  • Finally got one out !!

    After months of trying to get back up to speed after many years of not fishing I finally got a decent one out today from Hendon Prom. I have been getting my share of fish but all small stuff but went out today only expecting whiting with the calm conditions and managed a nice Coddy of 2lb 3oz. Got two tommy codling and a Dab too but the nice 2lber was the icing on the cake. First proper Coddy of the season for me ;-) Now I need to catch up with Rocker
