Polite Notice

This is a sea angling forum for the debate of all angling related topics, including: shore fishing, boat and kayak fishing. Here you will find pictures of anglers going sea fishing and catching fish. You will find angling related debate. Sometimes anglers will retain fish for the table. Whilst we respect the personnal choice of anglers to follow catch and release practices, this is not a conservation forum and devout conservationists unable to accept anglers sensibly retaining fish should seek out alternative forums. Anyone preaching catch and release or criticising other peoples reports will have their posts removed.

I felt safe in the Fog
I was only 1/4 mile off in 40 feet of water under the cliffs. I dont think theres much chance of getting hit by a Ship under there?
I know it is a bit risky a smaller vessel could come over the top of us But Crossing a road has risks involved Is it really so reckless I dont believe it is?
