United Kingdom Fishing Reports

fished seagull today around noon, it was drizzly and kinda chilly but it felt great to be out. i brought my trusty old rod and a box of lures, mostly using a black buzzbait. caught 4 pike, all around 2-4 lbs! they were biting pretty good around the fallen trees. had 1 that almost got away but i managed to reel it in. definitely need to go back and try again soon, maybe when it stops raining haha! peace out!

fished at Helmsdale today, july 4th. got a bit of patchy rain but it didn't stop us. caught 5 salmon, biggest was around 7lbs! used my trusty fly rod with a black and silver streamer, they were hitting it pretty hard. the wind picked up later in the day, but we found a nice spot sheltered from it. felt awesome to be out there, even with the weather trying to spoil the fun. sunset was beautiful too, perfect way to end the day. can't wait to go back!

hey folks, fished off the south coast near Southampton today. it was pretty wet with that rain comin down, but we braved it. temp was chilly too, only around 11°C. ended up landing 4 mackerel and one decent gurnard! used my trusty old spinning rod with a size 1 hook and some fresh mackerel strips as bait, those fish just couldn't resist. the wind was a bit of a pain, gusts at 27 km/h made it tough to keep the line in the water at times. but man, when they hit, it felt awesome! just wish my buddy had brought the good rain gear, he was soaked. all in all, had a blast out there, can't wait to do it again even if the weather isn't great.

fished at grafham today, awesome partly cloudy day with a nice temp of around 23. got there pretty early, like 5 AM, and started off with some buzz baits. caught this massive trout, must've been like 5 lbs! felt like a battle, seriously. switched to a fly rod later, tried some nymphs, but the action was kinda slow after that. a few small perch here and there but man, that trout was the highlight for sure. had a great time just being on the water and soaking in the scenery, can't beat it. wind picked up a bit in the afternoon but overall, solid day out there. looking forward to going back soon!

yo, went to deal this mornin' and man, what a mix of weather! had patchy light rain and some thunder, but we didn’t let that stop us. i got out there early, around 4 am, and tossed out my new spinner rod with a light jig. fish were bitin' a little slow at first but after the rain eased up I pulled in a beauty of a cod, about 4 lbs! used my favorite green squid jig which always seems to do the trick. wind was chill but only a light breeze so it was bearable. ended up catching a couple more smaller ones, but that big cod made my day. nice and fresh for dinner tonight! 🌧️🎣

hit dungeness today, was kinda drizzly n cool but didn’t let that stop me. got there just after sunrise and the water was like glass. used my trusty old spinning rod with a 1/2oz jig, and man, hooked into 5 good sized flounders! the biggest was about 2.5 lbs. they were biting pretty good despite the rain, but the wind picked up a bit around noon so it got tricky. still, totally worth it. packed up around 3pm when it started pouring more heavily. can’t wait to go back when the weather clears up! tight lines everyone!

fished at deal pier today, bit of a wet morning but we braved it! caught a couple decent whiting, just under a pound each. used squid for bait, seemed to be the ticket. wind was pretty strong, felt like lifting off at times haha. rain held off mostly, but the sky was really moody. love that atmosphere by the pier. felt like a proper fishing day, even if the bites were slow. can't wait to go again, summer's just around the corner! tight lines!

light rain today and a bit breezy, but got a good session in! caught 3 solid salmon, around 4-5 lbs. it felt nice to be out there with the fresh air, used a jig that I made myself! feeling proud with the catch!
