Happy Birthday Jacob Big 13 a teenager 😉😉 hope you have a great day 🎂🎂🎂 Grandad

Blimey Jacob ! 13 Old enough to chase girls ! Just not old enough to catch them. Have a slice of cake in stead. Far less trouble ! ! Hope the weather improves so you can show Grandad how to catch fish again. He'll have forgotten everything he learned last year. I always do. Tiddler.

i remember when Hugh Fernlywhatshisface did a program about discards. He was on a boat off Hastings i think and they had no quota for cod. They kept the cod they caught and when they returned to shore they threw them over the side and there were "locals" on the beach with waders and nets picking the dead cod from the water and taking them. Apparently as the boat hadn't landed them then no offence was committed. Maybe we could do the same with bass?

I would fully agree with this apart from a few things: As MB says: Commercials can still catch them. Introducing SEALS to the Bass nursery: No one to police shore fishing ( British or not ) Holiday makers just ignoring it. I dare say there's many more unfair things but these came straight to my head. Thank you Charlie. You put a lot of work into this for us and translate a lot of Jargon so people like me can understand it. Jim
