ive just got back from st austell
lucky enough to have a friend who has just retired down there and has a boat moored at fowey, had a nice afternoon out with him, about a mile out - pollack,codling,gurnard,mackerel,wrasse, all on feathers - nothing big but a cracking way to spend a few hours.
there is a charter boat that goes out from mevagissy, the 'bessie vee', he recomends it, have a look on its web site for some catch pics
if you head out towards truro you will find a pub called 'the wheel' i think the town name is trewellin ( or similar, my maps in the car and i cant be arsed to go get it )
the pubs car park has the river fal right behind it, we stopped off for a pint one night and just caught it at high tide, ive never seen anything like it, it was thick with mullet, like an ornemenatal pond with them cruising just under the surface, i swear you could have walked over the river on there backs there was so many - a chap in the pub also told me it was good for bass on light spinners

just checked my map, the town i meant is Tresillian, on the A390
check it out, its got to be seen to be believed, ive never seen so many fish, has to be high tide though, otherwise its nothing but a trickle in a muddy ditch
