Had my first fishing session in the kayak done plenty of paddling and self rescues but this was the maiden voyage in search of fish !
After parking up by Longhoughton beach it was time to set up
We headed out slowly and venturing further out bit by bit weather was ok but still a bit of a roll on. We got out to around the mile mark and used the crab pot markers to keep us right.
We were into fish once got to the mile mark 7 macky 4 pollock around the pound mark and a codling around a pound as well. Think if we had got to this mark earlier we would have had more. We caught them in the last hour but enjoyed the paddle about and we took it easy the first time fishing. Me mate was out in his to so safety in numbers. Including the seal that a bit un nerving when your so close to the water.
Had a good day and don't regret selling the boat up to now. Much easier to get out especialy on my own and cheaper.
