BUT if you dont have a small rowing boat or dingy i would suggest u stay at wroxham and about 10 or 11 o clock at night..hook an eel section to two treble hooks and cast under the old railway bridge...i have caught several pike under the bridge myself but coltishall is way better if you have a small rowing boat as it is jam packed with pike..some very small but the odd 1 breaking 15lbs jack :) http://www.the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=33&Topic=13991&srow=1&erow=6 jackbramham@the-norfolk-broads.co.uk (jackbramham) Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:07:07 PST Fishing http://www.the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/replytotopic.cfm?Forum=33&Topic=13991 fishing hey... was just wondering if anyone had any useful fishing tips such as baits for the broads for places such as: *ranworth? *the river ant? *wroxham? http://www.the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=33&Topic=14057&srow=1&erow=1 jackbramham@the-norfolk-broads.co.uk (jackbramham) Wed, 23 Jul 2008 20:55:31 PST Fishing http://www.the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/replytotopic.cfm?Forum=33&Topic=14057 wroxham fishing hey.. im called jack and i have been going on the broads for about 8 or 9 years now due to having our own boat and i was just wondering if anyone could give me a bit of advice of what to fish for and what baits to use for my stay at wroxham? id be very grateful if anyone could give me advice on catching bream or carp aswell :) http://www.the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=33&Topic=14056&srow=1&erow=1 jackbramham@the-norfolk-broads.co.uk (jackbramham) Wed, 23 Jul 2008 20:18:01 PST Fishing http://www.the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/replytotopic.cfm?Forum=33&Topic=14056 How many days afloat in 2008 1027 Gary.

You'll enjoy her if she's only half as good as she was then - a very comfy boat.
