Pecheur Anglais Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Hello all and thanks Sneaky Peaker for the nudge this way. Wondering if, at 2.7m, I can claim the title of smallest boat on here? I will post a pic on the relevant thread. So, I used to live near Milton Keynes with a place in France by the Med near the Spanish border. Having retired fairly recently, last year we moved to North Wales, because MK is way too far from the sea. I took up bass fishing with lures. Important to confess it is fishing far more than catching, but enjoying the learning curve. Missing my boat and with a slipway 100m from home, I had to find a way onto the water. So, bought my "boat" and love it! Look forward to joining the fun on here. Tight lines y'all 😀 Dicky, Andy135 and Saintly Fish 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy135 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Welcome to the forum! Good to have you with us. Where abouts in North Wales are you? There's some lovely coastline around there, and good fishing too. @Plaicehunter is a boat bass lure afficionado - I'm sure he'll be along to share some tips & tricks. What boat do you have? Post up some pics on the Show us yer Boat thread as we do love a bit of boat porn here 😁 Tight lines! Pecheur Anglais 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odyssey Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Little boats can allow you to sneak up on bass/pollack. More flexible than a big boat in that regards. Howeber, no snobbery here, all welcome 🙂 Just watch out for Andy and his tales of dogfish.... Pecheur Anglais 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just posted on Show us yer boat. In any porn category she would be bordering on illegal. Probably as much fun as a teenager though, but without the associated angst 😁 Odyssey, Saintly Fish and Andy135 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, finding that I am much, much braver than on a my bigger boat when it comes to getting close in to the rocks. Looking forward to all the tales on here, whether it is mackerelling or doggi... whoops, fishing for dogfish 🤣 Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
