Overrun Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 (edited) Second day out on the trot, couldn't miss the weather window. Arrived at Blue Anchor early afternoon, to find Ian (Dizzy) & Adam, and soon followed by Stuart (Oggy), we were all hoping for serious Ray action. The whole world and his wife were out, gave the cafe a miss, resisted the Ice Cream van, knowing that would be one of the first pic's up later! Very casual set-up, no sign of Lozz, we concluded he'd gone elsewhere. Text and call later revealed that he was 35 miles away, after yet another epic journey from Kent, delayed by a big pile-up on the M25. Hit the beach at 15:00, sea about as flat as I've seen it there, very slight breeze which later died completely. Soon after anchoring on the reef, Dave (Fishboy) paddled-up, I'd left a discrete gap (honest) to his mark but he elected to go further out. We were all within approx. 200 yards, apart from Ian who was 400 yards further towards Watchet. Dave relaxing Fishing slow on the last of the flood, Lozz finally paddled-up around high water, then went over to Dave. I heard Lozz say Edited April 11, 2010 by Overrun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overrun Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) Yes I'll post a 'let's meet' on AA and let you know Ben. I expect they'll show-up at Durley & further out before Kimmeridge, although the average size in past years was better at Kimmeridge. Last year, my first was mid-April off Avon Beach at night! wasn't very big though. Edited April 13, 2010 by Overrun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
