Hi all. New in yesterday! I plan to do some fishin' off the coast this year. What I need is info on good slipways near good marks. (Don't we all?).

I have a Shetland 535 and a 35hp 'rude. Because I live about as far from the coast as you can get, every trip will be an expedition.

Regards, The Laird.

Manor farm can be expensive.
I remember when I was A LOT younger the Ouse at the mill Blunham was so good. It was because it was a fertiliser mill and the fish loved it.
The fishing at the mill was owned by the mill. It was who you knew that got you in there.
