| Fished Gravesend with Jems and EssexD last night last minute decision. Threehours before and two hours after high tide. 4 good codling Essex D taking largest at 6 1/2Lb Jems next with a shade over 3lb and me holding up the rear with about 1 1/2lb. After a dissapointing night at Dungy on Friday this made up for it. It wasn't a big fishing frenzy as only had about a further ten whiting and a pout between us. |

| we fished to the east side of the pub, anywhere between the two peirs or any where up towards the fort. Can be a little snaggy beyond the peirs and further up towards the fort the tide rip can be fierce. |
