[Fishing on Fathers Days]

It must have been good,my son has just gone back down the boat with a friend to have another go,are all fisherman mad?

[Fishing on Fathers Days]

Went fishing today with my son on the boat,we had a very good day (once we found a spot away from the wind),several decent roach apiece all good quality between 4-8oz,I had a couple of bonus perch one over 2lb the other about 1lb.

We fished a spot on the Bure,out of Ranworth turn right and about 500 yards on the left,we tucked in the bank near some lily pads,we had a good few hours catching.

Did anyone see us there? several boats about today.

I suppose all you gear is cleaned up and ready to go,I shall be out tonight with my son at Midnight,what a mad world we all live in,and he is at work tomorrow,alright for me though work is a distant memory.

I bet all the tackle shops are rubbing their hands in anticipation

[New tackle shops]

Thanks for the info Mark,I will give the one at Brundall a look,it will save me fighting through the traffic to get to Angling Direct on Aylsham Road,it will be interesting to find out who owns them.

[Days to go before the Fishing Season Starts]

I will settle for another couple of these

Sorry for the poor quality.... scanned from slides.

Now this is a fish

[SeaFishing]

Johnny they are all trying to wind you up!

I was given a top class tip from an old salty sea dog,before you go out to sea,eat 3 spoonfuls of strawberry jam,do it work I hear you say,don't know but if you are sick,it will taste a lot better!!

[SeaFishing]

Enjoy the fishing Johnny,hope you catch plenty of fish for your tea.

[One for the Pot?]

hi,

up to about 3 years ago ,used to sea fish quiete a lot along north norfolk coast,mainly the catch was flat fish,with bass and dog fish,and the ocassional codlin g in winter,my all time favorite catch was a 12ib bass caught on Cromer pier,it was some fight from that height,and we landed it in a drop net,

From the boat i have caught sea trout......and i am not going to tell you the mark!!

I was at Loddon staithe in September 2008,fishing off the boat with a friend,he caught a Sea Trout of about 3lb whilst fishing for Roach,that was a nice surprise.

Where did you say that Sea mark was?

[Bream Fishing On the Yare]

Mark

If you drive through Strumpshaw,take right turn towards tip then right again to bird sanctuary,carry on to Railway crossing,(station full of gnomes),carry on untill you come to end of road,right down unmade road and stop when you get to the river,Thats Buckenham,there used to be a ferry there years ago,so I have been told

[Bream Fishing On the Yare]

200 yards up river from the Beauchamp Arms

[Bream Fishing On the Yare]

Could it be Buckenham?

[One for the Pot?]

That would be a book that i would love to add to my shelf, both Bill and I are very keen wildlife enthusiasts, both land and sea based, and we once owned a living reef tank which was built into the wall of our previous home, separating the lounge from the dining room, and we learned so much from owning that about marine life, and the requirements of living in our oceans

I will keep that number safe David, and add it to my Christmas pressie wish list, i already own a couple of books on the subject, but more based on fishkeeping and angling than a comprehensive encyclopaedia of the oceans wildlife

We did manage to spot flying fish and pipe fish in the wild, when we last went out saling on on a Catamaran around the tropical islands around Antigua, and a few different species of Whales and dolphins around Madeira and in the bay of Biscay on our return, but more locally, we have seen Basking sharks and Sunfish just off the coast around Padstow whist we were out doing a Rick Stien trip, but one fish i would love to see for real is a pike, which sadly the only one we ever spotted was a small dead one floating in a local canal, which was quite decomposed

Heres the link Julz,look in top left hand corner for Amazon
