Too early start...

I had a bright idea to start the day at 04:00 for a seriously early fish. Somehow mustered 6 friends: John Tarrant, James Tarrant, John Woodgate, James Brown, Andy Avery, David Austin so in the dark we arrived at Baiter in the pouring rain. Sadly baiter doesn't open till 6am !!!

So we launched at "Slipway" (aptly named road!!) next to the RNLI building. It was a rough old morning with limited visibility in the water, so feathers were not very succesful. James Tarrant landed the first fish, I kindly removed the hook, attempt the kill - but the fish made a last leap at the water. That was that last we saw of that one!!

Lesson for the day, don't start so early... stay in bed.
