When I first started chasing Bass around on the West Sussex coastline the one barrier I had was getting hold of the correct information, after all the sea is a big place and putting a fly in the middle of it seems to be more of a game of chance than certain probability.

"With the constant quest to push ourselves further – “getting the bug!” as we call it - the natural progression has been for fly fishermen to fish in saltwater. Since the 1930s the likes of the late Joe Brooks, with an ever growing array of anglers, have chased species in the salt, opening up new and exotic destinations and popularising the sport through the 70s, 80s and 90s as the cost of air travel has come down."
