Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 27, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I have finally got my car back, so I can get out and about again. I may well head out towards Cogden as my mate is going to be fishing   down there today. He managed 3 Plaice and a load of Rockling from the same mark yesterday. Interestingly he had the Plaice on Ragworm [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 25, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Very mixed results from various marks this weekend. I know quite a few people headed of in search of the Plaice and most were unsuccessful. There were a few exceptions with a couple of thin 3lb fish coming from the left of West Bexington. What I have been surprised at is the number of Smoothound that [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 24, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I had hoped to get out to West Bexington with my mate today, but unfortunately I have to go car hunting instead. Maybe that’s not such a bad thing in these temperatures. I take my hat off to all of you that are out there fishing in this cold, I see from Windguru that with the wind chill [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 22, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I mentioned the strong Easterly winds were creating a bit of surf on Weymouth Esplanade and along to Preston. It seems that it has brought in quite a few Bass that I was not expecting this time of year. A very reliable source went out yesterday afternoon and fished over high water and into darkness for [...]

By Sean McSeveny On February 21, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Strong Easterly winds are going to take quite a few marks out today, but it will open out a few more. Chesil will be pretty flat, the calm conditions and lack of rain will soon see the water clearing. Which is what I am hoping for because reports coming in say that there are quite [...]

By Sean McSeveny On February 19, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Still struggling with no Mac, so sorry for the lack of frequency of the posts at the moment. The weekend has pretty much gone as I expected with about 10% of anglers that targeted Plaice actually managing to catch some   spotties, and some of them were decent fish.  A couple were over 3lb and [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 16, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
Light winds, some sunshine and almost calm conditions on Chesil. Ideal for a days Plaice fishing, and yes there are some Plaice showing. It seems that each year the Plaice are getting earlier and earlier, and this year is no exception. Other Plaice marks along the South coast such as Eastney and Brighton have reported [...]

Sorry for the lack of updates over the past couple of days and not finishing the LRF article I have been promising for ages. Unfortunately my Mac has died on me again, this time I think it is beyond repair, so I have borrowed my Son’s beat up laptop. Until I can recover some of the [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 11, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I mentioned yesterday that I had heard rumours of Plaice being caught on Chesil. Well I finally got two confirmed reports that the first of the Plaice are returning from Spawning. The fish are as you would expect in poor condition, and looking rather thin. The first of the fish have turned up at West [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 10, 2013 · 1 Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
According to the weather forecast it is going to rain all day today, again. To be honest with the lack of fish at the moment it should give me an excuse to make up some rigs and maybe pour some more soft plastic lures. I fished on Portland yesterday and even the Wrasse were thin [...]

Oh how I wish I had great news of loads of fish being caught all along the Dorset coast, but I don’t. No point in lying, right now it sucks. Is that going to get me down? No! because I am hoping that the water will clear a bit more over the next day or [...]

Catch report & fishing forecast for Dorset including Chesil Beach, Portland & Weymouth

By Sean McSeveny On February 6, 2013 · Add Comment · In Chesil Beach, Reports
I have just had a look at Chesil and despite what the channel wave buoy’s are saying, Chesil is fishable. There is a bit of a swell but the surf run off is not too big. There is a lot of colour in the water, that might bring in the odd Cod that is still [...]

I think this weekend has to have been one of the worst for fishing for a long time. It is pretty normal for the fishing to switch off during January and February. We have been pretty lucky this year that it has lasted so long. I think the best we can do now is spend [...]

Fish at River Cottage

By Sean McSeveny On February 4, 2013 · Add Comment · In Guiding & fishing lessons, River Cottage
I was very lucky recently when a friend treated me to the Fish at River Cottage course. I have to admit that although I love to fish and cook I am not a lover of fish, but I have always believed that this was down to the fish being poorly prepared and cooked in the [...]

I hope you are not sat at home reading this instead of being out there chasing the fish on Chesil. Conditions are near perfect for a chance of a decent fish today. The Northerly wind maybe cold, but you will be fairly sheltered on Chesil. I had a look  at the beach at Abbotsbury on [...]

How to rig a lure with a weedless hook

By Sean McSeveny On February 1, 2013 · 2 Comments · In Lure, Tips
I will be totally honest here and say that most of this article is not my own work. I was about to do a post on rigging weedless lures when I noticed that Steve Butler, a fellow Scotsman and friend of mine now living in Cornwall had created just what I needed. So with his [...]

For once the weather is doing what it is forecast to do, and the winds have settled down and swung round to be more Northerly. Chesil beach has already calmed down to a much safer level and it looks very good for fishing. With high water at around 10pm this evening I can see some [...]
