Welcome to my shore angling site.
Where I hope to keep you up to date with fishing reports and marks that are fishing well. And with help from you the angler a site you can trust to print your concerns relating to our sport.
Coming from Edinburgh on the east coast of Scotland we mainly stick to the east coast for our fishing yet we do venture over to the west coast in search of bigger fish. You will find that Scotland has a wide range of species and each area has it's own residents, on the whole Scotland is one of the best places in the UK for sea angling whether it be from shore or boat. The shore line on the east coast is mainly rugged ground which is a favourite for the cod fishing, being the fish that most anglers tend to search for, but for the specimen hunters there is a great choice of species in our waters, Anglers never tend to fish on their own door step myself included we always seem to think of a place that we have got to travel to yet there are areas that will give you the same sport if not better at your feet, if you live next to the sea as I do take a walk one day and have a good look at what is around you. Every part of our coast line holds fish it's just a question of when the dinner bell goes for the fish, Fish travel round the coast looking for their food especially cod. In the deeper water marks you will get your resident fish that stay in that area most of the time like Wrasse and Small codling and conger eel. Fishing the east coast like all coasts depends on the weather and the tides, if the winds are not right and the tide is a neap then find deep water marks where the tidal flow doesn't affect the area as with shallower water marks.
