    Uneasiness

    Once felt uneasy while fishing in the fog off Herne bay with my young son. The water was totally still when, out of nowhere, appeared a flotilla of pink condoms, all with their necks wrung. I upped anchor and moved on hurriedly for about quarter mile and started fishing again. They appeared...

    South Coast A night to remember...

    I've never caught a squid and don't expect to catch one now. But you may be interested in one I bought, fresh, from the fishmonger a couple years ago. It felt oddly solid, and when I cut it open there was a fish inside it almost as big as itself. In fact the dead fish was wearing the squid like...

    So wots your biggest bass sorry minstrel ?

    Not caught a decent one since the mid 80s fishing a few miles out at Pan Sands. Caught it on an irritable great ragworm. That ragworm must have given the fish some grief because it hardly put up a fight at all and weighed in at ten and a half pounds. I seem to remember a Chinaman on the slipway...

    South West SOME LIKE IT HOT...

    Only just found this thread. Great report Tow-rag. I used to enjoy writing long reports when I was fit enough to fish. I only talk about cabbages and kings on HIGQ now but still enjoy it.?

    Why do you fish?

    Eel done the Japanese way is fantastic. Skinned and cut into 2" lengths. Marinated overnight in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, and a drop of sherry. Grilled, while being basted with the marinade mixture... Food of the gods.?

    Why do you fish?

    I eat the first couple of fish I ever caught, a couple of perch about 1/2 lb. I even eat roach. Pike were very nice but gudgeon fried in butter were my favorite. Drew the line at bream, and tench were absolutely foul. I never had access to game fish. My grandparents were Dutch, so had some...

    Why do you fish?

    Natural hunter-gatherer instinct. I used to eat many of the fresh water fish I caught back in the forties and fifties. ?

    South East A week of sharks!

    Great effort Stormtrooper. They are plenty out there hiding in the weed it seems, but a certain level of skill is needed to winkle them out. Wish I had it, and the energy.?
