Whitby Fishing Charters And Privet Fishing Trips

Image
Is Whitby the best place for fishing in the North East coast of Britain? I saw a lot of fishing charter boats in Whitby harbour. It was a beautiful sunny day and all of them were at the sea when I was walking around. Later I witnessed some of their return to harbour with lots, lots of fish and happily smiling anglers.  Then I talked to some locals about fishing in Whitby and the other smaller villages around. It seems Whitby fishing charters are one of the best in the UK if you are into fishing in the North Sea and having a wonderful day out on the boat. I saw these boat sings at the harbour. There are some really good and well known  privet fishing trips for larger groups and families, too.  This boat is offering 3 hours fishing trip in Whitby. You can go night fishing as well. They provide tackle, bait and rods. There are a lot of good reviews about this boat. I hope I can go fishing with them someday.

Is Okuma Safina Pro SNP 3000 A Good Spinning Reel?

Image
SNP 3000 Okuma Safina Pro Fishing Reel Review I have been a heavy casting and jigging enthusiast for over 20 years. In 2013 when I first tried Light Rock Fishing properly, I fell in love with everything about it. Since then I started to change my entire fishing gear collection. Now I own more LRF stuff than all those guys who introduced me to this crazy addiction. I was looking for a new super lightweight spinning reel for my canal fishing in England adventures. But it has to be perfect for catch and release fun in saltwater as well, because I travel to Mediterranean countries so often and I love fishing there. So I decided to have a quick look at some cheap reels but I didn't feel that passion to be honest. And I made a sharp u return to Okuma and Daiwa reels, which always make me come back to them. The Best Urban Fishing Reel? I have got several Okuma fishing reels but never used a Safina Pro before. I have heard that it's really good stuff and it's becoming a "mus

Some Plastics Never Go

Image
If one plastic bottle made it into the sea, How long would it take to fully decompose? Last week I visited Blue Reef Aquarium in Newquay, Cornwall. A perfect aquarium to see interesting fishes and aqua creatures, and even a huge loggerhead sea turtle, which was blind when they found it in Greece. I saw this information board on the wall about plastics. I think this should be seen by more and more people. Especially by the children in every corner of the world. As it says on it, "some plastics never go". Absolutely true. So, please share this on your social media, show it to your kids and friends. It's really important.  Let's see what happens when we throw plastics and similar rubbish into the nature and the sea. Plastic Cutlery 100-1000 years Plastic Bags 10-20 years Plastic Bottles 450 years Drinking Cans 200 years Cigarettes 10 years Cardboard 2 months Toilet Roll 1 month Glass 4000 years Nappies 450 years Fish Hooks 600 years

Fishermen's Guide For Trout Fishing in Tennessee If you are into trout fishing, you are in the right state. Tennessee is fortunate to have an abundant wild trout resource.  Although four species of trout are found in Tennessee, only one, the brook trout, is native to the state.

The Appalachian Mountain range in East Tennessee has approximately 845 miles of stream that support wild populations of Brook, Rainbow, and Brown trout. Most of these streams can be found on public land within the Cherokee National Forest (420 miles of stream) and Great Smoky Mountains National Park (245 miles of stream).  Tennessee Trout Species Brook Trout Tennessee’s only native trout species. At one time, all wild trout water in Tennessee was inhabit
