There was a bit of premature Alderneyfication going on last November however the time has arrived to start the chat proper. Last year I thought the flatty fishing was 'ok' certainly better than the previous 2 years remembering the catches from all the PBSBAC boats, hopefully that bad cycle is now past us. Tigerfish is planning to make the trip ideally a 4 day trip 1st to 4th May which coincides with neaps with a backup of 15th to 18th May which well duh is also neaps. Sadly the early May bank holiday is on a Friday!! and unfortunately it's springs that weekend. As ever the aim is a 4 day trip but be might reduce to 3 or move a day or so either side depending on the weather. Alun and Terry have agreed to put up with me again this year. Terry I assume you will be sorting the accommodation, I'll be sleeping on board, I just can't get enough of those late night dinghy rides across to the mooring after a beer or two and the deluxe Alderney shower facilities . So who else is up for making the trip?

As you are not a sports fisherman you should also look at what you you can keep for the table ie bass and under size fish Most of Poole Harbour is a conservation area for bass Anything you need to know just ask .

Very lazy......never went!!!

That's nothing new.😁

Hello there. We've just moved down from deepest Derbyshire, and one of the things I really want to do is go out and catch me some mackerel, bream, bass etc.. for the table. I have never fished before at all, save for a mackerel boat trip from Mudeford last year. I've kayaked a couple of times but have yet to get one of my own. I've looked into a taster session with one of the many local outfits that offer such activities, but being a bloke of a certain age am also tempted to dive in (no pun intended) and get myself a kayak and a rod and have a bash. But I also don't read instruction manuals on anything and that's landed me in trouble at times. So, anyone here fancy giving a complete and utter novice some advice? I have no interest in sportfishing at all, just catching dinner. Thanks in advance!

Hi the thing would be to look on youtube look at getting back on or your kayak you will fall at at some time cornwallandshoreangler does some good video on all you will need mark

I suspect our kayak maestro, Lofty, will join in, he is the go to fella for you. Terry.

Just think how much beer and cake you could get for that Jim!👍

Dean and I will be out on Madness, if anyone is interested we have room for one more

You're up & about Tony ! Nice one.
