ILFRACOMBE BOAT FISHING

Dan Welch took a party of anglers on Predator 2 to wrecks out of Ilfracombe where they employed lure fishing tactics to temps quality pollock and ling.

They are also catching good numbers of stunning wrasse from reefs on lures.

My first lure fishing session of the season proved encouraging with two small bass succumbing to my lure. It was good to be back chasing these silver beauties in the shallow rocky waters of North Devon.
