Here’s a look at what you can expect to find in issue 472, courtesy of the ‘Contents’ page:

FEATURES

Pearly Whites

White ragworms are often described as a magic bait because they can be deadly on the hook, but is this controversial offering worth the effort?

As well as the main magazine features that you can see above, Sea Angler also has dedicated Boat Angler and Bass Angler sections. Here’s a look inside those two specialist sections…

BOAT ANGLER
Indiana Jones
Continuing Sea Angler’s series of fishing with top skippers, they board Indiana, a superb Cougar Cat skippered by Steve Jones out of Cardiff. Join them on an adventure to see if the rays are feeding.

Irish Cod Could Give You Gillers Wrist
For nearly a decade, anglers have struggled to catch cod along the south coast of Ireland, but now they are back in huge numbers, as Byron Way and Rob Thomas found out when they fished close to Kinsale.

Boat Tackle Shop
New clothing and bits for the boat to make life at sea easier.

This Boat Has The Edge
Dave Lewis steps aboard an Edgewater 228CC, a speedster that can race full bore out to those distant wrecks.

Three Star Kayak Training Course

The more Andy Benham, who’s training to be a British Canoe Union kayak coach, learns, the less he seems to know. Once he reckoned ignorance is bliss…not any more.

Fishing Down Florida Way
Bristol Channel charter fishing slows down during August, so that’s when Minehead skipper Dave Roberts takes a break. Sea Angler follow him to Florida’s Gulf Of Mexico.

Braid Of Many Colours
Contributing editor Dave Lewis asks if colour-coded braids are a fancy gimmick or an essential line marker.

Construct A Conger Trace
Stories of lost conger eels are legion and it is usually down to unfit for purpose traces, says Russ Symons. He shows you how to make a five-star trace.

BASS ANGLER
Can You Walk The Walk?
Join Luke Holliday on a long-distance fishing mission into the Solway Firth.

Irish Catchlines
John Quinlan looks at how foul weather has favoured fishing.

Bass Gallery
A round-up of the month’s best bass catches with a special prize for the best story or fish.

A Balancing Act

Some rod and reel outfits feel wrong, says Sea Angler’s bass expert Henry Gilbey. He reckons large unbalanced fixed-spool reels have no place on shorter modern lure rods.

Sign Up – You Know It Makes Sense!

Interested in joining BASS? Then Geoff Gonella, the society’s catch recorder, explains how it all works and what’s on offer.

Eyes Wide Shut
Brighton pro guide Robin Howard, who is known as Fishyrob, works the South Coast beats for bass. Here he offers you some vital advice.

When Do Bass Focus On Food?
When do fish, and especially bass, feed? Dedicated bass angler Mike Ladle has his own theories.
