lady jane Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 we are out tomorrow from poole launching from baiter at about 7-30 looking at met office it looks like it could blow up late morning so it might pay to try the closer marks. we are going to try poole rough and southbourne probably still a bit early but worth a try.if it stays westerly we might try off swanage. cheers andy Quote
Gnasher Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Coddy has put plenty of areas/numbers in the members chitchat page. It may be worth storing a few from there if you havn't already! Goodluck 2moz Quote
Paul D Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Went and "fished" Christchurch Harbour this afternoon with PJ. Wind picked up and is bitterly cold. I was glad we were in the harbour and not outside. Quote
jack Posted March 17, 2007 Report Posted March 17, 2007 Sat.17th ..Andy & I went out P.M. just to give the engine a run,Poole harbour was "lumpily slight; Swash Channel was "windily Slight".and off old Harry,was "very roughly Slight". The wind was'nt too tropical either. jack Quote
TomBettle Posted March 17, 2007 Report Posted March 17, 2007 I think Jack has sussed it. A slight sea is anything that you could describe frm just more than smooth to the biggest of "short chops". Basicaly, slight can still be very uncomfortable for us small boat anglers. Most bigger boat owners don't need to wory until sea states get to moderate or beyond, but we are usually thinking of coming home when the word moderate is mentioned. Tom Quote
