Few photos from this morning.Paddled out into a murky sea. Fishing a bit hard with a big tide ebbing and a fresh southerly wind . Anchoring the best option so dropped the cadge in mixed ground off Cambois.












Whitings homed in on the razor/mussel baited hooks best over 2lb















Mr cod not making a show till this fella gave itself up














Time for a move inshore into rougher ground. Couple of eating sized cod was a result










Heavens opened and down it came earlier than forcast





















Nice to get the feeling back in my fingers and a hot drink lovely ...........Dave.

You're Barking Mad!

Thought I was quite "hardy" when it comes to fishing in cold weather, but you deserve a medal, and a lot more fish for braving the conditions today. A massive............well done !

[Ankle.Biter]

superb, I've got absolute admiration for getting out in that bloody awful weather.


Me, I would need to fish from indoors.

BIG ZOOK we just sold a yak same as one i used today for £275, this is a buyers time of year once spring/summer aproach there is more demand, thing is if you buy second hand you dont loose out when you sell. Important thing is the safety aspect. In my opinion a drysuit all year round is a must with suitable clothing under, a bouancy aid, a vhf radio, spare paddle, handheld gps, backup compass. If you look on Anglers afloat website there is all the info anyone could ask for on all aspects and often full packages come up for sale which is the best route to take also keep a watch on ebay etc.Good luck...........Dave.

Ha, sounds like my boat, all the gear, no idea........... Where the hell it is
These lads on these kayaks are mad ( they are probably just really keen ) but , I love to see their reports , it looks like great fun , or torture
