Had a really naff weekend suffering from a migraine that last 3 days and I now have the 2 day period after where you feel really groggy :(

I went fishing for a couple of hours on Sunday to get some fresh air. I decided to go to Babbacombe pier and shortly after I got there Babbacombe pier filled with hundreds of mackerel on the surface in a feeding frenzy as the sprats got herded into Babbacombe's small bay. I have witnessed mackerel shoals before but never on this scale. Within a few minutes I had enough mackerel to fill my freezer for the winter ahead. It was impossible to catch anything else and even my bottom rigs were pulling in mackerel as they fought for space in the shallow waters.

I had a really nice meal with Marie on the evening we got had the baby scan. We sat outside the Berry Head Hotel and watched the sun go down as we looked out across the bay watching the trawlers coming home from sea. It was really nice!

The tackle shop I use to buy all gear had a bad fire recently and I never knew how bad it was until I came across This page on their site about the fire. What a mess!
