Hi Tom, a few of us in Essex, I'm in Braintree, there a couple more lads in Canvey, one lad in Chelmsford and a couple more in Clacton. Were all on the Anglers Afloat site too.

I haven't tried the crouch yet although I want to have a go at the mullet over at North Fambridge as you can get close to the mooring without being chucked off

HJLT is just thinking about setting up, he lives close to Fambridge and already uses a yak to access some marks.

What are you hoping to get yakwise ?
