The late October storms have bought many specimen fish to feed close to the shore with reports of bass, whiting, dover sole, ray, dogfish and conger eels. Bring it on!
Luke Ripley sent this picture of a lovely 5lb 3oz bass caught last on a low water session at Eastbourne. Great catch and picture - Thanks Luke.
'I had a good night 2 congers my first ever off the beach first one was a 105cm then at high tide the beast came along at 126cm' Great to hear!

Boat Angling Catch News - Eastbourne Sovereign Harbour
Thanks Stewart Curtis for this great picture and report:
'Had a great day fishing Sunday with Pete Lavington on our boat ‘Indio 2’ out of Sovereign Harbour. We started down east catching thick plaice, doggies, gurnard and a nice thorn back ray (all caught on Anglers Den lug) and finished the session on the Horse catching bass and pollack. These two beauties were a bonus with the bass 3.5 lb and the pollack 10.5lb.'

Thanks Barry Roberts for this report and picture:
'Morning guys. I had a fantastic night fishing up white horses, after 3 hours of nothing but whiting the beasts came out to play. Had a big bite but missed it and pulled in a rather sorry looking whiting. less than 10 mins later whilst baiting up the other rod I saw my line come slack and after a nearly 15 minute battle I landed the biggest fish I've ever caught from beach, boat or lake, a 21lb 5oz conger eel that was almost as long as I am tall. I got lucky because he hit a whiting up the line and ended up with the hook perfectly in his bottom jaw where he couldn't bite through the trace and then about an hour later I had a second one at 9lb 1oz on a lump of mackerel. Definitely made up for a lot of lost fishing time this year'
