Default Not a single bite!!

Thanks for very advise Pete.
Regarding Flounders - I have thought of using a float tackle with a spoon at
bottom off the local pier.
Remember years ago using this with some good success.
Regards,
Steve

Over the past month I have been fishing the south coast
mainly the Solent, Lepe, Calshot.
After many occasions I have caught absolutely nothing
and on most occasions I haven't even had a bite!!
What am I doing wrong?
I've used various tackle and various baits but still
no luck.
Can anyone give me some advise.
Bass and Flounders seem to be the fish to go for
in this area.

Regards, one frustrated and bemused fisherman
Steve.

Welcome to the Blankers Club
Have you tried scaling down the size of your hooks ? Plus you may be

fishing
the wrong baits for that particular area.
If there's flounder in the area, try fishing an hour each side of low tide
( if possible ) with worm baits. or when the run of the current is not so
strong,
Talk to some of the local anglers and get some tips off them, most
lads/lasses will be more helpfull in giving tips

Good Luck
Pete
