Tiddler nips out for a Jolly I was working this morning and Jackie was at her Sister's. When she came home for lunch she said " why don't we go out in the boat" We quickly got everything ready and nipped out. We pootled up to Wareham quay & back. No fishing . . . . Just a Jolly! Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuvly! Must do it more often. Only used Half a Crown in fuel. Sad to see a lot of very badly neglected boats moored up the Wareham river though.

Commercial Shore Netting Update A big thank you to everyone who supported our campaign against the Government changing the law to allow commercial shore netters to land and sell sea bass. Unfortunately, the Government has gone ahead and made a law that says the prohibition on landing and selling bass does not apply to bycatches from some commercial shore netting. This legislation seems to us to be ill-founded and incoherent: no bass catch limits no closed season to protect spawning bass. will increase bass mortality, particularly juvenile bass discriminatory against recreational fishing We also have grave concerns about the way this policy decision was made. This is not the way to gain the trust or support of sea anglers.
