Nice change of venue from the usual haunting grounds of hythe & deal but as Dover Shark mentioned there was more tings than you could shake a big stick at :hammer:

Still, nice to have a couple of keepers and in my book it made the trip down from London worthwhile :victory:

 

Welcome to the joys of denge mate, the road is a tad bumpy, specially if you did it in the dark. You seemed to enjoy yourself though, and a few decent Whiting are better than nothing. Denge can 'switch on' the same as anywhere and is a nice venue, dont be put off by the odd bump in the road. Well done.:thumbs::laugh:

 

I'd love to fish Denge , that road is something else!

Maybe they should set up some kind of shuttle service in their 4x4 from the coastgaurd tower, maybe £2 each way?

 

That road is NASTY.

We went down there in a Mondeo last year and got to just underneath the pylons then weren't looking where we were going and drove right into some shingle... couldn't get it out... had to call out a flatbed to come and winch us out... bent part of the suspension getting the car out... afternoon of fishing cancelled :sad2::sad2::sad2:

So yeah unless you've got a 4x4 and you know the road well, don't even bother!!!

Galloways road is slightly better but only accessible when they're not using the ranges

 

i used to find it hard going and i drive a tractor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:laugh:

 

Nice report.

As for the road, just drive slowly!!

Used to take a fiesta down there with no real problems.

You want to have a look at the end of coast drive where it runs behind the golf course, now that is bumpy!!

 

A very enjoyable session

Turning into RobinHood Lane was like tarmac got a lil bumpy past the industrial units, then ya hit the old school military style concrete road... bit more bumpy :laugh:

Then it was...

Is that large pond in the middle of road ? nope just ya average size pot hole for dengie :crazy: it was a real leap of faith driving through some of those pond/lake creators... not knowing any real depth !!!

Good experience i'll do it again soon :thumbs:

Also good to have decent sized ting on the plate, my fillting/skinning skills have improved which i have learnt on doggies, thats coz i keep on messing up my doggie skin removal techinque :victory:

 

hello dover shark where at denge did you fish. me and a mate fished denge last night. we were to the right of the car park (as you look to the sea) infront of the decaying containers. no cod for us either.

 

Well you could park at the power station and walk!! Its not that far to the diamond.

But Id rather just take the road slowly

Me and DS turned up about 7 and headed left from the car park, probably about 150 yards or so. I don't spose that was you with the generator setup, literally setup just right to the right of the car park?

Argh might explain generator chuggin away in so called parking area halogen lamps on beach with wind breakers set up couple of beach buddies dotted about more rods than ya can shake a stick at !

Ye if that was you Lukey, squids & myself where most jealous... we only had 200 candle power northstar 'n' dodgey batterys in the our head lamps slowly fading away :laugh: we was a clear 200 meter past the watch tower pushing towards the diamond about half way in between.

 

taking me campervan down there soon,:hammer: pots and pans crashing around.:hammer: na think i`d stick to the boats

 

Good read :victory: back in the day my 78' M2 Escort RS2000 did'nt much care for the mahoosive speed humps down Sandwich let alone the muddy car park at Chequers before the resivior was built !! :laugh: get a Jeep 1mpg on a good day but will get you anywhere :showoff:

 

Or better still, get to know someone with a jeep :laugh:

78' M2 Escort RS2000

proper car unlike the crap we have to drive these days.

 

Sounds like you had one big adventure???:bounce::bounce::bounce:

 

real bad road that is i have a lowered vectra 18" alloys and i get down there no problem i think its down to the driver not the car

 

i've used worse roads that that,especially for when i go crabbing.
