    Well done mate, looks like you had a good session and a couple of nice bass there.   

    I'm going tomorrow night.                         The smoothes have arrived in the Northwest along with the bass and Thorneys. Plus all the flatfish and doggys, So I'm hoping for a good session. 

    I went to Rossal Beach Blackpool tonight and caught 1 Bass, a baby Thornback Ray, a plaice and a doggy. A most enjoyable evening spent by the sea I loved it.

    If only I got a bad back from fishing it's usually something pathetic.

    Picking up a hair brush off the TV stand (irony alert )

    Bending slightly or maybe a little stretch at the wrong time.

    It wouldn't be so bad of it was action man injuries lol 

     

     

    My back has gone several times over the last few years and think the worst was when I was brushing my teeth, I bent over to spit in the sink and my back locked and I couldn't move for quite a few minutes and when I could eventually move it was the most worst pain ever.

    Did you have any luck? Last two trips have been utterly biteless down here 

    No mate it was a blank for me, I did stick with big lug and squid baits on pully rigs  because there's still the odd cod coming out. A couple of mates were out with me they were on small baits and hooks and managed a dab and and a couple whiting between them. It was unbelievably cold but it great too be out. Can't wait for this Wednesday night, we are out again, Wednesday nights are becoming a regular thing I'm loving it.

    Best thing for children I reckon, fresh air, countryside… iPads have a lot to answer for! 

    Totally agree mate I was never in the house when I was a kid. I have two teenagers and they spent most of their spare time in their rooms.

    My first proper session since starting back sea fishing, wasn't a good start I could only get frozen bait and the tide was racing through, so struggled to hold bottom but i managed 1 whiting and it was great to be back on the beach.

    Im guessing you mean tackle/set up so hope you get sorted out soon mate.

    Yes mate tackle and some terminal bits for my rigs, I'm still waiting too get my rod back after having  eye replaced . The wife has bought me a new Ian gold tripod for Christmas. I'll just be using the 1 rod set up for the time being until I can get myself another rod and reel. I'm trying to sell my bedchair and brolly system at the moment that should buy for a rod and my birthday in February so hopefully a new reel for that.

    I'm 90mins drive from my nearest beach, that can be from Brighton in West Sussex through to Southbourne in  east dorset. Luckily i have 3 very good and renowned Tope  beaches inbetween Brighton and East Dorset so I know where I'll be heading. Already got the first 2 weeks of May booked off. One week on Chesil beach for the plaice and hounds and the second week in West Sussex after tope. Can't wait. 

    Sounds good mate, I wish I lived closer I'd come and join for a session or two. I'm itching to get out on the beaches, I just need too get a few more things sorted and I'll be there, I can't wait I've not felt like this for a very long time about any fishing. 😁👍

    I’ve not done as much off the beaches recently mate, the summer was so flat and still, I couldn’t get the conditions that suited me. Now I’ve got a 3wk old at home, the rods are hung up, (except the odd trip out after pike!) the rods are Leeda Icon elite match rods, 13ft 6in to a pair of Diawa 7ht multis. The East Sussex coast is paved with whiting this time of year, after the new year I’ll probably start venturing out again, but when I plan a beach session, it’s usually 2 sessions in practice, one session to dig fresh bait (never fun this time of year) then the second session to actually fish! 

    Congratulations for the baby mate, I'm made up for you and your family. Nice rod and reel set up mate. I don't have the time to collect my own bait, I which I had but I'm afraid I buy mine but saying that it is freshly dug everyday so really good quality. Good luck with the little one mate and all your future fishing what ever it may be.😁👍
