TomBettle Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hi Guys Can I please ask each of you to call in this evening. Rich: Please call at +/- 19:00 to finalise travel details Also Rich, can I ask you to grab some bottled water and a pint of milk for T & C? Sam: Please call at +/- 19:10 so I can let you know who is collecting you and at what time Charlie A: Please call at +/- 19:20 so I can tell you what time to get your kettle on! Home Number please as the mobile is a bit shaky in the house. 01202 760711 Off to the boat in a moment as I haven't seen her since Alderney and I don't know what state the other guys have left her in Bring gear as previously described: 12lb classish rod / reel Braid mainline 20lb / 25lb hook lengths 4/0 & 6/0 fine wire hooks Selection of rubber things I have leads onboard, but 6oz through 10oz will be helpful Bring your own sarnies please Also bring a couple of sets of macky feathers to see if we can get a few joeys for livelies if I can't get hold of sandeels (not the end of the world, the rubber stuff will do just fine). I am going to have a tinker with my tek-tank later to see if I can improve it's keeping livelies lively. The plan will be to catch some mackies and then head n a general South Easterly direction to a couple of rusty things. We have flood tide until about 11:30, when it slackens, if our wreck is doing very well we may drop some cut baits down (not at anchor) to see if we can persuade something long and slimey to take it (on the light gear! , it's fun), but will more likely end up wth monster pout. If the wreck has been poor, I'll use the slack to move over to an alternative rusty thing or two and then later we'll use the ebb to shove us up the chuff a little on the way home. Should be back in Weymouth at about 17:00, but we need to fuel up and tidy up before we go home. Fingers crossed for a good one! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlieannear Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 An hour in the tackle shop on Saturday morning with the credit card and I left with a carrier bag full of all sorts of bits of metal, plastic and rubber- hopefully it's the right stuff! Hopefully by this time tomorrow I'll have a few pb's under my belt... not hard when you've never caught anything before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 would be great to catch some pb's want to beat my cod of 14lb and pollack of 10lb so i'm not asking for much but will be happy with anything apart from pout sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBettle Posted June 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Sam If the fish are having it tomorrow you should easily beat your Pollock PB.The cod one is touch and go as they have been getting them, but they tend to be just under the double mark with a few stray 20's for good measure. Fingers crossed guys! Tom Charlie I am fairly sure that what you have purchased will do just fine, either way, I have plenty of spare bits n bobs onboard.
