Even in the cold you can still get a nibble!


Just because the days are getting shorter and colder it doesn't mean that you have to back away your bait and rods, there is still fish to catch. We're so passionate about fishing that we like to get out there every season, so in this weeks blog we're going to talk about what's still swimming in our seas.

As the weather hasn't gotten to cold yet, there will still be some of the summer fish to be had, especially on the southern coast. You may still be lucky enough to hook some mackerel, thornback ray and large bass and pollock. As autumn moves closer to winter you are more likely to see whiting and flatfish such as flounder and dab.

As we move into the new year and the water gets colder then the cod fishing becomes more abundant, although be wary of the smaller cod as they have a habit of  stealing the bait and becoming a nuisance. If you're brave enough to venture out on the coldest of days then it could be extremely rewarding, with a chance of catching three-bearded-rockling, pouting and even an Atlantic wolffish.

Target Shooting a great sport for everyone! In this week’s blog we want to tell you about one of the most inclusive sports around, Target Shooting. Target shooting is a great sport for everyone, men, women, children and the physically challenged. It covers three disciplines including shotgun, pistol and rifle.   Now shooting clubs are going the extra mile to make sure that the sport is becoming accessible to all, with acoustic shooting being one of the newest ways. Acoustic Shooting Acoustic shooting uses specially adapted rifles fitted with special sights, which measure the level of light reflected from a target.

Field Target Shooting Field target shooting has been popular for several decades now and takes place outdoors in woodlan
