Here it is at last.......appologies for the late arrival of this but there's a lot of trouble with the postman at the moment....he won't type these quick enough!!

Hythe is an absolutely brill place to put your worm in the water because there are fish there! Expect to catch pouting, sole, eels, bass and those lively whiting. Lets hope Dave Allen has managed to get a few score cards printed because this is going to be a good nights fishing. Darkness will bring the smaller fish swarming into casting distance so bring plenty of that lugworm. Wear a light track suit with trainers on the beach for rushing up and down the beach as you can to save that valuable fishing time. Better still bring along a mate who can return all your fish while you concentrate on catching them.

Stock up with those mackerel feathers and take a few casting lessons from Jason because those early mackerel will be patrolling along the beach at a distance.

If you fancy catching something a bit special..... fish with fresh mackerel at a maximum of 15 m out from the beach, keep your lamp and headlight from flashing over the water and don't make too much noise crunching up and down the beach on the shingle, lightly set the star drag, hold your rod in your hand and stand by for action.....don't be afraid of that very sudden twitch....don't let that bend in the rod put you off.....this type of fishing isn't for the impatient, it's not for the tiddler snatcher, this is for the Rex Hunts of the world.....this is what fishing is all about......be brave go for it land those Rockling if you can!!(oh and you may catch the biggest bass you've ever seen)

If the track suit doesn't keep you warm enough as your hand freezes to rod while you're holding it starring at the end of it like Timothy McVeigh then you'll be interested in dressing up like a banana in a very eye catching club sweatshirt for £24 (ladies long sweatshirt cardigans also available at this price for all you crossdressers out there!)....buy one you know it makes sense....you don't want to be the odd one out....with everyone pointing at you......and as my Dad says "if you ain't got colours, you ain't in the Hells Angels"......now did he say that or did he say "never eat more than you can lift!!"

I'll see you on the beach
