alun j. Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 I don't seem to be skilled enough yet in posting piccies...... .... and my catch report has also just vanished !! .but I'll keep trying!! Well done Dom on the rewards of your perseverence; an excellent way to top your Brother and start your cod file. Thanks for the fish........ that went down a treat with guests........ some big improvement on the alternative menu!! I'll try again to post the pic. Alun Quote
Gnasher Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 20lb on the nose i think it went. Well done bruv. Get it recorded with charlie Quote
Paul D Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Alun, E-Mail me the picture ( webmaster@pbsbac.co.uk if you like and I will add it ( assuming you have worked out how to get it from camera to PC ) Quote
alun j. Posted January 28, 2007 Author Report Posted January 28, 2007 Paul , you should find two piccies of Dom's fine, first cod. One half of which was much appreciated by me and my dinner guests last night. Menu.....: Starter:- spicy tomato confit with squid on rocket salad with homemade bread. Main :- grilled cod fillet with butter seared skin served on stir fried egg noodles with sweet red chillies [ very mild] Dessert:- tarte au citron. Alun. Quote

Paul J Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Nice Fish Dom, well done mate The "Cod brothers" certainly seem to have the knack of catching these fish PJ Quote
Fugazi Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Great result well worth getting out there, did you guys catch any Whiting? Are there any still about as my mate keeps asking me to go out with him for a Whiting bash. Gordon H Quote
duncan Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Dom, If you want a print let me know - I have uploaded the full size file of this to my photobox account and it will proabably go 5x7 well and even bigger but at a push. Quote
Bob F Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Cracking first Cod, Dom. Well done that man!! Quote
Paul D Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Duncan , I have the full 1MB file from Alun if you want to "tweak" that one. Quote
duncan Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 thanks Paul - but that's the one I worked. although of course I compressed hard for the site it's a good file for only 1mb - nice camera obviously! Quote
plaicemat Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Well done, Alun and Dommie (he say's through clenched teeth). I'd put my rods away for the winter but am now wondering if I was a little premature. Terry. Quote
great white Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Nice fish Dom Hell of a Cod to start with, and a good contender for the fish of the month. Actually its not far off the heaviest cod recorded last year so it certainly sets a good target for the 2007 cod trophy. I no doubt have been sent a catch report. Duncan I like the photo mate well impressive Well done Charlie Quote
Gnasher Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Charlie, I have sent you a catch report on Doms behalf as we only has PC acsess at work and he has been signed off for a week ill (bl00dy wussy). He hasn't even seen the pic yet, but will be chuffed to bits with it when he does. Quote
Paul D Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Dan, No catch report been sent through the site. Could you send one using the link at the top of the site "E-Mail Catch Report" link. Every one sent gets recorded into the database on this site and I intend to make it worthwhile for those that use this facility...... Duncan, Your photo looks crisper than the one I posted - eg. The rods are sharper( and they are both similar resolution ). All I did was open the original file in mspaint and use shrink to get it down to a size which could be posted. What did you use to tweak the photo ? Quote
duncan Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 about 26 layer adjustments in Adobe CS2............. but I'm glad I played with it now! it really was a good image to start with Quote
Paul D Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 You would have been depressed if my "shrink and post effort" had been sharper though Quote
Coddy Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Super fish matey Just wish I could get one like that sometime Coddy(less) Quote
Sinbad Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Looks at least two mega bites to me..... Cracking Fish, I bet Alun had that filet off before the engine had cooled down.... skippers taxes and all... Quote
DommyBoy Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 (edited) Thanks Alun for the day out on your boat.....what a boat it is aswell. It was a crackin day, good company,great weather and topped off with a good fish. Thats probably it for the winter now so a good way to end the season for me.....bring on the summer! And also a big thank you to Duncan for taking the time of sorting out a quality picture for me and sending it. It arrived at the weekend so thanks mate. Dom Edited February 5, 2007 by DommyBoy Quote
