r.i.p. two lads who fished the comp came over from the west coast and found the body as the tide pushed them back to the high water mark, they said it is a day they will not forget in a hurry .

R.I.P

It has put me off fishing alone on rocks which i done quite often. A simple slip is all it takes or even a heart attack.
