58. Catch 101 fish


I belong to a local sea fishing club (yes, I know that's odd living in the middle of the UK, don't start!) and we go out once a month.

On Friday we went to Weymouth to fish with one of our favourite skippers, Chris Caines on his boat Tiger Lily. Apart from the 4am start (!) it was a lovely day, weather held out and the sea got progressively calmer after a choppy start.
We'd decided to stay overnight on this trip so an excellent evening in a local pub was had. The B+B was a little *limited*... though I love these lads dearly, being the only girl in the club has its advantages (not having to share rooms with any of them is a big plus!). I was put in what the landlady optimistically described as a standard room. Yeah. Given another six square feet of space it would have been a standard wardrobe. What there was of it was comfortable though. And I'd had enough beer not to care :)

So - that's progress on another list item. I caught five fish. 96 to go :)
That's Pete in the photo above - not having one of his better days!
