Sam Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 hi guys my last exam is tomorrow and then i am finished until sixth form and if anyone is going out in the week from poole i would love to come i need to get out fishing it has been too long i dont mind paying for part of the fuel with the little money i have (little i have left after spent on a moped which some twit decided to knock over yesterday and is now all scratched ) but anyway would love to go bassing or wrecking get back to the things i love best thanks in advance sam Quote
TomBettle Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Hi Sam I have the last week of June off. I am hoping to get out on at least a couple of occasions. Was hoping for a spot of Tope fishing, but the tides may be too big so hope to hit the wrecks for Pollock and Cod and maybe a Bass session or two. If you are free you are welcome. Tom Quote
Sam Posted June 15, 2006 Author Report Posted June 15, 2006 hi tom would love to come were are you launching from as weymouth is kind of out of reach for a moped would love to go wrecking and try and catch a summer cod sam Quote
TomBettle Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Sam As you know, Quest II lives in Weymouth so probably fom there, but I may be tempted to bring her round on the Monday morning, try in vain for Tope in a strong tide at St Albans, fish a couple of days from Poole and head home via the rips the end of that week. Wherever I depart from, I'll give you a lift! ...I am nice like that Tom Anyone else fancy a trip between 26th June and 1st July? Possibility of Bass, Tope, The Rips (never fished there except on a charter so some guesswork) or a wreck or two. All depending on the weather. Tom Quote
Seamouse Posted June 15, 2006 Report Posted June 15, 2006 Tom, you still want a run on SeaMouse? I'm out from Hayling on Sunday. There'll be three aboard though, not the most comfortable but do-able. We'll not be on utopia , but will be splitting the day between tope/hounds and bream. On the other hand, it IS Father's Day and a local bream comp for you guys. Steve Quote

As mentioned above, I am free through the last week of June though adn would happily take you or anyone else out on Quest II and just as happily bum a ride on their boats.... Quote

I'm working away later that week, don't think Mrs M would take kindly to me going fishing beforehand, especially not leaving her a stinky boat and instructions to have it clean, polished and fuelled up ready to go when I get back No worries, I'll check in with you next time I'm out, although this will be the last reliable date for tope and bream.

Sam Posted June 15, 2006 Author Report Posted June 15, 2006 would love to go wrecking aint been really properly in ages sam Quote
charlieannear Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Are you still hoping to go out next week Tom? I'm up for tagging along on Tues if poss. Quote
TomBettle Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) Yep! I am hoping to get out wrecking on Quest II on Tuesday and also Friday. Both trips are likely to be mid channel for Cod and Pollock and are subject to weather. I am happy to take up to 3 guests on either day adn each guest may wish to contribute to the cost of fuel and any bait (we may get some live eels) we have to buy. Tackle: Typically 12lb class rod and balanced reel. Loaded with 12lb or 16lb braid. Either a French boom or loooong sliding boom and bead to a swivel attached to about 8 feet or so of 20lb or 25lb clear amnesia hook length to a 4/0 wire hook for eels, 6/0 wire hook for mackerel. In case we can't get livelies then please bring plenty of jelly worms, shads or storm lures (all can be got from the tackle shop in Weymouth. Leads will range from 6 oz to 10 oz, but you shouldn't need more on the above gear. You may loose a few sets of gear, but it shouldn't be too much. Plan is to hit Weymouth at about 7:00 for a bacon butty at the new place on the quayside. Dash to the tackle shop, load the boat and be off for about 07:30ish. Fishing for 09:30 30 miles off. Returning to Weymouth at about 17:00. Takers will be expected to help clean the boat down before we leave. Bookings: Please place your name here if you are up for it. First come first served. So far I have Britboard confirmed for Friday, but the boat is free other than that. Tom In addition, I am hoping to cadge a trip with anyone who may be giong out Bassing from Poole or Christchurch on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday. Happy to chip in on all costs and evenings will be no problem..... Edited June 22, 2006 by TomBettle Quote
charlieannear Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Put me down for Tuesday please Tom. Thanks for giving a kit list as that would have been my next question I've got a rod, I've got a reel, but I haven't got much of that other stuff, but already scheduled a visit to Poole Sea Angling on Saturday morning... I told you I was a novice! Happy to drive us to and from Weymouth if that is any help. C. Quote
TomBettle Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 If you can't get it all at Poole SAC then Weymouth AC will have the rest. We do have leads onboard (assuming the guys didn't loose them all last trip), but it is worth bringing some too. The taxi service sounds great and you are very welcome Tuesday. Tom Quote
Swainiac Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Tom, I can do tuesday, if you have a space, many thanks chap. Rich Quote
TomBettle Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Right so far Tuesday: Rich & Charlie with space for one more if needed Friday: Britboard (Simon) with space for two more if needed Rest of the week is still open for me to blag a days / evenings bassing with anyone who fancies a run out on their own boat..... Tom Quote
Sam Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Posted June 22, 2006 could do tuesday if somebody can give me a lift think i might be out tomorrow with matt on bliss 2 so what will the cost be sam Quote
TomBettle Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Hi Sam Rich or Charlie will be running a chauffer service and cost will be most of a tank of diesel split between all crew and any bait if we buy sandeels. Fuel will be about Quote
Sam Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Posted June 22, 2006 ok dats fine would love to come sam Quote
Swainiac Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Sam, I can slide by and collect you if needed, ok?? Rich I think Dad has my number.......got your number....got your number Quote
TomBettle Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Tuesday is sorted! Sam Charlie Rich Myself (I should be there really) Charlie or Rich to drive (anything to get out of it) Tackle as described or whatever oddball concoctions Rich decides to bring. Rich I have emailed Richard E to see if I can buy sandeels off him. Can you pull any strings, otherwise we will be on mackerel if we stop for them (and they stay alive in my Tek Tank ) and rubber bits n bobs. Please let me get Poole Afloat out of the way (my boats have dissapeared and I need to find out where they have gone...) and we shall sort out the finer details on Monday. Friday is still available: Moving towards neaps, but still some tide. Wrecking is first choice or possibly Tope if the conditions aren't perfect for a trip mid channel. Britboard is booked (although still to confirm) Two spaces left. Tom Quote
Swainiac Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Tom, I cant promise eels, but will try my best to secure some. Will call you monday evening. Bear in mind my wagon is not a crewcab, so space for one only. Rich Quote
britboard Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Just waiting for the OK from you, Tom, looking forward to it. Simon L Quote
TomBettle Posted June 22, 2006 Report Posted June 22, 2006 Just waiting for the OK from you, Tom, looking forward to it. Simon L We are on Subject to the weather. Quote

It's called autopilot. It just needs a muppet like me to set up the drifts, but if you are feeling adept you can have a go at a couple of them. Tom Quote
charlieannear Posted June 23, 2006 Report Posted June 23, 2006 As I said, I'm happy to drive - got an estate car so should be able to get the kit in. I live in Parkstone opposite the labour club, just let me know where people want picking up from. C. Quote
