re a mate of mine

No names but He"s called Col- there are times when we ring each other for an instant fish. did it to him a few years ago.Got a runner from work, shot down to Temples for the bait, grabbed all the gear for the boat, gave him a buzz, "At the Boat House, weather spot on, tide great for launching, see you in 20 mins, magic he says on me way,, canny session a few cod, a macky or two, sun shining. great early evening chuck, landed the boat, cleaned it up,washed down the engine, shot off to the Kittywake for afew beers,Gets back to Colins flat-- front door missing smoke all over the place, a Fire Engine parked outside ,It didnt take long to put 2&2 together, he had started to cook his tea, forgot all about it, and went fishing for about 5 hours .I think the sausages were cooked but only just,.He wasnt a happy chappy,he still gets ribbed for it,

Been there, done it & got the Tshirt, or forgotten it as in that case, Once in a hurry to get to a mark,a good mile walk from the car, got all the gear out decided to put my waders on trudged to the spot sweating like a pig,, left the rod in the boot of the car, had my rod rest , was well Pd off. 3 miles in waders,I dont reccomend it

Haha! Remember your peg number, Mick Dunn will tell you I yomped right past him at Aldeburgh last year convinced my number was by the guy with the black beach buddy only to find he wasn't in the match. Neoprene waders, sinking into shingle, loaded up with rods, buddy etc and the sun shining I collapsed for five when I made it back

dont forget your lights when fishing at night and try not to forget your baits...have arrived on occasions all set up then boo hoo nee bait or evn setting up in daylight and darkness falls realising your headlamp was in the other box .....

[SnaggedUpLad]

Don't forget to pick your bait up and have to get out the tunnel, pay only to turn round and pay again.... sorry again sigsy. Classic realisation of the mistake though "So what bait did you bring?", "awww @#$%!!!!"

dont stand on the end of blyth pier and take a jimmy!! especially when its windy

and always put a roll of bog paper in your box,theres nowt worse than trying to use leafs off a tree

Following on from the P1ssin into the wind thing handwarmer down your pods stops you from needin a p1ss every 5 mins on very cold nights!

[SnaggedUpLad]

If your fishing with yellows and your hands are too cold or wet to get a good grip, roll them in the sand a little.... grippy (obviously only works on a beach)

Get a couple bait needles, spot on for baiting up worm
