Adam F Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Cant do Thurs, but am going out Weds night for sure, no room on BW though, need to start delivering the promises of trips to various friends and collegues! Will probably be congering though as opposed to Sole fishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swainiac Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Are you guys decided on a date yet? I am able to crew Thursday, unfortunately, its sisters and mums B day on the wed, so a meal out that day, big sis on sat, so cant do the BBQ either The kids fly back early o clock on friday, and wasting zero time, I'm out with BB on a comp later that day! Tight lines if I'm unable to crew. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam F Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Dont think Ill be able to make it Jimbo - work commitments and all that. Plus there is a comittee meeting tonight which would have taken top priority. Have a good night. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 What under water structure (if any) do we look for? Or do we just look for some rough patch drifting/anchored waiting for the sole to look for food? P.S which type of sole is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam F Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Kam, Dover Sole - Lemons are extremely rare this far East, further down towards Cornwall they get them more regular. You will need an smooth sandy bottom for Sole - not rough ground, as they are a flatfish and invaribly bury themselves in the sand. The mark we fish is about 10-15' deep, a ssandy bottom with ridges in it caused I think by the tide. Sole feed much better at night. A spinning rod, size 8-10 hooks and ragworm or lug is what is required. We fish anchored as the sole often needs a few minutes to get the bait down his mouth.
