[shocker]

went out the night before last,full moon,tide up,falling spate.....lovely.However in a normal shocker incident I fell in the dark onto my injured right hand and passed out from the pain.Came to after an hour or so with a touch of hypothermia and had to spend yesterday in bed.The fishing?No real contacts,a brownie on a peach rubber wiggle tail that shook itself free
more shirking

Same night

Hi Ya Shocker.
I went out on same night on the Fowey too,same as you,all I got was a small brownie,and never heard any sea trout jumping as I did the week before.
My accidents was getting caught up in the trees,so I left me rods dangling in them and picked them up on the way back,thats why I take 3 rods all set up

Just come back from a little scout around Trago....small pods of 20" fish,interspersed with their little hangers on,showing.....so the fish are in the river.I still have too much of a hand injury to do much about it though!

A few pics of some Fowey fish in May this year,the fish with the white spot on his head would have easily tipped the scales over 10lb...

Awesome pics Stump!

Where on the river were these taken? A pal saw a pod of fish in that size bracket at Newbridge several weeks ago now... great to see them. Always seem to run straight through the bottom end where I fish.

Stump,

3 weeks and the boys will be there - for a week long session!!!!

I hope there'll be a few more in by then, but those biggies will be well up now, and have probably entertained the shoppers at Trago for a few days!

Hi folks,

Anyone seen the river today/yesterday? Would imagine it's dropped back low again?


Cheers in advance

June Week

June Week

I had my annual week on the Fowey at Wainsford from 9-16th June.

Out of 9 anglers, only one blanked. Most of the fish were in the 2 -2.5lb class but on the very last night I caught a nice fresh fish of 5.5lb, my biggest ever sea trout. I caught it on one of Ian Finlayas's black snakes, so thanks for that Ian!
I caught three for the whole week, although we did see some very big fish in Dirty Water Pool, and the River Warlaggan.

Has the recent rain brought in a run of salmon up the Fowey and where have they got to? Also can tickets still be purchased from the pet shop in Liskeard?
Thanks. Any info much appreciated.

Also can tickets still be purchased from the pet shop in Liskeard?

To answer my own question for the benefit of anyone; tickets can be purchased at Fishing Mayhem, Higher Lux St.
