Not wishing to try and out do mangerphishs report, well done to him, re the marina last night, you'll see from my catch report that I'm not, but hear goes.
1x Large crab
1x Nice size Bream, caught by my son (at last). We were pestered by weed and crabs nipping hook lengths, haven't had to rerig so many times before, I'm sure we were using the wrong gear, but hey.
We were greeted by some large waves and we got wet, Will loved that, fished a long time 5pm-2.30am.
Managed to get some weed out of the sea for everyone else at least!
Never been to the Marina, at least to fish, before and tried to maintain the correct manners that I believe in and I try to install into my son.
At approx 1am some oriental gentlemen turned up, set up, and disappeared. Several minutes later they were popping back to see their one colleague my side and bringing fish back, I enquired as to what they were catching and they said Pout, well I'm still a bit of a numpty as far as fishing goes and unless they were treading on them, they were flatties of which I'm sure were undersized, but they were definitely being caught from the harbour side.
After my enquiry it became a very cloak and dagger affair.
any way a lovely night and the mini monster is shattered this morning but wants to go back!
Also thanks to Vic Fisher who reminded me to check waterproofs, via another thread yesterday, as my leggings were in another bag:whistling.
