Hi I'm back

[paul.saunders]

Hi all just to let you now that i'm back from my boating holiday in Norfolk. the fishing was not good i'm affraid cold clear and high water levels. roach were almost none existant. Best was on Friday at a place called Hoe Hill where i had a spell of nice Roach and gudgeon an hour before dark( i'd been fishing there for 2 hours without a bite then they switched on) I had some nice bream at the arm of salhouse broad but the best bag came from south walsham broad to waggler tactics at first light but could not get them going on the feeder after dark. my dad managed to land some nice perch though one atleast 2pound kept him happy.

 

one thing that really narked me was seeing people on pleasure craft trolling for pike from the back of their boats. I saw one bloke comeing out of Horning latch into a pike and i swear it was surfing until the woman driving found out how to stop the boat. I dread to think of the damage the fish must of had to its mouth. It clearly states in the hire conditions that fishing from the boat whilst under moter is not permitted and is against the by-laws. I think in hindsight i should of recorded them doing it and reported them but would i of got anywhere? :confused:

 

Thanks for your reply pete via this sight but i had already left but if ok with you can i hang on to your number as i have booked up to go next august for 2 weeks and going to the southern part.

 

all the best

Hi Paul, no the fishing hasn't been to great lately, even for the locals. Re trolling holiday makers, yes, you could have reported them to one of the Broads Authority Inspectors. If you are up this way then phone next time, you'll be welcome!

What i forgot to mention Pete is that i thought that you worked at Lathams as when i asked about Norfolk a few weeks ago i got a message to go there and listen for a Londoner ( trying to find the link) so off i trotted into Lathams and asked for Peter,. this chap said "i'm Peter" so i shook his hand and said how nice it was to meet him and explained i was a member of AN. This chap looked at me as if i was a screw ball and was saying he never heard of AN an he nows nothing about computers. Highly embarressed i payed for my bits never to return. Hope he doesn't remember me next year
