About fishing conditions at Chesil Beach

Chesil Beach is a beach on the South West coast. Its fishing conditions are scored every morning from the wind, tide range, barometric pressure and air temperature forecast at the nearest tide gauge, Bournemouth, on a 0 to 100 scale across the next ten days.

The score is a planning aid, not a guarantee. Calm to light wind, a moving tide and a falling barometer tend to fish best. Always check the local forecast and fish safely, and cross-check the Bournemouth tide times before heading out.
