Adam F Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 The first Trail-away of the year is now planned and in place. It will be a repeat of the hugely succesful Burnham trip in 2005. Date: Sunday 12th March 2006 Venue: Burnham on Sea, Somerset Itinery: - Meet at Tesco car park in Blandford 5-5.30am - Convoy trip to B-o-S - Park boats and breakfast on seafront - Rig boats and book in ready for off at 8.00am - Return to shore 3-5pm for weigh in - 4-6pm return home We had 5 boats last year and I would like to make this at least 10 this year. The fishing was superb as was the hospitality of the guys from Burnham. If you have a moored boat and still want to fish let me know, Ill find you a crew spot. The fishing is basically uptiding in 20-30' of coffee coloured water for codling, rays, conger and bass. To get things going now, lets start a list of names: BW + crew Quote
Paul D Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Neo + crew ( Sam Chapman unless he doesnt want to go for some strange reason ! ) Quote
Maverick Martin Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Maverick will be going with Dean and possibly Bob H as crew Martin Quote
Sam Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 paul im up for it, will prob be next time i go fishing as the boat is coming friday sam Quote
alun j. Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 I'd like to join in as well. Do you think my little boat is too small to take up there ? It's a bit cramped and slow with two on board [ and no radio ]. I'll be happy to crew on another boat ........ if they don't mind me catching the bigger fish !! [joke !] [ I seem to do alright with rays ]. March is a good time to fish somewhere else!! Alun. Quote
Bob F Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Splash-Out will be going. I think Dave wants to crew again to see if he can win another Quote
JIMBOB Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Count me in,ive booked that weekend of work so fingers crossed for the weather. James Quote

Paul J Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 i'll come in one form or another Paul J Quote
Paul D Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 Dave, No need to worry regarding the sand - the tractor tows all the boats in and out and I wouldn't fancy trying to tow the boat out even with a 4WD ! Quote
Fugazi Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 Adam, Count me in although I haven't asked Chris the Crew yet, if he's not up for it I'll need a crew plus I can always accomodate one more if needed. Gordon H Quote
Paul D Posted January 30, 2006 Report Posted January 30, 2006 Adam, If anyone is short of crew ( unlikely I know, but you never know ! ) then my work colleague ( Westray ) will be up for it I am sure. ( Now I had better check with him ) Quote
DommyBoy Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 Yeah Dan, well up for it mate. Do you reckon that the boat will be ready by then? If it is then ill definately be up for it. Dom Quote
Gnasher Posted February 1, 2006 Report Posted February 1, 2006 Bruv, if u get me your half of the cash i will get it all fixed up. dont matter if u cant as we shall think of a plan B. let me know asap as i need 2 sort footy out. Quote
animal Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 Yes please Bob. I'm still OK for crewing if that's alright with you. You'll be pleased to know I've had a bit more experience of netting conger since the last time we went out, so hopefully I won't lose any competition winning fish you bring to the side of the boat this time round. Dave M. Quote
great white Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 Sounds like you will have a good turnout Adam I do not think I will be going unless the boat build is getting to me and Wendy sends me to sea. Or Sam needs a lift Charlie Quote
Bob F Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 Let's hope we get the chance to net another conger Dave. Another one of your bass will do me. C u soon. BF Quote
