All good stuff Chris, you might not be catching loads but you're getting plenty of experience on the yak and added watercraft :clap:

it'll stand you in good stead when the smoothounds arrive, trust me you won't believe the scrap they put up! :box:

Well done on the plaice and cheers for the report :gp:

Good to read about your rowing race and how you came in first Plaice...!!!! Oh to be a lot younger and to have had a crack at that .... Looks like a lot of fun ( and hard work ??)
Thanks for the report, well done on the spotty...
