Off to Newquay Saturday Anyone fished the headland, I have but a few years ago now, was hoping to do a bit of plugging, spinning and usual types of fishing a couple of times during the week, so anyone got any tips to fish there or around Crantock, baits, types of plugs etc, do I have to walk over that bloody great mountain at the end of the headland or anywhere there the carpark side of it?

I have fished Towan head but not the other one and there is a carpark at the bottom of the hill but the loos were closed last time I was there
as you look up the hill from the carpark there are a number of spots you can fish on your right without going over the hill I normally float fish here for Gars and Mackeral if they are about as all I ever catch on the bottom is Wrasse. The year before last there was a chap fishing the large rock outcrop at the end and he had a Turbot by casting a mackeral strip across the currant and letting it drift round
Have Fun

Only got a chance to fish one day, as the weather wasn't that good every time I had an afternoon spare, but had the usual, macks gars and wrasse, tried a bit of spinning with some sidewinder lures, not a sniff ! Had a walk round the head but was too dangerous to get down on the rocks, with the strong winds blowing south west. realised though that I could do with a longish LRF rod that could chuck out up to 40grms, as I was using an any fish 2+bait rod, still making my arms ache spinning, any recommendations? don't want to spend more than about £60

Go light with LRF gear, go for the mini's on bits of plastic!

Went into their shop in Falmouth last Thursday, didn't really see anything that took my fancy, there was'nt that many rods to choose from, probably a dozen of all types.
