good luck to all

They definitely need luck, the weather's been bad and they are all confined to the Solent on day 1.

Tomorrow forecast is better

they should leave the solent at least

 

Did they get any fish today?

In our team we managed just one fish from John,Neals mate only a small one right on lines up.A load of boats didn't get any at all.

Hopefully a better day tomorrow as today was slow to say the least

Best of luck, the weather was absolute cr*p. I watched the charter boats come in this evening as I was walking the dog. "Weather's awful Grommit".

 

I hope that tomorrow brings better weather and fishing to match.

[Newboy]

I've heard from one of the skipper there were about 15 cod caught all day, rumour has it Paul Smith (from Poole?) has the largest of the day.

[Gnasher]

i think 18 pound something was the best fish

[pirky]

Looks better today......GOOD LUCK LADS !!

Bring it all home !!

Naf..........that sums up our day.

Restricted to the Solent again and weed was a real pain,drop down and straight away we watched the weed hit our lines and drag our leads.So pulling up a 2lb lead with the same amount of weed every 10mins gets very tedious.Only one cod on the boat today,I only managed pout and half a dozen whiting,Neal and John pout.

I did enjoy the two days off work and fishing and will do it again.

Would of liked to of done better and tried my hardest ,maybe next year?

[alun j.]

the problem of fixed dates !!

 

Bet they wished it could have been Mon & Tues this week !!!

 

 

Last year in the Solent did it for me !

[Neal]

We were the top boat out of the 25 Boats in the competition - with 6 cod.

 

Two anglers had 2 each and 2 other anglers had 1 each.

 

Approximately 74 cod were weighed in by 43 anglers. Some boats caught no cod at all. The largest fish was just over 21lb.

 

It was a shame that we couldn't get out of the Solent but everyone has the same chance of success wherever it is fished.

 

One day I will catch one on this comp!

 

Neal

[Coddy]

Unlucky lads

 

At least you know know where to go (or avoid) when looking for this elusive fish!

 

Lets hope that the conditions are better for the club's Cod comp.

 

Well done to those who took part

Fred on Crimson Tide had the overall winner with 4 cod and the boat caught 6 cod on day 2 but blanked on day 1. The winner never fished on day 1 as he was at home ill in bed ! so one day was enough.
