Just the day after one of those busy weekend at work we decided to head East for some cod action . The venue close to Dunbar looked perfect and with this amazing weather in store we were ready to go . Early bell and filling up the car , roof bars ready , Kayak on top .The gears are easy sorted and go into two big washing basket .The list go on , paddle , kayak seat , wet suit , foam floatation device , big sponge , zip bag for the fish , cool box , 2 rods , one fly rod and one short spinning rod , knife , forceps , sandwiches , drogue . drink bottle and then 2 boxes of terminal tackle including , rigs , soft lures , feathers and weights . The drive east early morning is fine , long straight road with plenty commuters heading to work . The sun's appear in the far distance and the wind mill are turning slow ,this is going to be a great day .70 miles or so later and finally the empty beach awaiting for us . I look into the horizon and the sea looks like a millpond with 2 dots 1/2 mile away , my friends are already . I set up the gears and fill up the kayak bits by bits just like a ritual . 5 minutes pass and Tam just arrive , he unload is craft and set up too . We drag our kayak onto the grass and then the sandy beach , the tide is high luckily saving us a long walk . I slowly sit down on the kayak and the light westerly breeze push me out to sea . I admire the crystal clear water and look down , there is little trail of sea snail engraved into the sand . The kelp bottom just looks like an under water forest with very small fish swimming around . Tam and myself paddle right out in the mile zone , the coastal light house is there with all the reflection , the majestic Bassrock with 80 000 gannets flying around in the far distance . This is a great morning , flat as you wanted to be . I drop a little silvery wedge deep down and slowly jerk it foot from the bottom , and the very first small cod pops around . And again , 40 foot of water below small codling are taking the silver lure . The next fish is a scorpion fish , one of those ugly fish with massive spines and huge mouths . Small one though but beautiful brownish marking . I take a quick photo and send him back to the deep . By that time we caught up with Bill . Bill is the veteran kayak anglers ,Very smart ,very fit and witty . His technique for the day is baited feathers and he is having a ling day . Ling after ling and mostly ling are taking his sea food cocktail . 8 in total , nothing really in size but still good sport .The days goes on and although it is nearly October it feels like summer . I talk to Bill as we fish close by and looking far out to sea and tell him , it's got to be a 10 pounder around here . After 6 hours drifting around and paddling Bill decide to head home and same to me , I was ready to call it a day , My rod went stiff once again and had fish on . A heavy leaded soft lure at the bottom and a lighter one just above did the trick . Straight away I knew the fish was good as it was taking line and more line , I took it easy making sure I was well connected giving nothing away . The fish came up to the surface and I grabbed it .With a small video of the fight in-store and a good cod on the soft fox lure and a couple of picture we finally headed home . Most fish are released and some are kept ,this one was a keeper . I put the fish in the cool box and headed home , my heart still pounding with a small grin on my face . I gutted the fish and weighted it .3.3 kg . I filleted it just like a fish monger and saved it in the freezer for the days to come ..Just add chips ..tight line all .Nicolas
Late at twilight on a smoky hazy evening, forest fires South of here near the Oregon Coast. The path to the beach is visible as is the bronze tree that commemorates the Lewis and Clark expedition reaching Long Beach.

Pedn Vounder beach, Porthcurno. October 27, 2022.
Two minutes of beach therapy, to help me stay sane until my next visit. As my first video upload (ever), I'm somewhat underwhelmed by the Flickr software's processing - the original is much brighter and has far better colour contrast than this upload suggests. Viewing it in a new tab improves things a little, but not much.
I don't know why, but I found the pounding surf on Anmyeondo this past winter to be extremely fascinating, not to mention dramatic.

The Orkney islands are an archipelago lying to the north of Scotland. They, along with the Shetland islands, further north still, are part of Britain but centuries ago actually belonged to Norway (which is much closer than London is).
Both sets of islands are unprotected from the North Atlantic weather, which can at times be severe. Both lie at a similar latitude to part of Alaska and Siberia but (fortunately) are not as cold due to the Gulf Stream.
As a consequence of the occasional bad weather Orkney has only a few trees and Shetland none. Seen here high above the cliff face we can just see an old coastguard lookout station.
My picture was taken on a Nikkormat FTN in 1983 on a "blowy" day.

Another Lost World pic, this time with customs of Breaker and Joe Colton.
The lizards in the back are dollar store dinos, the orange makes them stand out nicely in the pics.
This setting is my way of bringing the '70s Adventure Team feel into ARAH.
Whenever i see a windmill it reminds me of my younger days.... Its kinda weird because it reminds me of breakdancing... In breakdancing terms. The windmill is when
the breaker rolls his torso continuously in a circular path on the floor, across the upper chest/shoulders/back, while twirling his legs in a V-shape through the air.

Saint Eric is a nice old ship, ain't she huh? Well. She was built in 1915 and was actually Sweden's first ice breaker. Nowadays you can visit her here, as she was turned into a museum back in 1980.
