Guide to Shore Fishing in Jersey

This is only a rough guide to the fishing
that can be expected in the month of : July



Very similar to June, although the fishing in July often shows a slump in the quantity of catches landed...

Fishing for thick-lipped mullet from the harbours and other known marks such as the Dicq and Noirmont, etc., has to be seriously considered..... make sure your using light tackle and ground bait frequently, otherwise you'll be wasting your time...

Spinning / plugging for bass, pollack, mackerel, and garfish from rocky marks......

Ballan wrasse are also worth targeting from such places as Elizabeth Castle, the new land reclamation sites, and other rocky marks around the coast.

Fishing for Black Bream is still a possibility, from marks such as Bouley Bay, St.Catherine's Breakwater, St.Brelades, Elizabeth Castle, Le Saie, L'Etacquerel etc, etc...

General ground fishing should offer flatfish, dogfish, rays, scad, pouting, as well as the option to fish for conger esp. from the NW coast such as Grosnez.

Another possibility is to target smoothounds from St.Catherine's Breakwater, Belcroute, etc...
