Wherever I go, be it shore or uptiding on the boat I bring my trusty pulley rigs, they even came to Portugal earlier this month and helped me winkle out a few at distance when the going was tough.

rod, reel, line, bait, few essentials, nicotine, nice wimmin, a few swallies from the auld craitor, bit of sunshine too, yeah, basically everything what makes life worth living. No worries when to come back home and no mobile phones, god forbid! Life can be good!

My Jeep...... Having a shelter on a wet and windy beach is great and all that, but having a mobile shelter that you can drive onto, and more importantly, drive off the beach, with the added bonus of a heater, music and electricity for making a brew, is, quite possibly, the best bit of 'kit' ive ever bought.....
