Your welcome Kev, Good first trip West, you showed us how to do it. Ark 🤓 Good to find a few flatties even though the mussel beds didn’t happen, very pleased with how the boat dealt with the sea on the way home, even if the head, loo, compartment filled with water🙄🙄 The Pukka pies were great cold, (microwave broken) how long have I had the boat🤔! We had a great crack and caught our target, thanks for your superb crewing 🤣🤣🤣

The rain was pouring down. There standing in front of a big puddle outside the pub was an old Irishman, drenched, holding a stick, with a piece of string dangling in the water. A passer-by stopped and asked, "What are you doing?" "Fishing" replied the old man. Feeling sorry for the old man, the gent says, "Come in out of the rain and have a drink with me.” In the warmth of the pub, as they sip their whiskies, the gentleman, being a bit of a smart ass, cannot resist asking, "So how many have you caught today?” “You’re the eighth”, replied the old fisherman Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I heard plenty of it over the phone Martin, nearly all unprintable!! 😂😂

I trust your day will be memorable.- enjoy. 🍷or or 🍩

A very happy Birthday Dave & Charlie. Whatever you're doing I hope it's enjoyable. And of course I hope Beer & Cake are included.

Happy Birthday Charlie, got you priorities right then i see, work first build up the appetite, love is more important than fishing, so no fishing trip today then, good compromise you could have fish and chip supper with Wendy! Hope you have a good day. Happy Birthday as well Dave all the best Colin.

Happy Birthday both

Happy birthday to both of you.

Happy Birthday Charlie and Dave, hope you both have a good one.

Bad place to have the steering wheel come off!

Out at 9am with Geoff saw us drop the hook on the patch - bream from the off but mainly females - all returned. Geoff weakened and put down mackerel and bingo - Weymouth Wahoo, I noticed serious action on the mini mackerel lures and reeled in a 2,5lb pollack, Tide dropped and fish more sporadic so we upped anchor and tried a drift for plaice - no takers. A fruitless drift in the harbour saw us give up - the wind was much stronger than forecast and it had a cold bite too. Saw Purbeck Miss tied to a mooring buoy in the harbour with not a lot to report. I tried calling any poole bay etc on ch 6 early on and someone tried to reply but the signal was too weak to understand,

Well done for getting out and.looking after the Mrs breams

The king is dead, long live the king ! So the Parker has gone and the new member of the family was delivered this morning . 2 hours late and weighing 4 tonnes !!! A few tweaks and tidy ups to do but soon I’ll be out there invading your territories ! A bit like wicked tuna north v south . Strap in and hunt down the Poole monster !! Oooh yeah.... she’s a starfisher 840. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lovely looking boat hope she looks after you all

Great looking boat that should meet all you wanted [emoji106]

Nice looking boat Neil Enjoy her I'll keep an eye open for her when she invades the Patch....Tight Lines👍

Looks very versatile, enabling the odd weekend away or overnighter in comfort, as well as providing a decent fishing platform.

It won’t be operational at 5 am No you don’t drift past the ferry, ( good point Matt) I usually find the areas are between the entrance and Hook sands (tide going out) When tide starts flooding in other side so you can drift (virtually) upto blood alley No , it’s not easy, No you can’t do it alone You will find lots of small boats doing this , usual words of caution may follow

Very very nice 👍 graham

Well done on the new arrival she looks great, have fun
