FISHING FOR SUMMER COD.
Just because the cold days and rough sea’s of winter are now a distant memory doesn’t mean that we have to put our Cod fishing gear to the back of the shed and wait until the next winter for some cod action.

Well seeing the wife has gone to my daughters in Birmingham for the weekend I made the most of it and launched again today at North Landing. Got there for 8.30am, it was a nice sunny morning but with a cool breeze coming off the land. On inspection the sea looked good and usually in [...]
