great white Posted August 12, 2006 Report Posted August 12, 2006 Hi All With the weather forecast looking very poor and so far only two boats confirming they are fishing Pete and I have decided to postpone the competition by 1 week. The decision has been made early for those that were thinking of taking part and have not yet purchesed bait and taking into account comments made by the Members at the last meeting, that they would rather have a good days fishing and record their catch than just scratch around for small fish. If you do fancy the weather for a private trip, stay safe and have a good day Charlie Quote
Mike Fox Posted August 13, 2006 Report Posted August 13, 2006 Good call. We came back from Northern France (Dielette) on Friday, with a NW5-6, and it was far too boisterous to fish even a short way offshore. With the forecast of NW 5-7 for today, we had already agreed not to fish this one even if it was still on. Definately not nice out. Mike Quote
Paul D Posted August 13, 2006 Report Posted August 13, 2006 Actually quite convenient for me Certainly wouldn't want to be fishing in this weather anyhow. Quote
great white Posted August 17, 2006 Author Report Posted August 17, 2006 I see from the BFM received yesterday that a few Members are in the top 50 with Paul D top Club rod can a few more please support the comp this Sunday so that Paul and others are given the chance to record another good result and move up the list Thanks Charlie Quote
Paul J Posted August 17, 2006 Report Posted August 17, 2006 i'll be there, coddy do you fancy it? PJ Quote
Maverick Martin Posted August 17, 2006 Report Posted August 17, 2006 Weather permitting Maverick will be out with hopefully Dean as crew Martin Quote
Coddy Posted August 17, 2006 Report Posted August 17, 2006 Unfortunatly Sammy will not be out to play due to poorly engine! Good luck to those who do make it out. Coddy Quote
Mike Fox Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 Inshore Forecast outlook of "W going SW5-6" might be a bit too much for us to fish comfortably on Frisky. Will watch this space. Mike Quote
JIMBOB Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 looks a bit lumpy guys 4 or 5 increasing 6 maybe 7! Im glad im sitting this one out James Quote
Paul D Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 I can't make the Sunday anyhow, so fine by me if it is postponed Quote
Newboy Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 Supposed to be out tomorrow from Lymington but it's now cancelled. Quote
great white Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Posted August 19, 2006 I Think that as the weather is about the same as last week the Competition tomorrow had better be postponed again. Next Sunday is the Club gathering with families so I had better move this comp to the 3rd September and keep everything crossed that we get the two in during sept for the sake of those in the BFM Sorry for the short notice but I have just come in Charlie Quote
Newboy Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 When is the Burnha match? Isn't it sometie in Sep? Quote
Bob F Posted August 19, 2006 Report Posted August 19, 2006 Fair enough for me. I had decided not to go out tomorrow. BF Quote
Swainiac Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 The Gods are shining on me at last!!! Couldnt make the last comp due to work commitments.......cancelled, then this one due to the call of Snook in Florida........and this is cancelled. Will book the next dates off, and see if we can nip out the flatfish grounds and bag a late Brill or two, maybe make a weekend of it. What do you say Mark?? Rich Quote

Rich That's a long way and a lot of fuel to Alderney for a fish! Coddy Quote
duncan Posted August 20, 2006 Report Posted August 20, 2006 ah but worth it Coddy! if it's the 3rd I may well be able to fish it - i'll keep a watching brief. Quote
Mike Fox Posted September 1, 2006 Report Posted September 1, 2006 Wonder if the "species comp weather jinx" will be impacting 3rd September too? Saturday is looking seriously grim, whereas Sunday merely looks grim.... And I wanted to catch something this weekend too........ Mike Quote
