Having fishing work at 3 and the high tide at 21:40, I sped home to get over to Hythe. Having set up a bit further up the beach than my last session, i managed a whiting on my first cast and then things died off. Nearer high tied the rod tips were bending again. I […]

14-1 Saturday Session
I headed down to West Parade in Hythe, parked up and set up at about 4. Things didn’t start well as my first cast broke the 60lb leader due to squashing my crimp to hard. I managed to find my tackle behind me on the beach a little later, so that was good at least. […]
