Heading out into the channel tomorrow for a fishing trip. Will take my video camera and will do my best to film the day. Should be a video ready by monday night for you to all look at.

great work I do love a bit of fishing!

excellent - down load it into the video section - Sue ADMIN

Keen to see your video!
I am looking forward to the river fishing season that kicks off on June 16th my boat is being readied to hunt the Thames - perhaps I will male a video too!!

River fishing from a boat! Is there an advantage over fishing from the bank, apart from having a nice day afloat? Sorry if that's a daft question I've never heard of it in the UK before

Hi Colin
The River Thames has many off shoots, islands, cuts and dead ends with weirs. It is also one of the most controlled rivers in that many banks are off limits or owned by companies, clubs, syndicates, private homes and even the Queen near me in Windsor. The boat allows me to get to all these spots and fish without issues.
I also like to go out and drop bait in appropriate spots in the days leading upto my fishing trips - I tell the wife this is imperative to successful fishing and thus it gives me a good excuse to take the boat out for a spin after work in the evenings.

Cheers Froadie, it makes perfect sense, living by the sea we get used to most places being accessible I never thought of it like that

Was a bit busy this week but found time today to upload footage from last sunday's trip out
