go for one of the RT ones, only €70 and money well spent IMO.
not sure how good they would be in clonea with the tide dropping faster than a whores knickers

i got a blue RT one for the comp Saturday (thanks to JP for helping me put it up). Money well spent, it was quite pleasant sitting in there during a squall listening to the radio or chatting

Hi John,
can't believe nobody asked already, what colour is your tackle box? That should make your colour choice a little easier.
Blue n White is the new Black!!!

ah c'mon now guys - if i don't do that I'll have to wear a kilt out to the comps, and on a blustery day like Saturday, it's not going to be pretty

is there any point in waiting for the kennel club show before buying one of theese

2009 would like to hit 20 this year
there's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.
