Sea Fishing Angling

Dont know if Veals still do them but the Mike Ladle 4surespin fits your requirements perfectly depending on what you were looking at spending.

Will it detect a sole bite which is more akin to a pull than a tremble? Time will tell- be interesting to see the results.

I didnt realise you were familiar with South Fambridge Eccles.
Peeler might not be any good where you are but it is a top bait in Essex as is ragworm- nice juicy King Rag. You have to match your bait to the ground you're fishing.

Try rag and peeler for the bass.

Boom tschhhh

I was going to suggest using smaller hooks but you're not using big hooks. make sure they're razor sharp- might improve your hook ups- I've never been convinced on pulley pennel rigs for the fish you were targetting (if you were using a pulley pennel) - I would only use them on rough ground.

Could be time to wind up this site there's so few people posting.

Anyway Hope you have a good Christmas.

I was always taught that flounders suck in their bait so not to reel in on getting a bite- best to let the bite develop and allow the fish time to suck the bait in. Might prove a big challenge with the method being proposed but good luck and let us know how you get on.

Ignore the negative comment. I do.
Great pic thanks for posting.

I've seen the odd one being sold second hand but doubt any shops would still hold one. You'd be better off putting a post on one of the boat fishing forums (if its the uptider you want) or keep looking at Ebay

Well you certianly got that accordingt to the BBC News.
