there is a beach next to that mark which has turbot on it.. quite few beaches near this area hold flatties..

the next SAISAC comp will be located on such a beach :wink:

Well done lads, nice reward for going out, fair play to yes :wink: . Looks wild out the :) west. I think i'd be smiling like Nige if I caught one Stevecrow :roll: . Is that the fjiord :? , i was on a cruise there a few yrs ago.

long time since you put a report up mate, nice to see the rays about, and if i am not wrong did nige catch a bigger fish than you, so he beat you again :lol:

:) i was getting bored waiting on steve to catch a fish and yes mine was bigger :D would have liked to have caught a few more but still happy with the one. thats my sea fishing over for 3 months so steve is now looking for a new fishing partner and he would prefer someone who doesnt catch many fish or fish bigger than his :twisted:

and one that can keep all 4 wheels going in one direction together (see scomber)
