Paul J Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Just one for me today but it was my PB at 21lb 6oz so i was well happy. I had problems holding anchor, it kept triping which is not unusual for this spot. My boat buddy had no such problems and had 5 fish before i left him to it PJ Quote
ChrisE Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Well done Paul. On a wider note given that last year the fish were averaging between 14-20, this year's crop look to have put a pound or two on. Quote
lofty Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Cracking photo. The car park? Is that xchurch ledge? How far out are you? Cheers. Lofty Quote
Graham Nash Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Another beauty. Well done you lot for having jobs that enables you to go fishing when the rest of us are working I have yet to find the car park myself Lofty but I believe its a few miles the other side of The Needles. Quote
Paul J Posted November 10, 2011 Author Report Posted November 10, 2011 Grahams right, it'll soon become obvious why it's called that Just need the weather to get out there PJ Quote
Wedger Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Well done Paul! What a beaut......... my squid is getting all excited Quote

Jim Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Well done PJ. Save a few for a big old fat man ! Jim Quote
Overrun Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Well done and congrats Paul, another cracking fish from that area. Lofty it's doable in a Kayak but we are a bit limited by the tides, can only fish over LW unless launching from the IOW. Neaps are a good starting point as rounding/going through the Needles can be fun. Getting to and from the Needles is easy, but the leg south, you'll see the boats requires paddling and if you leave the return too late hard work. Quote
Maverick Martin Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 Well done PJ. Save a few for a big old fat man ! Jim You talking about me Jim? if so it'll be zimmers at dawn you know Well done PJ a great fish in anyones book Martin Quote

Fitting a kitchen for a few weeks in our nations capital but will be studying tides and launch sites for a trip in the near future. That's unless I can get a tow out like the rnli did on training day Quote

pirky Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Lovely Fish Paul Well done mate I just have to find a window big enough for me to get out ..... with wind / tide and school runs I am a bit stumped going from Rockley at the mo .... Dave Quote

Dave Dave it would be good to know if these fish extend to the closer marks yet. It is a much shorter run and not bad if you only have 5 hrs or so. If weather is not good tomorrow we may try to find out. Charlie Quote
