After a few trips after the elusive BFT, I feel the need to try something different.

 

The forecast for Friday looks good, so I will go out somewhere to put the anchor down for a change, possibly around the 50/50 area.

 

If anyone fancies joining me please get in touch via here or on my mobile.

 

Regards Charlie

I bought 3 Maple & Pecan slices.

Looks like I'll have to eat 2 of them then. 😭

I dare say I'll manage. 👍🤣

 

Went to Green's tackle & bait at Cobb's

Very nice too.  👍

Sod's Flipping Law ! 😭

First time in ages that I can go out.

Charlie was kind enough to offer me a place.

I got cakes.

I got bait (Squid and Party Squid)

Rods are in the car.

And I go and get dodgy guts. 😪

Not safe to be out on a boat so Charlie has gone on his own.

Looks like a good day to be out Charlie. Hope the fish are playful.

I've been OK ish today but still feel a bit iffy.

Not even going to have any beers tonight so my guts can settle a bit. 🤕

Jackie & I enjoyed a Pecan slice at lunch and we'll have ½ each of the other tonight.

I bought 3 Jam dough nuts too but they've gone in the freezer.

Been using my time wisely though.

Jackie's sister had broken the door catch on her tumble dryer and can't find a replacement.

So in the words of Star Trek "I replicated one for her" (the purple part)

Modelled on the computer then 3D printed.

Not quite right.  Needs a slight tweak and I'll print another one tomorrow.

Wouldn't want to get bored would I ?    😀

When I said it didn't fit . . . . . 

The girls couldn't make it fit.

It fits fine. Just a little snug.

And surprisingly . . . . the purple doesn't look too bad. 😉

Looks like you made good use of your day Jim.

 

You are right the weather was kind out there today,.

 

Had a busy day

Started out in 100 ft, and before long the dreaded doggies were nicking the baits. Then rays took over. Small eyed rays up to 6lb 6oz, then a few blondes.

 

The tide got up quite a lot, and sods law the biggest one got tail wrapped and was really hard to pull against it. I had the leader but could not get it to go in my net.  Just out of reach it spat the hook. It counts but would have been worth weighing. At least 12lb or more.

 

Not willing to do that again I moved inshore and picked a new spot to try.

I put the kettle on to cheer me up after having to leave feeding fish.

 

Blow me before I had a cuppa I had another small eyed, and while the tide was ebbing several more up to 8lb 6oz.

 

I had a first ever for me, two rays on a two hook trace.

 

Last one of the day just before a 4 o'clock finish, was the only undulate today at 8lb 7oz

 

So sorry that you missed out Jim, I hope that you get over it very soon.
