DommyBoy Posted January 7, 2008 Report Posted January 7, 2008 Hallo-bloody-luya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well after having the boat craned off the trailor about 6 weeks ago, we have finally got the trailor fixed, stub axel's replaced, new bearings, trailor rubbed down and repainted.....and looking half decent! Getting the boat back on the trailor in the next few days so hopefully there is still enough time for the boys of 'DAT DAM BOAT' to get out amongst the cod that seem to be gettin caught everywhere! Hopefully plan a trip out within a fortnight if someone wants to buddy us for a trip.....need a buddy as its been so bloody long i have forgotten what anything does! Fingers crossed for some catch reports from Dan & I before the season ends next month! Dom Quote
alun j. Posted January 7, 2008 Report Posted January 7, 2008 Hi Dom, Glad your trailer is repaired. You may be raring to go.......but weather looks pants [ for ages!!] Good luck getting out Alun. Quote
Paul D Posted January 7, 2008 Report Posted January 7, 2008 Dom, Provided I can get Neo fixed this weekend then happy to buddy up following weekend/s. Quote
great white Posted January 7, 2008 Report Posted January 7, 2008 Well done Dom Nice to have you back look forward to the reports again Charlie Quote
DommyBoy Posted January 7, 2008 Author Report Posted January 7, 2008 Cheers fella's! Yeah i know Alun, its sods law, just as we can eventually go fishing, the weather turns too crap to go out but fingers crossed for a break soon as i want a cod before the season ends and they all bugger off. Paul, Dan told me what happened on Neo last weekend, what a shocker. Good luck with the fixing of it mate and ill be well up for buddying/crewing/ or being crewed when we can. I want to catch a cod! Dom Quote
alun j. Posted January 7, 2008 Report Posted January 7, 2008 Dom, It sounds like last winter 'infected' you with 'cod fever' [ long incubation??]. Good luck......no cure.....even long periods of abstinence doesn't stop itching! ATB., Alun. Quote
great white Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 Not sure why, but they seem to have that effect on most of us. They are so scarce and unpredictable, yet we all spend hours/days fishing with box after box of food quality squid in the hope of landing one. If it were food we were after, we would surly target whiting and bass If it were a bend in the rod then congers seem to be everywhere, and are likely to be heavier. But no, its COD we want and ones like this we dream about Charlie Quote
DommyBoy Posted January 8, 2008 Author Report Posted January 8, 2008 Alun, cod fever indeed, and your right .....ive got it bad! Charlie......thanks for puttin up that piccy......how to bring a man down! I get my boat usable again and now the weathers shite i cant go and you start puttin up pics like that knowin full well that i cant go out and get one for myself.......... Im sulking in my office checking metcheck and boy things arent promising for gettin out any time soon....... Oh well maybe next year ! Possibly have to join Alun in the harbour for a spot of flounderin! Dom Quote
great white Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 Hi Dom Can not make you feel worse than us we were casting distance away and they got the cod Mind you a few years ago in the open we did the reverse to them when Dan had a cod of 23lb 6oz Charlie Quote
alun j. Posted January 8, 2008 Report Posted January 8, 2008 Would you believe it?? Look at forecasts for FRIDAY......... another [tiny] window of relative calm!! [ like Sunday ??] If it materialises [??] , I'll be looking to take advantage. Fingers crossed, Alun. Quote
plaicemat Posted January 11, 2008 Report Posted January 11, 2008 So, how's that Friday weather window? Here in Oxfordshire, I've just been out and put the bung in Stingray so as not to be caught unawares. I'll keep watching though, getting deperate for a dangle. Terry. Quote
DommyBoy Posted January 11, 2008 Author Report Posted January 11, 2008 Tel, weather window......probably lasted about 2 minutes! Been blowin a hooly most of the day and pi$$in down most of the time! Mate, not lookin good for rest of the month really! Quote
alun j. Posted January 11, 2008 Report Posted January 11, 2008 Looking at next Weds. ???? ....next respite?? Quote
plaicemat Posted January 11, 2008 Report Posted January 11, 2008 Keep looking, Alun, and let me know if it looks a goer. I won't need much tempting. Terry. Quote
