fishing :me and the mrs
tide:going out
bait: crab frozen lug and squid
rigs :2 hook flappers
result:22 codling


i started fishing at 5pm and as soon as the lead reached the bottom and set the fish was biting not great sizes smallest 27cm biggest 45cm average 29-30 best bait crab or lug tipped with crab legs we ran out of bait by 8pm good little spot if you just fancy catching fish

that is good fishing,always the way when you have good fishing you run out bait???

maybe i should coach them they need all the help they can get by the sounds of it

If anybody is doubting that Jimmy did better than all the "experts" remember that the conditions would have been much different. They fished in daylight in calm, very cold weather, whereas Jimmy fished there last night in darkness as it got milder with a southerly wind beginning to pick up.

By the way how many of the 22 did the wife get?

hey jimmy
had you any hassle getting in or out of there? it was tough enough getting out after 2 hours of snow, the cars were sliding all over the road up the hill. id hate to have been trying to get out later on after another few hours of snow, not to mention trying to get down the hill to get in.
