Well done to both of you. Nice to see the kids taking an interest.

We have been fishing the dee abit recently hand have been picking up plenty of coaies, flounders and an odd wrasse. we have found that the fishing has actually improved since the dredging although there seems to be a certain patch that the fish seem to be on!!
