Not a good sea today

[Norman]

Sympathy to those that were going out today (Sunday 1st june) rather than yesterday . weather looks real bad. Looking at forcast earlier in the week we were going to use Sunday as a fall back as it looked just fine ........... boy how things can change.

Just had a look at the webcam ....................

Yer its shocking, how dirty is the water Norman and how far out did it take to clear up?

I am in a boat comp next Sunday so hope it improves, not been boat fishing for a week now

 

[Norman]

Yeah rich , was rather chocolate color till about 2 mile, hence we headed north to newbiggin where there was less river pollution .......

Hope you get out ok

Yer defo season of 1997 and 2004 so far this year, at least you made it out Sat.

p.s dont suppose you know the lad that owns that Arvor 18 at the R.Q do you? only 1 of them in mariner.

Always best to speak to someone that drives/owns something rather than take the word of the reviews in mags and the net etc.
