Some more lures have landed today. Hopefully a few more po***ck and coalfish start showing now and these will be perfect.

AXIA casting lures in 60g

Brand New for 2026 from AXIA Fishing is their Orbital range of rods.

I have the Bass Lure rod (rrp £33.99) and the Flattie rod (rrp £39.99) in the shop now.

The quality of these rods is fantastic for the price range. The Flattie rod will be perfect for fishing off the harbour here in Stonehaven.

Part of my HTO Lures order has arrived.

40g jigs restocked.

The sinking version of the Bombarda kit is now in stock along with the floating and semi sinking kits.

The 3.45m carbon handle and net, lightweight and perfect for landing those bigger fish at higher marks.

I was expecting some 60g lures and jigs also, hopefully they arrive tomorrow, if not it will be next week unfortunately.

Difficult conditions last night on the rocks with a south easterly breeze stirring the sea up. The breeze also made it difficult to control the lure and keep it out of the snags.

I caught half a dozen Mackerel, some small Coalfish and this nice Po***ck.

All caught on a HTO pathfinder roadkill 28g lure. (Which I eventually lost to a snag 🤷)

All fish returned.

I have just had a delivery of some more HTO Lures

I have added the 42g Roadkills and topped up with some more 40g Tic Tacs.

Plus some more of the popular 28g Roadkills

There are also some smaller size 6 white feather rigs from Tronixpro.

TUESDAY 18th AUGUST

Another successful trip out onto the rocks yesterday evening. Trying a completely new mark resulting in a cracking Po***ck on small 17g jig.

Plenty of Mackerel, Coalfish and even a Poor Cod on the bait rod.

Absolute stunner of an evening including an appearance from the Dolphins around 100 yards out!

All fish released apart from one Mackerel which I kept for bait.
