    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well today was the hardest day i,ve had for months on the High Flyer, i spent half the night down on the Quay watching the rising tide as a huge surge was reported making its way down the coast over a meter higher than predicted, high water was 11pm last night . The boats all along the quay getting higher , anxious fisherman watching ,tying extra buffs on, lengthening mooring lines was all go. After midnight water got to about 2ft from coming over the wall not like last years when we all got flooded reminders of 1953! The downside for us on Sundays fishing was extremley hard tons of weed, plastic bags and various toiletry items on the lines 5 mins after casting was a nightmare! Moved right close inshore to escape helped but still not great. Ended up with only about 4 codling and few small whiting nothing else, much the same for the other boats even lads down the coast further south phoning up complaining of same problems. Would like to thank first timers on the boat Barry and his group sorry to have come on such a day being first time as well, plus the strong westerly, have known better days! Also john for doing a report of the day much appreciated. We didnt bother with any pictures today so thought i would leave you with a picture emailed to me some time ago, i wonder what breaking strain line was used, see what you reckon!! Till next time, tight lines everyone. Jon,
