Sunday Saunton Surf

After what seems like ages without being in the surf, I got to Saunton on Sunday afternoon. I managed to get the afternoon pushing tide, after the worst of the crowds had gone home, and I managed to get some reasonably clean solid 4ft swell.
I also tried out my new Circle One Noir 3mm zipless summer wetsuit. My old summer 'suit was truly on it's last legs, with multiple repairs it was really starting to look it's age. My new suit is super comfy as well as super stretchy. The zipless entry is really easy to get in and out of, and despite getting a couple of good beat downs, it remained really dry, I didn't get any 'flushing' at all.

South Coast Fish Fest

I've been out on the water along the South Coast a couple of times this week doing a spot of Kayak Fishing. On Friday night Ewart and I went down to Seaton on the Jurassic Coast. I didn't manage to get any pictures that time, we were too busy fishing, and it got too dark too quickly! However we headed home with enough Mackerel for a fish supper.

And then today Ewart and I went out again at Teignmouth. We flogged away for hours and hours, but only managed to get a meager trio of Mackerel. However Ewart caught the biggest Mackerel I've ever seen! But on the up side the sun was shining and the weather was great!

Sunshine and paddling, it's not all bad!
