I often feel I'm not your average sea angler... ..so I thought I'd post to see what other people think.

Is there a stereotype?

Do you fit it / not fit it, and why?

1: the mackerel basher
&
2: the tackle tart.

the pleasure angler are usually also fine weather fishers.. (when was the last time you fished in a gale)

the fish to feed are usually macky bashers aka glorified pollock bashers( not to be mistaken with C&R glorified pollock bashers)

and match anglers.. well you show me one thats not a tackle tart :D

Cant say I've been out in a gale lately but all last winter and the winter before..............Some of the best sessions can be in the crap weather.

It would make a great documentary: "When good anglers go bad!"
