just what the Doctor ordered

[pingu]

again with massive thanks to rich

last night we were undecided where to go again as the south beaches were being hammered by the wind again

so we decided up the estuary

the idea was Lympstone looking for Flounder, and either at the slip on the bend ( oops no access sign now erected so that was out)
next idea pub beer garden as seats as well
but had a wee look at the harbour and theres a lovely concrete wall arround it , so we fished the end of that
set up as church rang 8pm

simple 2 hook rigs and worm

first blood was mine with a rig ruining eel
the we both had schoolies

then more eels( all of which were renamed pike bait)
unfortunately the flounder didnt show( probably because schoolies were beating them too the bait)

left at 10.30 and had a couple of really nice pints of the local otter ale in the swan beside the harbour

ended up a great night in the end, my walking is starting to get better, and i can stand long enough to cast as well now( no power casting {not that i can}though),
good company as ever, a few fish and a chill
just what the doctor ordered

fishing over the next couple of weeks is very mucked up with half term( already ) and 1 half of team speckled moveing house ( must mean a housewarming though )

cheers rich again, and i should be driveing fine for next wed

Good to hear your able to wet a line again. I remmber breaking bones in my foot, was ages before I could do much.
I might get down to the coast next week, I hope....most of my intended trips get cancelled due to the horrible thing called work

A new spot which is always useful to know.

A dry, calm, warmish evening. (Which was no small miracle if you'd seen the met office forecast the previous day!)

A few fish, which although small (Okay, very small) are always welcome.

An absolutely cracking pint of Otter Amber. (Close even to the fabled Speckled Hen )

And to top it all, a new experimental fishing photo pose. I like to call this one: Pretentious!
