Newboy Posted May 28, 2006 Report Posted May 28, 2006 Now go and suss out all the good fishing places and report to us ..... Quote
overdraft Posted May 28, 2006 Author Report Posted May 28, 2006 well this morning we went to lagoon here in Obidos, wonderful place just like Poole harbour in many ways but no nutters steamimg around at 30 knots!! no jet ski's, all very peacful, but I,ve never seen so many fishermen along such a huge beach, all wading into the huge surf, some were also spinning into the channels of the lagoon, cant wait to have ago when we get back next week, the lagoon is very shallow in some places where people can cockle and in others you could step off of the sand and into about 10 ft of water!!! which is req when it was as hot as today!! will let know of any goings on here whenever theres anything to report, tight lines to you all, Kim Quote
