Bossington   
Does anyone know if it is worth casting plugs and jellies from the beach 
near Bossington rocks in Somerset?
Im doing a 24hr trip later this month and thought it might give me a break 
from the bottom but only if fish are a viable prospect.

Do you mean Hurlstone pt area?  I have caught on artificials in July/Aug but
you are going a bit early in the season...  Worth trying though. 

Don't be afraid to try at all stages of light - even pitch dark.  Take a few
mepps type too in case the water's badly coloured.

Cheerio,

got on when I get back.
