Not quite but my
drysuit was. With temperature at 29c there was no danger of me
getting boiled in a bag yesterday afternoon. Having taken a half day
off work the targets were wrasse and pollack. I picked up some
ragworm and launched at 3pm on a flat sea, perfect! The wrasse fishing
was a bit slow but I managed three species, ballan, corkwing
and goldsinny. It was maybe the dropping tide but they didn't seem to
be in the mood. The pollack however weren't holding back and I had a
great few hours fishing. With the wind gusting to 20mph at the end of
session about twice that of the forecast it was a wet and chilly two
mile journey back to the launch site. It was however nice to be
afloat without a drysuit and have a taste of what kayak fishing would
be like in a warmer climate. That said, the water temperature was 15c
and it would have made for a bit of shock if I ended up in the drink.
