Member Removed Posted May 15, 2009 Report Posted May 15, 2009 Hello all, another newbie to the site and certainly to small boat fishing. I'm a friend of Paul's through AFC Bournemouth; a long time fisherman but not really in the sea. Pleased to be here though. Paul's scared the **** out of me a few times already with his boatmanship, if that's the right term, but I'm keen. I want to catch bream - haven't done so since I was a kid. So I guess I offer myself as a crew member with zero knowledge to any poor fool that'll have me. As I said initially, blame Paul D Quote

Paul D Posted May 15, 2009 Report Posted May 15, 2009 Welcome and when the weather is better we will have to get out. Also thinking of trailing to Portsmouth for the Tope ASAP..... Quote
Member Removed Posted May 15, 2009 Author Report Posted May 15, 2009 I shall look forward to it. 'Has to be better than catching small green vegetables all the time from the shore. Huge amounts of weed around at the moment. Forgot to say - my name is Andy Smith but I answer to most things. Andy Quote

Paul D Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 I don't think so, but maybe that is the scary part - Seriously though, it has been a learning curve for me over the past 4 years and I consider that I am safer now than a few years ago. Important things are to learn from your mistakes and listen to advice. Quote
Mike Fox Posted May 16, 2009 Report Posted May 16, 2009 Paul, You forgot to mention avoid holes in your boat and waves bigger than your boat! Mike Quote
