Overrun Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Very early start, set off from home at 05:25, made good time with a surprisingly straightforward run through on quiet roads, arriving in Blue Anchor at 07:30. Fishboy (Dave) and Isca(Dave) a few minutes after 08:00. I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Nice write up cheers. Not sure I would want to be eyeball to eyeball with those conger! I think I prefer more of a gunnel!! Keep up the good work. Cheers Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

great white Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Great write up guys and what looks like an excellent away day to the Bristol Channel in perfect conditions. The fictures really give a feel for up close and personal conger fishing. If you add a few codling to that mix I am sure that our trailer boaters must be considering a trip, although from memory there are no slips at blue anchor. Well done Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedger Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 (edited) Surely there's a slip at Minehead? Although I can't remember exactly what.........Eerrr found it...... Edited September 23, 2008 by Wedger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overrun Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 This the one we used at Blue Anchor, bit tight for you guys: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedger Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Ah yes. I remember trotting down this one a few yeers ago, walking the 'old ladies' dog. You could use a small trolly............ maybe! I haven't got the chart for this area so info a bit scetchy, but it should be on 'the net.'

Seamouse Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Hi folks, Useable slip at Minehead despite a slight dogleg, low water means going out onto sand with some muddy patches - be wary. Blue Anchor has two slips onto the beach, both a bit too tight. Good slip at Watchet Marina but you'd be restricted by lock times for getting in and out. Porlock Wier is probably pushing a bit too far down the channel and only accessible 2 hours either side high water. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
