Having all you kit in a bag or box helps if you need to follow the tide in or move back on an incoming tide. ![IMG_20220529_091429](https://www.fishthecoast.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Bulk%20resize/IMG_20220529_091429.jpg?width=2006&height=1504&name=IMG_20220529_091429.jpg "IMG_20220529_091429") ### Mixed ground Normally a good shot with multiple species about, if you are fishing the rocks make sure you keep an eye on the incoming tide as water can fill the valleys and surround you. Well worth looking around for fresh bait if the water is out. ![IMG_20210730_171723 (1)](https://www.fishthecoast.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Bulk%20resize/IMG_20210730_171723%20(1).jpg?width=2006&height=1504&name=IMG_20210730_171723%20(1).jpg "IMG_20210730_171723 (1)") ### Pier's, jetty and harbour fishing Many people's preferred spots, normally you dont have to worry about the incoming tide becoming an issue, the water tends to be deep enough on many to fish the tide up or down and casting distance may not make a difference. A lot of these fishing marks are open to the public and are quite easy to access's. As with any mark make sure you check any laws or warning signs before setting up. Read up on some of the local marks below. ![IMG_20220415_074855](https://www.fishthecoast.co.uk/hubfs/Bulk%20resize/IMG_20220415_074855.png) ## Some of our favourite spots Deciding which spot you want to fish can sometimes be a pain, take a look at some of favourite and not so favourite fishing marks by clicking the link below.
