WALCOTT

HE WAS A TENNIS PLAYER..HE ONE MANY A GAME...GOOD STRONG NECK MUSCLES....MUST HAVE BY NOW,,AS THEY SAY LOVE ALL

LOVELY PHOTOS CARL...ITS NICE TO SEE...HOW ARE YOU ALL DOING...GOT MY FIRST BOAT TRIP FOR 2YRS ON 18TH OF SEPT FROM SOUTHWOLD...JUST BEEN TOO BUSY WITH THE PHESANT AND PATRIDGES

Lovely beaches to fish.. GT Yarmouth North Fish on the incoming tide...lots of snags HORSEY..Good SEA PALLING..Nice with the stones CART GAP..One of my best places easy to get to and fish WALCOTT/BACTON/TRIMINGHAM THEN UP TO CROMER ARE ALL GOOD FISHING UP THE TIDE...then you go around the coast and find even more nice places.

No he did not..but would you in his place..he's a boat to run John??

Lovely fish...yes Paul Dyble is just down the road from me and he as like he say's been fishing for years...they have a very good fish shop at scrabty/caster..good on him to catch...do nice bait as well...fish are all ways nice and fresh...and they do charter trips..think the fish may be a long line fish but dont take this as read..this time of year is for the cod on long line.

well done Ivan..he will be missed,but life as to go on as they say..I was gutted when I heard of his death..I was only talking to him a few days before..cheers Graham

They have a COD in the BERGEN Sea Centre and they reckon it weighs a 100lbs..got photos and it doe's look so but it as no deep colour too it or marking as a nice fresh fish you see from the North sea...them cod from the fords in Norway are all different colours..think its where you are..some are Yellow,brown,orange/red,black,but they are all healthy fish

THINK IT'S IN A SEA LIFE CENTER

Yes you are right in what you say as to the skipper being god on the scales and size of fish etc,but when I got mine we had all the crap from certain people as to whether it was weighed right,the scales was wrong,so thats why I said you need scales etc that the asso use's,I hope to fish the festivals this year at Whitby on Achattes as I have been told Brennan will be back and he's got that boat now,,also do any of you want some manns shads in packets for a £1,plus P&P,can't wait till I catch another big one and have the same crap.

Also I would say now thinking about it,Wildcard,MIKE and Etc if you do join the Whitby Fishing Mafia get some good weighing scales as I was on a boat and caught a large Cod and they ran it down as to the scales we used and people weighing..we was wrong...thats crap. I had 12 good anglers with me and 3 good crew..so ask before you join if they give you a set of weighing scales.I caught a nice fish and the rest talked it down...very small minded was a few.

Hi to you all on the topic and Ivan,Wildcard,Mike,JM,Barry..I find it hard to see why the Whitby Asso can't get you in (re a member of the boat asso) so you can fish with customers in the festival Wildcard..I thought more the better as odds go down.I would have thought that more boats/people in the Asso counts for more votes and say when it always comes back to the poor old RSA angler..perhaps I am wrong but I have been to Whitby enough times fishing and as a tripper and caught some of the biggest..more members the better....so all I can say now is good luck..don't know what the answer is..Graham

Hi Wildcard and Mike,Challenge I know..lovely looking boat Mike,think that will do the job OK..I am waiting for John Brennan and his old tug to get going its more my speed.Challenge I spoke the other day with him and he was saying you and me with Ivan filming hes got another Wallace and Grommit movie coming along..I was going to say to JB he could sponsor Andrew and myself in the Whitby festival...but reading about Wildcard/Mike I think we will have to wait aswell...reckons hes off to see Paddy W in Aus before he comes back..but he as no body to look after the EMU.anyway back to fishing Wildcard/Mike if you can tell me trip lenghts and prices,I will look forward to coming and enjoy a good day out..hope it all go's well for you all..Graham

I have a large amount of fishing tackle to sell..any offer which is reasonable will be taken..I live in Walcott,Norwich.please email me on...grahamdaniels@tiscali.co.uk

I think you are right in what you say Ivan,but all the trips we have had together etc they are certain times of year in which the worms are there and then on another trip no worms in the fish,,,,so is there a time of year why these worms attack the fish???..like you say I have had nice herring to put in vinegar and some have and most have'nt got worms...some fish are full of them,just worth chucking in the bin and you pick the other one up it's a lovely free of worms fish???why..perhaps someone as an answer to this but it's been like it since I started fishing in 1965..when we are shooting and see the birds after.. some of them have good crops of food and others with nothing in there crop...but they all live in the same place...so is it something to do with diet for the fish...re food etc ..I don't know...when fishing out of southwold I find less fish with worms than whitby trips...but like I say is it the time of year.

Hope you lot got over xmas ok...Carl and his team...and Ivan it's nice to know your about...but i must say that using single pirk with one hook will win you a bigger fish..you know that with what I have had the biggest for for 2 years so far..HAPPY NEW YEAR TO U ALL..HAVE YOU HEARD FROM JB,HE'S BACK IN TOWN...Rods Blazing as they say in the new year...CHEERS TO ALL AND HAPPY NEW YEAR...THE CODMASTER

WELL A 94HR TRIP....IT'S GOT TO BE 60 EACH..BUT YOU CAN ALWAYS TAKE HOOKS OFF AND USE AS WEIGHT WITH HOOKIAS/SHADS ETC ON A TRACE..GOOD LUCK...NEVER DONE IT BEFORE..SORRY I HAVE HAVE..IF YOU NEED PIRKS WITH STRINGS AND HOOKIAS GIVE ME A BELL...YOU HAVE ALOT OF FISHING TIME TO FILL,AND IT WILL BE GOOD ON A TRIP THAT LENGHT..SO EMAIL IF YOU WANT ANYMORE INFO

Excellent report and glad you and the boys had a go do Carl,it's nice to see you can find a window to have a 94hr trip in the later half of the year.Might meet up next season if we get the shoots sorted out early and the birds delivered...cheers Graham

LOOKS GOOD CARL...nice trip,I see Dave,Rob and Lol look ok...please say hello to them....can't wait for a trip later if all's ok..had 300 poults stolen last nite or some time over the weekend...anyway the police are on the case..when are you going again...cheers to all..Graham

Just spoke to Alan Redmond and he's up for a later trip..end of Aug/Sept as thats the time when we had nice fish..the other Graham is waiting for the all clear on his mum..mine mums ok now it's just the Pheasants ..but by then all should have gone to good shooting homes,yes I would love to meet with Carlos..love 20,Andrew,Charlie.the codfather and not missing out my main man the Gaffer(JM)

I would agree with Charlie,single pirk for the big ones...a 4" twintail on each string hook will get them...or I used just a pirk with a single hook with a nice twintail on, and it worked with the teachings on the and from the master MR CHALLENGE....John M was a wizard at how the fish was coming on board ..and while people with hookias on were untangling you could get a next drop for the biguns and it worked for me on a number of times...just rang my mate the other Graham and he's up for a trip later once his mothers ok etc..I will book something later but should have been in tenerife for 16 days but only there for 3 as her indoors dad died,what an **** to come back ,ended up in Gatwick not Norwich..so as last post it's back to Pheasants etc..so wish your trip Carl good kuck
