Thanks. Was brought up on the river great ouse, dad's boat cockling and shrimping butt dragging. So love my sea fishing, got a sixteen ft Alaska go out of brancaster. I do like fresh water fishing mainly rivers and drains, lakes are 5mins away, easy to go for a session.

As fishing hobbit has said around 5 mins depending on what the stock of fish is, if there are alot of small silvers in the venue then they will wipe your bait out very quickly leaving your larger hook bait sat on its own so regular casting would be wise in that situation to keep the swim built up with bait.
