East Anglia Back on the sand

[Chrisbl]

Been a very long time due to illness and pandemics etc but finally managed to get out yesterday. Had woken up with the urge to go so slung gear in the van, can’t beat a last minute decision. Left work, walked down the road to pick up some bait and 15 minutes later I’m on the beach surveying a sea that was best described as smooth as a mill pond. Beach was relatively quiet , always a result and was soon joined by a mate who turned up out of a matter of curiosity. Fished the tide up for a couple of hours for a couple of bass, beautiful weather and washed the dust down with a cold can of cider, lovely.

Always the best sort of sessions Chris, when it's a last minute decision, and often produces the best results!

Looks lovely there mate, and a nice bass too!
