    Well I would be happy dressed up fishing, BUT I would want a seat and a flask of tea

      They are made of sterner stuff than I am John. A nicely composed image which gives a great impression of the cold. I hope you didn't get wet feet taking it.

        Hope their fortitude was amply rewarded

        Excellent composition, the waving rag denoting the wind strength, and that feeling of toe nubbing cold cold, Brrrrrrr!
        The picture tells the story, great when you have a bad memory.DW.

                Thanks all. I think these guys threw more seafood in than they were ever going to get back out

                  I like this one too John. It is beautifully photographed and tells a story.
                  I love the stoic optimism on their faces!

                    Thanks Lyn.

                    Yes, I think optimism is an essential requirement for standing at the edge of the North Sea in a freezing easterly wind on the off chance of a little fishie
