I love fishing

This is new to me and I am not all that good at the written word. I shall endeavour to share the JOYS of fishing, what I have to put up with as a skipper, and how much HARD work is involved in owning and running a fishing boat, not to mention how much money has to be thrown into the big hole in the water that the boat creates.

Have been out this morning to work my crab pots. Sea had quite a few big holes in it but I carried on. Had phone call from another boat saying it was rough where he was , which was about 2 miles south of me and he was turning for home. Carried on to my first string of pots and whilst hauling them took a couple of waves over the side so I re-baited them, took out the three crabs and two wrasse that they held, re-set them and headed for home. Was a nice comfortable ride back with a following sea. Another day without earning anything.
