South Coast Spring Bass Bonanza: Reefs Firing, Pollack Hitting Five Pounds
from United Kingdom, South Coast Fishing Report Today · host Inception Point AI
G'day, mates, this is Artificial Lure, your South Coast angling guru, comin' at ya live from the salty breezes of the UK South Coast on Monday, April 13th, 2026, evenin' time 'round 10 PM. Weather's been a proper mix—mild 12-14°C days with light southerlies turnin' to calm nights, low rain chance, perfect for a late cast. Sunrise kicked off at 6:15 AM, sunset wrapped at 8:00 PM, givin' us a solid 13+ hours of light. Tides today? High water hit 4.5m around 10 AM at Brighton, low slack at 4 PM 'bout 1m, then buildin' back up—fish love that flood tide pushin' bait in. Solunar's average, waxin' gibbous moon at 64%, with major bites 'round dawn and dusk. Fish are wakin' up spring-style! Recent reports from BBC Weather and Angling Times show bass smashin' in from Sussex reefs, pollack up to 5lb off Dorset, mackerel shoals thick near the Needles, and early smoothhounds on the prowl. Lads at Portsmouth reported 20+ bass over weekend on feathers, plus codling to 3lb and a few rays. Numbers are buildin'—dozens of schoolies daily, quality fish pushin' double figures. Best lures? Ragworm-imitation soft plastics on 10g jigheads for bass, shiny Dexter wedges or Abu Toby spinners for pollack and macks—retrieve fast over reefs. Live bait? Peeler crabs or black lug for rays and hounds, mackerel strips for codling. Ragworm on the three-hook rig rules for flatties in the estuaries. Hot spots? Hit the wrecks off Selsey Bill for bass frenzy, or Beachy Head ledges for pollack—anchor up and drop baits deep. Shingle Beach at Eastbourne's firin' too. Tight lines, stay safe out there.
