Fishing

They're mackerel alright and isn't it interesting to see how fishing attire has not changed much since the 1930s ;)

Oh, how I wish I'd thought of that, Chris.
Or possibly ...……… 'I've got a photo of my Grandad dressed just like that'.

Despite the headwind we had a few fish yesterday and after last nights blow there should be a bit of a sea running this morning.
High water's not till about lunchtime, and the three hours from about halfway up to full tide is when this beach seems to fish best for me. So not much point in an early start!
 
It was a great day despite not being 100% I still had fun and got fish in the fridge.
 
Taken a few mackies, returned bass and garfish, wind has made casting hard work, but he who dares ........... gets wet feet :(

Short answer - the more bearings the better. The more people you talk to the better, cos everyone has their own way of doing things. (y)
Expect a report in the morning please :)

I sent you a couple of emails with links for reels and braid :confused:

That reel was a 4000 (size) with 5 bearings.

I'll pm the links if you didn't get my emails.

Frankly, Annie, I'm somewhat surprised that you have to spend so much time looking at so much tackle. Surely you've seen all you need to see already?
As I've said on many an occassion, your Bill is a very understanding man and you're a very fortunate lady indeed.

Colin ???
