I know what you mean about fishing spots but when sea fishing in particular some people spend a great deal of time learning about a particular area, when and how to fish it.Nick Harthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05840156897321769948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157201289089465376.post-28660666945098228512010-11-05T15:08:52.121Z2010-11-05T15:08:52.121ZI totally agree Nick. The internet is a fishing life line (floating WF #6)<br /><br />The increase in fishing sites online has demystified so much of the sport. It has opened it up and made specialist knowledge more accessible. <br /><br />Two things stand out for me: <br /><br />The first is a new generation of high quality, self published sites that really showcase the energy and excitement of fishing. They blow away stuffy preconceptions and celebrate freedom, creativity and fun.<br /><br />You mentioned Fat Guy Fly Fishing above, and Henry&#39;s great site, but you can add so many to this list...<br /><br />http://www.moldychum.com,<br />http://www.ffisw.com, http://www.catchmagazine.net, http://www.thisisfly.com<br /><br />...and the list could go on and on. <br /><br />I&#39;ve just spent 15 minutes looking at those while getting the URLs, which is kind of my second point, in that reading these great sites is a substitute for fishing. It fills that gap when you can&#39;t get out, when the season&#39;s over or when you&#39;re stuck at work on a rainy day.<br /><br />If I had 2 gripes about fishing web sites it would be that we have more than our fair share of horrendous, totally awful, unusable, never updated sites out there. And there&#39;s also still a holding back of information on where to fish. Local knowledge of venues and good spots is kept under wraps far too much.<br /><br />I&#39;m not sure these will change any time soon, but I&#39;m more than happy with all my favourites. <br /><br />Keep up the good work<br /><br />DDavid Burtonhttp://www.blurredfocus.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157201289089465376.post-81326648410415744162010-11-05T13:51:52.292Z2010-11-05T13:51:52.292ZHi Stuart, I have a few marks along the North Devon coast but also head to a few on the South. Weather dictates the best location.

However, the recent visit to Ireland has really got me fired up for the saltwater again.
