Depends where you go, the tides, time of day, bait/lure, etc. I was canoeing last Thursday evening on the Exe estuary when the tide was rising. I saw two chaps pull something out just as I was putting my canoe in the water.

Well my son went out the other night, came back with four nice little whiting, and his mates had a few also.
That was in Kent at the Hythe beach night tide.
