daviduk Posted August 31, 2004 Report Posted August 31, 2004 Hi Sorry to mess anyone around but im unable to make either Sat or Sun Quote
Adam F Posted September 1, 2004 Author Report Posted September 1, 2004 OK Dave, no problem. Right - Just seen the forecast, and while I dont want to count any chickens, it finally is looking pretty good. The lovely young lady on the TV this morning, promised chilly but clear starts, but glourious sunshine and light winds for the weekend, with Bmth getting the best of it!!!!! Just need to round up who is coming, so far I have: BW (if she is fixed) + 1 Crew Splash Out + 1 crew Maverick Neo Loyal Royal Pink Squid - (Martin, can you check with eddie?) Les L, Mad Mike, Pete Snr and Billy as crew. Quote
Afishionado Posted September 1, 2004 Report Posted September 1, 2004 Any Idea which day? Mad Mike Quote
domino Posted September 1, 2004 Report Posted September 1, 2004 I may well be down on Sunday, with my mate Dereck (he may also be joining the club). The boatyard, where Domino is stored, doesn't open till about 8:30... so if we make it, then we'll catch up you guys out there somewhere. Alan Quote
duncan Posted September 1, 2004 Report Posted September 1, 2004 Phaeton's a possibility but I really won't know 'till the weekend - I'll give you a ring on your mobile Adam if I get out. We would of course run over on water rather than trail - but might overnight at Weymouth Saturday for a few beers............ Anyone know a good spot to pick up eels over that way?- can't imagine we would be too popular trawling the shambles amongst the fishing boats - even if it's only a little trawl! Mind you I might get more fish that way Quote
Maverick Martin Posted September 1, 2004 Report Posted September 1, 2004 Duncan The boats that I have seen trawling for eels go over an area of the shambles known as the fingers, they are on the east end on the north side of the shambles if that makes sense. If you get any spare then yes please. Martin Quote
duncan Posted September 1, 2004 Report Posted September 1, 2004 thanks - makes sense and yes, of course you can. Quote
shytalk Posted September 1, 2004 Report Posted September 1, 2004 the trawl needs setting up differently for the shambles. and also the locals do make it look easily but it can be very dangerous,a couple of boats have been lost trawling there so i would suggest buying them Quote
duncan Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 noted - probably back to plan a then; Hook sands and keep them alive. However if we overnight in Weymouth we will have one really hard call - keeping the tank or beer fridge running - won't have the battery power for both! Quote
Adam F Posted September 2, 2004 Author Report Posted September 2, 2004 Had a bit of a fiasco this morning.....hence BW never made it to Select Marine - she is now booked in for next Weds. Therefore I will need to become crew on another boat for the day. Weather is looking superb, so hope the bass are up for it!! Billy: Will we be able to rely on Eddie for our bait? Just to recap - suggest we meet at the slip for 7.30am? Quote
Paul J Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 Duncan, You just need a container which you can tie on and throw overboard. This will keep them alive overnight. Lots of people use an old washing machine drum Quote
Maverick Martin Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 Adam You are welcome to fish on Maverick, can we go throught who's going and what crew is where tonight Cheers Martin Quote
Adam F Posted September 2, 2004 Author Report Posted September 2, 2004 I must confesss - I messed up...didnt realise that it was the clubs meeting tonight! - Apoligies! Right, so far: Maverick + Adam & Dean Splash Out + Les L Loyal Royal + Paul J &Billy Neo + Mad Mike Pink Squid? Phaeton - Maybe Domino (Whippet) + 1 crew I think thats everyone, post here if Ive missed you! Quote
duncan Posted September 2, 2004 Report Posted September 2, 2004 thanks Paul - I have a stainless drum for this all set up but forgot all about it - it's sitting under a bunk in the van (as it has done for 3 years!) however the weather is now looking too nice and I am unlikely to be allowed out to play if I work things right I may get some flyfishing in at first light from the tender if we overnight in Chapmans Pool - but that's about it.

Maverick Martin Posted September 3, 2004 Report Posted September 3, 2004 Adam Pete Senior will need a ride if there is a space available as Dean will be crewing on Maverick Also Jigabyte and Sheila Marie have said they may steam up, cant remember who their crew were Martin Quote
Adam F Posted September 3, 2004 Author Report Posted September 3, 2004 Billy hasnt confirmed yet, so as it stands their will be a place on Loyal Royal. Quote
Nipper Posted September 3, 2004 Report Posted September 3, 2004 hi adam i spoke to billy today and he is comeing out with us and he is all so sorting some eels out for us all if he can . his computer is out of order at the moment . me and paul j will be going to weymouth sat night and staying over on the quay and we may go and have a beer or two . mark b Quote
Adam F Posted September 3, 2004 Author Report Posted September 3, 2004 Okay - cheers Mark... So at present: Maverick + Adam & Dean Splash Out + Les L Loyal Royal + Paul J &Billy Neo + Mad Mike Pink Squid? Phaeton - Maybe Domino (Whippet) + 1 crew So still need a space for Pete R. Quote
