Catch up time



I went fishing to New Passage near the Severn Bridge at


13.00. Boy that was cold!!!!


Air temperature was -1.5 and the wind was 6 to 15 miles an hour.


With mist at first then fog down to less than 50 metres. This turned into freezing fog.


The rocks were frozen and very slippery, the line was freezing


to the rings and on the reels so an early return home.


Colourful visitor to Filton was


Citation 650 PH-MEX.


Two photos (below) are of a couple of Net Jets biz jets.


Top one is BAe 125 CS-DNU on 15-12-07


Bottom one is Be 40 CS-DMO on 19-12-07

Up at 04.00, out the house by 05.00,

Finished fishing 15.00, home for 16.15.
£16.00 worth of bait, Squid, Rag worm and Lugworm
and what did I catch?
1x Rockling, 4x Whiting and 2x Codling.
All the size of fish fingers!!??
Top fish is a whiting, Middle is a Rockling and Bottom is a Codling.
All went back alive.
But I enjoyed the day as it was lovely and warm, only light drizzle
now and again and did not need to use my coat.
