Both very rough ground marks, with fishing from high reefs onto broken ground.

Quantoxhead is the area to the left of the big bay, fishing here is from shallower reefs. Expect high tackle losses. Suited to experienced good casters. Definitely a winter venue.

Quantoxhead - Low water up to three hours back.

Kilve - Low water to three hours back.There is potential for high water fishing in the bay.

Tides in the 4.5 to 5.5 metres are best.

Cod in the 1.5 to 9 Kilos (3 to 20 lb) range are common, as are Thornback Ray, Whiting, Pouting and some hefty Conger Eels.

Rag or Lug tipped with Squid or Crab.

Pulley, Pennell rigs with lead lifts.Use hooks that will bend out and not snap if they become snagged.Rotten bottom is a worthwhile option.

M5, Junction 25, to Taunton, A358 to Williton, A39 towards Bridgwater. At Kilve, turn left at The Hood Arms pub, follow this lane over several sleeping policemen. Park in the car park by the stone work, walk through the kissing gate across the field onto the front.

Parking In the car park at the end of the lane.

A potentially dangerous venue, with several cut off points, especially the left hand reefs, the water will run in behind you and bubble up through the reefs.

Don't Fish alone at night.

Take a secondary light source, it can be slippery and dangerous.
