    Report on-board Vanishing Point-2

    Had a nice day out yesterday with some good mates... John Rawle, Bob Cox, Nigel Farage and
    Ray Finch UKIP MEP..

    John took the helm and steamed us Eastward roughly 14 miles, and put us right over the fish, we had Thornbacks coming to the boat quite rapidly, and both John and Nigel got a double hook up and landed fish at the same time.. ( Nigel's was bigger) and Ray Finch hit back with a lovey Thornback Ray, not to be out done, (as John has been tacking the Pea out of me lately) I caught the biggest fish of the day..! a nice double figure Ray.. but with Nicola cooking up a storm on the grill, bacon, sausages, burgers, and a bit of clay shooting over the slack water.

    Sadly no Cod yesterday, Bob Cox a true hardened angler, toughed it out with Whiting live baits, and was not deterred... sadly, although one of his live baits got hammered and disappeared, he didn't manage to nab a fish on the live baits... but you have to admire his resolve..

    The flood was very good for fish, loads of Whiting some good ones amongst them..!! and a good 20 odd Thornbacks to 10 lbs, doggies ect.

    The ebb was a bit of a struggle as the wind went more to the East, then the rain started and I think we were losing the will to live...lol

    But as Nigel had to be back in London for various appointment's so we decided to up anchor and head back to Bradwell for 16.30.....

    But Nigel has vowed to return for Codxit to get those Cod out of the water..he he he ..!!!

    Ok.... tight lines every one
