Fishing News and Adventures
Fishing generates so many brilliant experiences. There are loads of highs and of course the lows. Not everyday fishing is full of sunshine and big fish, but that’s what make it interesting. The Fishing News and Adventures page will keep you up to date with activity at The School Of Fish, whether we caught a monster or not.
Oh baby it’s cold outside!
There’s still lots of good fishing to be had but there’s no doubt it gets a little bit harder and being smart with time is more important than ever.
Big ones at last!
Third cast and here come the “wild swimmers” to whom I remarked, “which one of us looks more daft, you or me!?”. It was 6:30am, dark and fresh. I kind of admired their adventure but I wasn’t about to swap my fishing rod for a pair of speedos!
Big fish or Bust!
September, autumn, less day light, crowds gone, big winds, big seas and, if you get it right, big fish. That’s the theory anyway.
August, it’s over too quickly
That’s one of the things I love about fishing, each season brings new adventures and new weather to enjoy.
Atlantic Blue Fin Tuna Fishing in Cornwall

Turning 40, in the rain, catching Bass
Whilst we hatched “plan b” we enjoyed watching a minki whale joined by rissos dolphins and more common dolphins and porpoises than you you shake a stick at. Lovely to see the bay coming to life again and a little earlier this year.
It’s a long winter, so get up at 4am!
The best fishing I have enjoyed this year has nearly all come to those two hours on a friday morning. You don’t need to be there all weekend to catch a good one.
For the love of Crucian Carp
Looking back through my May photos, I think the March weather saying, “in like a lion, out like a lamb” would be spot on. May started with temperatures still low with wet and windy weather. Typing now at the end of the month, it’s hot!
A fish of a lifetime
It’s April and the fishing lesson fun has begun! The long daylight hours and the increasing (slightly) temperatures have got the fish on the move and on the feed and everything just feels a bit easier.
Over the Rainbows
It’s been an interesting month with a few fish gracing my nets and I finally got the 2023 fishing lessons dates sorted.
