Highlight of the weekend for me was a very quick and dynamically planned trip around the Mull head, conditions were good, tides were right, I was in the right place at the right time, only one thing to do - go for it...

A Splash In the Bay

With a fairly big northerly swell running fishing from kayaks was out of the question at most marks. Instead both myself and Dave took the sea kayaks down to Filey for a play in the surf...

First off onto the end of the Brigg - a huge rock outcrop that sticks out into the north sea.

And then across the bay to follow the swells onto Reighton beach..

Wreck Fishing from Kayak

We had a pretty good session on a wreck 2 miles off Clougton last year , so with an almost perfect forcast for today, barring the possibility of fog we decided to give it another go. Cloughton is not an easy venue with steep access and a launch from rocky ground that would be a nightmare in a swell  but with two working together it does save a 5 mile paddle.

A lovely day and quite productive too in glass like conditions
