Hamstead Ledge

(5.9/10)

1.3 miles from Cranmore

Hamstead Ledge is a quiet, low-water mixed-ground mark on the north-west Isle of Wight coast, where broken rock, weed and silty patches meet deeper Solent water. It is reached by a fairly long walk along coastal paths and foreshore rather than easy roadside access; fishing is most productive around the...

Bouldnor

(6.2/10)

1.5 miles from Cranmore

Bouldnor is a quiet, lightly fished Solent shingle-and-mud shore below wooded low cliffs, generally reached on foot from local parking and coastal paths. It suits mobile anglers fishing the flooding tide for bass and flatfish, while longer casts over clean patches can produce rays, dogfish and seasonal summer visitors; check...

Newtown Creek

(4.7/10)

1.5 miles from Cranmore

A quiet, shallow tidal creek within Newtown Harbour, best approached on foot from Newtown village and the old quay area rather than as a conventional open-coast mark. Fish only from suitable public, firm margins at sensible stages of the tide: the muddy channels can produce flounder, small bass, mullet and...

Yarmouth Pier

(6.1/10)

2.4 miles from Cranmore

Yarmouth Pier is a long, rail-lined public pier projecting into the tidal waters by Yarmouth Harbour and the River Yar entrance. It is an easy town-based mark with level access and deepish moving water, best for light-to-medium tackle, float fishing and ledgering around the flood and ebb; summer pelagic fish...

Bass Pollack Pouting Plaice Flounder

Yarmouth Harbour Wall

(5.8/10)

2.6 miles from Cranmore

Yarmouth Harbour Wall is a sheltered, tide-influenced harbour-side mark close to the river mouth, reached easily on foot from Yarmouth’s town, quay and parking areas. Fishing is generally light-tackle and finesse-led around moving water, with boats, pontoons and harbour traffic limiting casting room; it is best suited to short sessions...

Bass Pollack Flounder Mackerel Common Goby

Fort Victoria

(6.7/10)

3.4 miles from Cranmore

A shingle-and-mixed-ground Solent mark beside Fort Victoria Country Park, fished from the beach and firmer foreshore around the old coastal defences. Parking is close, followed by a short walk, and the relatively sheltered water suits tide-led sessions for flatfish, bass and rays, with summer pelagics within casting range at times.
