Knot
Pilot
First of all, why "Knot Pilot"? Well, because this is not a
pilot guide, just some random comments on a selection of slightly more obscure places that have stuck
in my mind.
Knot Pilot is a work in progress. Expect more detail and
more locations errr…. when I get round to it!
I'm not a regular visitor to any of these places so
you're not getting an expert view - more likely I will have been there once and
won't have seen the place in a range of conditions, if I think
somewhere has good holding there's a good chance I put the hook down on the
only tiny patch of sand in a endless bottom of weedy rock!
