Im a new member to the club. Ive been fishing the rough ground marks for the past year and have been reasonably successful. Ive caught many different fish including some small tope and rays. I would love to fish an inshore wreck but havent any idea where to find them or where i can find out. if anybody could give me some advice, or at lest point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated
Phil
As more and more club members take more and more trips out to the local wrecks you can expect more information to become available.
As a club member you will have access to the restricted areas of this site and I would expect this to be increasingly populated with the sort of information that you are looking for.
wreck positions themselves are marked on most electronic charts and many paper ones, with book like DIVE Dorset containing much useful information.
I hope you enjoy your time with the club.
Hi Phil
Firstly welcome to the club. I have just updated your status on the forum so you now have access to all areas.
I do not have much experience at wreck fishing but I,m sure others will point you in the right direction.

Errr let me think...
General fishing at this time of year...
...Unless you can get out about 30 miles I would suggest on yer sofa at home with Discovery Home and Leisure watching Matt Hayes catch the same carp fr the 200th time.
Sorry to be pessimistic!

Take care to check the datums that they use for EACH wreck. They vary. I haven't found the numbers to be too accurate.

Here's another one for Weymouth.
Again, the numbers are a mix of WSG84 and OSG36.

Ancient Buddhist script.........You can fish for whatever you want glasshopper, It is whether the fish are there that only the fish know ![]()
I know the feeling, but Feb/March is the time of year that sea fish seem to go totaly off feed. Most of the inshore species are off somewhere doing fishy sex and the fish that come inshore in December/January (Cod & Whiting) slidedle off back into deeper water. There may be the odd flounder about in the smaller channels and creeks, fish the channel edges into the shallow sides of the channels.
Take a book too ![]()

I cover the Weymouth and Portland area on my site www.btinternet.com/~weybsac . It's aimed at divers primarily but it's the same wrecks...
Down at Weymouth, the bass are still around altho only 2-3 lb with the occassional 5 lber. Also there are reports of plaice being caught already.
I'm out from there tomorrow (if the weather god shall be so kind) I'll tell you if I catch or not.
thanks to everyone for their help and advise

Phil,
The fishing was dire today. We had one doggies and two pout. Fished for around 3-4 hours total. You are welcome to the co-ords of the pout mark ( If only I had them to hand )
