Sea Fishing Angling

Finally managed to break the boat virginity at the weekend! Launched from Gwbert on the rising tide at approx 8:15 am. As it was only the 3rd luanch and the first proper fishing trip we followed a couple of other small boats around the headland. Started off with feathers on one rod and hoki in the o...
