Lovely weather

Saturday 27-09-08

Went fishing at New Passage again.

The weather had been very foggy all morning and did

not start to clear untilafter lunch.

Not a very good fishing trip with only 2 snotty Eels caught.
This is a big no no on these big tides!!!!!
Two fishermen can be seen in the mid distance, the ground is
sand / shingle.
With the tide coming in at very fast they ended up having to run
back and forward to collect their kit.
Very dangerous. This area was covered by the tide in under 5 minutes.


The view though was brilliant with the fog coming and going.

The old Severn Bridge can be seen sticking up above the fog.

SUN DOWN

The sun going down behind the New Severn Bridge.

By the time I left New Pasage at 19.30

the fog was coming back very quickly.
