Tarlach. Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 Hello all, It's been a while since I popped in. Not been popping anywhere to do with boats and fishing much this year. But, out tomorrow with a free pass for all day. So I'm thinking of heading your way. But how are conditions usually in the Poole patch with ENE winds of around 12-15mph? I don't want to come all that way only to pass the Needles and find it's too lumpy. Any opinions welcomed!

Maverick Martin Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 Hi Neil Coming this way you will be with the conditions and should be ok, fishing should be ok also 12-15mph in your boat should be fine but going home you will be against the elements. It shouldn't be stupidly rough but will be dependant on whether the tide will be against the wind going home.

Maverick Martin Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 As a comparison I would have no qualms going to sea in a F4 in Madness. I would probably be doing 18knots coming to Poole and 13/14 knots going back your way Tarlach. and Jim 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal Thomas Posted September 6 Report Share Posted September 6 For a more comfortable ride you might want to give the Christchurch Ledge a wide berth, subject to wind and tide. Jim, Tarlach. and Maverick Martin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted September 7 Report Share Posted September 7 Hi Neil, Good to hear from you again. I hope you are well. I was only thinking that I haven't seen you for a while the other night at the meeting. How are you and how is Leo? Has he still got the fishing bug or has the technology taken over yet?? Did you manage to get to Cape Verde? Cheers, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarlach. Posted September 8 Author Report Share Posted September 8 Hi Neil, Good to hear from you again. I hope you are well. I was only thinking that I haven't seen you for a while the other night at the meeting. How are you and how is Leo? Has he still got the fishing bug or has the technology taken over yet?? Did you manage to get to Cape Verde? Cheers, Greg Hi Greg, Hope your well. Life has kinda got in the way with Leo having guitar lessons on Tuesdays so been unable to make meetings, but he has now changed teachers and days so we hope to be able to make a couple more in the future. We are both well, and yes Leo is still fishing as long as it's not too early a start. Cape Verde never happened, we opted for tuna fishing in Wales instead, which typically got blown off, as did a trip to Cornwall for them too. Look forward to a catch up as soon as we can make it down! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Greg, Jim and 2006holmwood 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarlach. Posted September 8 Author Report Share Posted September 8 So, we never made it down to your patch. We decided to stop off at a mark on the way to you to try for an hour which turned into two hours because of the fun we were having. Then it was a bit too late, and turned into a good call as the tide changed so did the sea state. No cod, but we did have plenty of eels, hounds, and a bucket full of mackerel and scad ! Thanks all for the advice ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2006holmwood, Colin-58, Greg and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted September 8 Report Share Posted September 8 Hi Neil Good to hear you are both well and that Leo is still into his fishing. My son Brad (lucky Devil) was been handed down two Electric Guitars and Amps by his Nan. He is now looking to take up lessons too. Look forward to catching up soon.

great white Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 Hi Neil Good to read you are about again. Sounds like a good trip nearer to home. Sorry to hear that your BFT trips did not work out, maybe you ought to try again, the charters are doing really well down West. So far we have tried three times and all blanks.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thanks Neil If I was going Charter fishing I would definitely be going West. Steve Porter has already topped 100 to his boat in just 16 trips this season.

Mal Thomas Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 Do you think it is widely used, is it a forum that we can expand on in any way? Compared to other media forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to other media forums.I'm not sure if it's like FB or insta, think it's just a different format app for smart phone use over pc. There are loads of forums on it, but I don't think it's something you can promote yourself on.
