I caught some nice plaice fishing from the harbor walls in Hove at around 3 am

Oh, Hove has a harbour now ? They have gone even more upmarket.

They bought it off Shoreham last year and towed it over..............actually.

Good point there is no bloody harbour in hove! Did you really catch plaice at 3am!?

Ah, another valid point. Plaice are " sight feeders". The opposite of Dover Soles, sure you didn't open a bottle or two of 3am Saint by mistake ?

I could easily spend a warm summers night on the banks of the Ouse near Southease. Although sunrise can be a bit 'Hound of the Baskervilles'

On a serious note, depending on the River, you could expect Barbel, Bream, Carp, Chub, Eel & Tench during the night, had my PB Barbel at 11lb 12ozs a couple of seasons ago at around 3am.

Funny you should say that, my mate Keith and myself used to go night fishing at Rodmell a lot in our youth.
I remember sitting on the concrete wharf, leaning, legs astride, against a metal pole imbedded in the cement.
Where I happily fell asleep from about 12.30 till daylight.
It did look just like this, was a bit spooky, I believe Virginia Wolf drowned herself in the Ouse at Rodmell.
