If fishing is your passion, then there is no better place to indulge yourself. The coastline is dotted with harbours offering boats trips for wreck fishing, and for the young and less agile a happy afternoon can be spent handlining from the harbour wall.
The many reservoirs, lakes and rivers in Cornwall and Devon provide a happy home to the freshwater fisherman. Most coastal towns have a tackle shop where you can get friendly help and advice.
For details of lakes and rivers, where you can fish, pick up a copy of the
