Norfolk Broads cruiser hire - Advice wanted

[birchy]

Dant, that is an absolutely fan-bloody-tastic guide you've written! It's a great help to others as well as myself. Is there somewhere on this forum that his guide can be stickied or at least saved for future reference?

 

We're spoilt for choice now. Oh decisions., decisions.

Here are a few more tips that should help:

 

If hiring a boat check that it can fit under the Potter Heigham bridge on any low tide - if not there is a good chance you could get stuck above it for a few days.

Also hire a rowing boat with two mud anchors - much easier to fish from than a cruiser and you can get to spots a crusier cant.

If after bream take plenty of corn - maggots, casters or worm will catch alot of small silvers or eels.

Take plenty of groundbait and feed a big area as them bream shouls are BIG.

Try not to let anyone else see you feeding an area.

Take plenty of insect repellent.

Dont get off the boat during a full moon

Having spent quite a few hours searching, we've now secured a cruiser named Bittern from http://www.whisperingreeds.net/?page_id=23 (thanks again, dant).

 

I will most likely awaken this thread early September to ask more questions about where we should be heading, how the fishing is going, etc.

 

Thanks to everyone that replied.
