So yesterday I hired a boat and took out my brother in law into Chichester Harbour for the day. He is a river / reservoir angler. He struggled a bit casting clousers,but managed to get enough distance. There was a reasonably strong north easterly blowing which did not bode good, however we had a good day. In total we caught about 30 bass between us and a couple of mackeral. All taken on chartruese and white clousers in relatively shallow water. Once we drifted into slightly deeper water the bites dried up, even when using a heavy sinking line. So the fish are definitely here.
Also if anyone else fancies sharing the cost of a boat let me know, weekdays best as the harbour gets busy at weekends. |

Good to hear the fish have arrived over there, well done Scierra.
Shallow water is definitely where it's at, the shallower the better.  |

Well done Tommo. Sounds like we have all caught fish now, except for a certain inhabitant of Pompey who has been blanking since the middle of last season  |
