  I am about to start planning my ‘con the wife’ post Christamas trip to the East coast, Kessingland, Southwold etc, and have no idea of best tides to fish 27th,28th, 29th of December, sort of pilgramage I have made for the lasr few years, so which day has the best tides……
  (open to be persuaded to fish the Bristol channel or even Wales to ring the changes)

  The 22th is a good tide for me! We will be in full summer, Rum + fishing. Would probably go fishing at 6 o’clock start fly fishing off the mangroves and move down to the beach to cast some poppers. By the 29th I would have landed 100’s of fish! LOL

  Matt had metioned about a trip to the Bristol Channel.

  in my yout I always used to spend Christmas on the beach at Dungeness, but had to put up with being bored senseless Christmas day once I was married. Enforced jollyfication is not my idea of fun either

  So we need to look at tides for 28th 29th Southwold (nice comfortable pier with cafes toilets etc) Pakefield ( heaving with folk this year, couldn’t get on it on the 29th)
  Kessingland – me and Jimmy got last two spots on beach when failed to fish Pakefield) need to fish about Eight bodies and enough room for Bobs food – Take your pick…..
  p.s. would consider car share and costs of fuel etc if anyone driving past…

  I am also aiming to bring some fresh locally produced dead animals bits and some bread for cremation and consumption, if we plan to take enough food perhaps the lesser spotted Rubble will be winkled away from sunny pakefield.
