Been a little slack of late. Happy New Year to the lot of ya!! I hope the new year brings you all plenty of fish (unless you are fishing my local spots)

Hopefully the next season should be a good one. I am going in to the kayak side of things and i have a few reefs in mind offshore.

One of my girlfriends friends has also called her toddler Kai. Unfortunately, another friend has a dog called Kai. So when they are together and someone tells him off, the dog gets upset too.

Just got back from the Newquay aquarium centre.Got kinda stuck on the tank full of nuggety bass.The urge to slip in to the tank was pretty strong.Felt a bit wrong coming away from the place with an urge for seafood.

Just thought i'd show you this website i found. Hotsuits Wetsuit Heaters....because every hour in the water counts

It looks ideal if you feel the cold and could be just the thing to take away the edge off the cold water now. I have ordered one for surfing but intend to use it for spearing too. I will let you know how it goes.

You have just gotta stay away from PLymouth aquarium. I made that mistake last year. The big tank with the atlantic fish is a nightmare to watch.

Last year i made it to about feb before i started to get a twitchy trigger finger over my childrens fish tank. Its starting early this year.

Hastings aquarium has some big bass and gilthead bream.

Gutshot, thanks for the link of wetsuit heaters. Sounds like just the thing for me, let us know how it goes.

The Hotsuits belt is great. After zipping up my suit i felt around the back to see if i could feel the button to set it off and did so by mistake so it is not hard to get it going. The following feeling is hard to understand if you are not into peeing in your suit, but that is what it felt like. The only difference was the warm feeling lasted about an hour! It is the warmest i have been all winter!

The only draw back i found was the belt worked its way up my body andended up just below my chest. I have a few ideas to solve this and i will get back to you. Mind you i was surfing and dont think you would have the same problem diving!

Next time i will avoid fiddling with the button till i start to feel like i may be starting to get cold.

hi

Ive got a holiday coming up in michaelstow near padstow in April and was hoping to take my gear with me, Can you guys recommend any good spearo spots around that area?

[Doc]

Any of the little coves between padstow and port issac are good and at least you have a chance of getting a parking sport that time of year.
