TaxiDriver Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 I know there's a few Sea Anglers on here, So Im hoping someone can answer a few questions for me please. Whats the difference in inshore and offshore, (when does in shore become offshore) What does Knots(?sp) equate to in MPH ? Typically how many miles out to sea for say COD(amongst other species) Mackerel What size of boat is a minimum ? (Typically 16'-18' seems popular) That's all I can think of for now taaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankeedoodlepigeon Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) I know there's a few Sea Anglers on here, So Im hoping someone can answer a few questions for me please. Whats the difference in inshore and offshore, (when does in shore become offshore) 12nm What does Knots(?sp) equate to in MPH ? http://www.militaryfactory.com/conversioncalculators/speed_knots_to_miles_per_hour.asp Typically how many miles out to sea for say COD(amongst other species) Mackerel. Can get either anywhere Cod mainly on rocky ground. What size of boat is a minimum ? (Typically 16'-18' seems popular). Yes popular and good enough I would not see you going more than a few miles from shore. Edited June 22, 2012 by yankeedoodlepigeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 A friend of mine used to have a small 14 foot forward cuddy we used to go 3 mile out in. Mackrell are pretty much everywhere even 1/2 a mile out as can the Cod be depending on the topography of the sea bed. Deeper waters tend to improve the size of your fish but I have never fished further than 6 mile out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Typically 16'-18' seems popular) That's all I can think of for now taaa offshore is 12nm from memory 1 Knot is roughly 1.15MPH Hard to say how far to go out for certain species...You can get most from a beach/rock mark depending where you are in the UK...from Norfolk last year in the winter had cod, dabs, whiting and flounders and now the summer is here bass and makkie have moved in so will be hitting the beach again next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
