Bloke I used to work with always swore by a March Hovis - a March brown with a bit of bread on it!:D

I prefer zips, button ones are a pain.

Trouble is if they relent on fishing the the golfers will want the same then the next group and so on, end of lockdown , virus out of control.

Had a few hours with some other members from the club at a secret mark on the Essex Coast on Thursday. only had one bite myself and that turned out to be today's dinner a nice 45cm bass. apart from that there was just whiting and dabs.

Why were you casting with a crane. wouldn't a rod be better? Welcome mate. ?

I would worry that the process of heating it to shrink it would weaken the line.

You will go blind! it's all old gentlemen:sick::sick::sick:

St Osyth park at the end of the road by the Sailor Boy pub and walk to the left and fish among the groynes. Clacton there are a lot of places including the pier, parking can be iffy though in some places you can park for free on the cliff top. Holland, again there are a number of spots and most...

That is debatable, I would say that calmer weather after the big blow is better as the fish prefer not to be smashed to pieces in the rough surf at the waters edge and retreat to a safe distance until it is calmer.

Felixstowe is very good, but it depends on where you fish, the viewpoint is always quite productive and easy to fish, Manor End is another handy mark. Landgard can be awkward at times and if it is windy quite difficult to fish, Have you tried the Tendering area yet, St Osyth, Clacton, Holland...

Now that's very handy.

Has the new boat still got gold bath taps????

Your not the only one I chickened out as well, it looked very nasty on the Felixstowe webcam and Holland was even more exposed to that wind.
