The point of fishing cannot be just to catch fish, especially when you’re on The Point. As you can see from the photographs, it was a sunny day with pretty blue skies and puffy clouds, and we tried a different fishing venue – the Point at Teignmouth, where the river flows out to the sea, and where there is always a deep channel regardless of the state of the tides. For bait we made a change from our usual squid and, instead, used live rag-worms, frozen sand-eels and plastic fake sand-eels. It didn’t make any difference – we still didn’t catch anything except for two peeler crabs and two tons of seaweed!
