Thanks for joining me today Jim. Really enjoyable even if Colin was right about the wind. Nice sunny day in the chilly wind. Bit rude of me to catch a fish before you had a bait in the water, but it was only one of many doggies. Moving out to the 50 50 area was a good move, even if the waves were bigger. Dogs whiting pout started us off. A short time later as the tide eased, I was rewarded with a small blonde ray. Before that was even out of the net, my other rod bent to a strong fish. Great effort by Jim to get the net under a stroppy spurdog, that pulled the scales down to 7.6 kg. 16lb 12oz. In old money. As the tide started to build on its ebb run , we decided to move back inshore. For just a few more doggies. 1600 end and short run back to the yacht club. Jim took the pictures so i will ask him to add a few.

Good luck boys, Charlie, hope you have warned Jim not to come over dressed in his Sunday suit tomorrow because he is very likely to catch FISH on your boat 😂 and so keep your camera to hand ready for any rare photo opportunity 😋. Sure you'll have fun but it looks like you will have to dodge southerly's as best you can ! Safe treck and tight lines. Colin.

Three visits to the boat over the last few days with Mould spray and lots of kitchen roll in hand, the black mould this year in the cabin was very ugly. Re sorted all life jackets, Dan buoy, throw ropes, fire extinguisher, fire blanket, flooring and mats all had mould on them. I can report HG mould spray is better than bleach. It was a bit of a grind, but gradually I enjoyed the process, looking forward to the season. Then it was the turn of the tackle box, oh no! Note to self, don't but any more hooks, sidewinders, slow jigs, line, swivels, clips or any terminal tackle and I think six pairs of scissors is perhaps excessive. The tackle shop is off limits. How many of you are agreeing? Engine serviced, diesel tank for the heater filled, radio checked, knives sharpened, decks scrubbed and now I am ready to be dropped back in. Are you all ready for the new season and the February meeting, I am looking forward to seeing you all and serving another year as your chairman.

Well done Mal All that effort will be worth it. We all carry far to much kit and tackle, but 6 pairs of scissors, may be a tad over the top.

Note to self: Take lots of pictures. We can add the fish in later! 🤣

Hi everyone, I have not been out for a couple of weeks and there seems to be a window in the weather on Friday. The tides are a bit too large to go very far out, so it may be a few hours on the 50/50 banks and a few on a mark nearer to shore. If anyone would like to join me , please let me know in the normal way Charlie

Lets get our photo of the month going.

I will be venturing out to the SRM Tomorrow. Probably getting the 09.30 bridges out of Cobbs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
