Mackeral spoon...

Took the day off work last Friday (the weather forecast for the weekend was not good) and went sailing for the day - in the footsteps of Slocum and Chichester this was done single handed, and I had some of the windiest conditions to date to play in. Lovely days sailing, but bit cold and gray when compared to the last time... come on summer, make your mind up!!

The recently bought mackerel spoon was deployed, and although it looks pretty has so far only caught sea weed!!

Distance: 4 miles (36 miles year to date)
Wind: Moderate (Force 3 gusting 4 - perhaps 5?)

  1. There is an old saying about selling fishing lures . . . the most important thing for the lure to catch is the fisherman.

  2. Oh . . . and thank you for those links. I haven't had a chance to try and work my way through them yet -- but I've got them bookmarked.
