Bri,
You should know better being a vintaged angler 😊 And watching forecasts.
Who did you go out with?
It's unbelievable how mid week weather is good and how many weekend blow up. It's not often kind for the charters who rely on the weekend bookings over the short season, those down south have it easy compared to our north east skippers.
