Dunno how to contact them, but I've seen a couple of guys who launch from Shore Road, Hythe, in expensive inflatable kayaks at high water. Park on the gravel, inflate, lug across the road and straight in to the 'oggin. Brightly-coloured, if you see them on the water nip round to the car park and leave a note on their van window or wait for them to come in again.
One I chatted to used two 7' rods in holders, had a fish finder and all the safety gear, said it had revolutionised his angling from beachcasting but the weather had to be 'just so'. |
