The bit you should read.
This fishing blog details my angling adventures around the UK (although depending where I am in the country I also sea fish from both Boat and Shore, Carp, Pike and Fly fish). I will be giving a summary of 3 values considered by most anglers as well as the additional Disabled Access rating. Since being diagnosed with CIDP and regaining my motor function Disabled angling and Disabled access is now something I always consider when visiting venues. They will all be rated on a scale of 1* to 5*;
1. Fishability *****
2. Accessability *****
3. Value for Money *****
4. Disabled Access *****
I think these 4 points are the key issues which are readily identifiable with all anglers. Feel free to take a look and add your own comments along the way!

Trip #98 - Catch it, Kill it, Eat it!
Trying to plan and execute a fishing trip regardless of
length when you have very small child can be like trying to arrange a small
military operation, FACT! So on the weekend when I noticed that the tides were
right, the weather was right and the time of year was right, and after a quick
phone call to the Tackle Box (where I was informed the fish have been coming so
close you could catch them in a bucket) I mentioned over a cup of tea “I may go
and try and catch some mackerel tonight…”. This went down rather well; as we
both like mackerel. I grabbed my spinning bag, checked I had some feathers,
visited the shed for my rods and packed the car. I pottered around the house
for a while and made sure all my bits were done and ZIP! Before you know it I
was popping along the B3165 towards Lyme Regis and thinking about the evening
ahead.

Trip #97 - West Bay Wanderings
This is a quick blog I wrote in the summer, but for reasons described below I haven't got round to posting! Enjoy!
It's been quite a while since I've managed to get out and
wet a line. New family members have the ability to eat up all your time doing
all the fun stuff that young families do. It's been and will continue to be a
huge roller coaster. I've only managed a very early morning session at Lyme
Regis, blanked and was home before 9am. Anyway.... the weather over the
last week has been one of almost constant and blistering sunshine and I had
been told that the mackerel had arrived on the south coast. My wife and I had
agreed to visit West Bay for a few hours on Sunday morning, and I would be
taking a box of lures and some feathers.
