Daiwa J-Braid depending on the line class of the rods I'm using.

😭 Ah, what a shame. It's always annoying when you get loads of other species but not the one you're really after. Still, well done for trying. 😉🤣

Top fishing! Well done. 👍

Well done @Josh, you really do put the effort in. I'm rubbish without sleep, so good on you for going the distance, literally and figuratively! Nice pollack too 👍

Nice one! Well dangled 👍 And good to see the inside of a Predator 165 too. I miss my old one.

Wow! What's that fish in the middle photo? Not seen one of those before.

Congratulations Luke! Quite a milestone! 👍

I can't wait! 🐶🐶

So what you're saying is... don't use vinegar 🤣👍

I suspect that suppliers know this and price the convenience into a the cost of a kit. Pay more for the ease of having everything you need in one box... except when they don't put everything you need in that box 🤦‍♂️

That's a chunky fish - well dangled that man! 👍

Good session! Well done the pair of you. 👍

I'm in for two caps please.
