Kingfisher Well done everyone who took part when we finally managed to run the Competition The flatfish Competition will be re scheduled this month if the weather plays ball.

OK to buy them but NOT OK to catch them ? ? ? 🤔

Hi all, As recently appointed ( no other Nominations ) Club Conservation and Liason Officer, I would briefly like to introduce myself. My name is Allan Green, my Web Name is Fisheagle and originally enough my boat's name is also Fisheagle and based at Cobbs. I am keen on all types of fishing, but as I get older, I am doing more and more boat fishing. In these turbulent times, Conservation of fish stocks and working with others in the fishing fraternity to ensure sustainability will help maintain and hopefully, improve our sport. I will attend the period PDSA ( Poole And District Sea Angling Association ) which represents around 18 local Fishing Club's and report back from these Meetings which are also attended by the local Fisheries Officers from SIFCA ( Southern Inshore Fisheries Conservation Authority ). Details of these Meeting are published on the Club Website and they are open to all Members. I also hope to get an invite to join the RAGS Group which represents local Recreational and Commercial interest including Charters. So, if it is local or larger scale issues, I will try and keep Members updated and express Mebers and the Club's views as appropriate. Allan.

Very well done Allan, you were so far ahead of the rest of us! and thanks again Greg for kindly taking me out!!! It was a great day!

The fisheries are boarding boats and measuring fish. Mackerel, Bream, Pollack etc. We have had a couple of visits out in the bay. Just remember they have body cams!!

I caught 20 species on Fisheagle. Bit disappointed that no Mackeral and only one Ray. Weather really didn't play ball in the afternoon. Have tried to put up a few species for the Annual 2022 Individual Species Comp. but being told I cannot access. Boat Section is OK. Anyone else having problems.

Tiddler now gone! 👍

This was the main reason for asking the question. I had a visit by the fisheries boat last year and I know that they are more active this year. Thank you everyone for clarifying. Lures it is then !!!!! Cheers Greg

As usual one rule for RSA and another for the commercials

Oops I forgot 1, the smallest bream I have ever caught in the harbour up the wytch

Hi Greg I can confirm that currently it is illegal to take, keep or use as live bait undersize fish of whatever species Using commercially purchased bait be it frozen or fresh is not illegal So if you want to use joeys or other small baits, you have to buy them if you can find them. I would suggest that you keep receipts and wrappings when out fishing in case you are inspected to prove what you are using which will save a lot of hassle Dave

Hi again Greg. The issue will be raised by Chris Holloway on your behalf and that of others towards the end of the month at the RAGS Group. There is a move to see if we can get an exemption for recreational anglers to take a few of certain species for livebait. Meanwhile, follow Tony's advice and stick to published SIFCA size limits. Allan

Hi Allan, I would love to attend the event, however, it is my son's birthday party/BBQ that evening, so I will not be able to make it. Dave was a true professional and very talented and was always there to give free advise. I would like to donate £30.00 to the charity and I will give you the cash at tomorrow's evening club meeting. I do not want any raffle tickets. Greg

Species comp, nice feisty undulate caught by Martin on a pennel rig note the bloodied finger, but apparently it was only a little prick.

The results today from Marlin:- Greg T - Black Goby, Pout, Ballan Wrasse, Plaice, Conger Eel, LSD, Tope = 7 Species Mike Fox - Corkwing Wrasse, Black Bream, Black Goby, Pout, Goldsinny Wrasse, Bailions Wrasse, Whiting, Cuckoo Wrasse, Plaice,Tub Gurnard, Conger Eel, LSD, Tope = 13 Species. Having not fished a species comp for over three years it was frustrating how out of touch I was today with my fishing. Also, it was hard going as the wind picked up a lot more than forecasted. We could not catch Mackerel for love nor money which was both frustrating and quite disturbing, also, disappointing not to have any Rays on board too. However, one bonus of the day was having Mike on board to get some good tips on bait and rig preparations and he helped out greatly with the crewing. Thanks Mike for all your help (especially getting drenched by the rain on the last pull of the hook !!!!). Cheers mate.
