Fished the oj, had about 4hrs out there. wind was blowing an absolute hooley. Just myself and a pal. Well worth it though, had a 3lb codling an hour before the top of the tide, then quiet for an hour. Top tide and pulled in a small whiting, then next cast and straight into another 3lber. Was really hard to concentrate on rod tips as eyes were streaming with the wind. Couple of knocks after that but didn't connect. Packed up around 6.30pm. Just had me dinner and got to say you can't beat the satisfying feeling or taste of putting your own catch on the plate!!!! |

I have actually worn that pinnie while cooking a BBQ with friends and family, I don't care. 
People take me as I come,
Life is too short to take too serious
In work I am actually suited and booted everyday.  |
