Jim

Thanks Neal. Something else I noticed, _ there were lots of fish showing on my fish finder earlier in the day, and by late afternoon - - - B*gger all ! All the boats & Jet Skis must scare the poo out of them. I'll have to get Steve out of bed earlier next time. Jim

What is a Poor Cod ? One that's spent it's life Drinking, Smoking and chasing easy Women ? ? I've seen Poor Cod mentioned in posts before but just thought they were in " poor condition " It's all a bit confusing y'know. Jim

And another

Carl getting a photo of Small Fry for me.

And a few photos of Overdraft

And what about my Monster Bass.

And one of the bigger Pollack

This is the size Mackerel we were catching.

And This ?

Right, Here's our Fish Jim - 6 Mackerel, 3 Pollack, 2 Pout and 1 Bass Steve - 8 Mackerel, 3 Pollack, Can someone verify that the fish in these photos are pout please. Jim

So far, it's looking like Neal's in front ( again ). But guess what ? - I think I'm quite high up the scores ( well at least not bottom ). I took a picture of almost everything that steve and myself caught, so I'll count up tonight and perhaps someone can help me work out my points. Chuffed to bits ! ! Jim

Welcome to the Club Rob. Yes we had a great day. Jim

Well I caught the SUN My face is redder than a monkey's Bum ! Me and Steve had some fish too. I had Pollack, Pout, Mackerel, Bass. Steve had Pollack & Mackerel. We saw Court Jester off Brownsea Castle, and had a go there as well. We spoke to Bill ( Ferret ) & Dave on Lady Christine over the radio. We stopped and spoke to Carl & Aaron on Overdraft. We headed off over to the West but the Sea got a bit uncomfortable the other side of Swanage so we headed back. We saw Court Jester again, Neal seemed to be doing well ( again ). Got a few photos. I'll sort them out tomorrow - too knackered now. I think it was a pout ( I'll post photo tomorrow ) What a Cracking Day ! ! ! Jim

Thanks Paul. Thanks Gazza - I took a look at the Rapala Knot and have tied a couple to try them. Jim

I'm sure I payed less than that at Pipler's. See if they'll price match Adam.

Ditto your question Big Col I spoke to Dave ( Wight Magic ) earlier, and he said it was not species - it was specimen. Jacquie says I have to wee in a bottle - I'd be good at that. So can someone on the committee clarify for us please ? Not that it'll make any difference to me whether it's species or specimen - it only counts if you can catch summat. I'm looking forward to a day out though ! Jim

Quote Charlie C: Are we now presuming this is on? Well I am, the weather looks good. Adam's the man in charge though. I'm busy looking at youtube, Grinner & Allbright knots & stuff ! ! Jim

Right ! So it's 3 hooks and not tipped ? Any 7 hour period between 06.00 & 18.00 ? There's no food afterwards ? Is this where we've done a deal at Cobb's to launch for a Tenner, or is that the Open later in the year ? Do we just photograph, weigh and release ? When and where do I collect my winnings ? And would someone post a points - species list or a link to it please. Thankee Kindly. Jim. PS We have a space on Small Fry if anyone wants to be on the winning boat ? ? ?

Tell that to the doctor jim PJ The Doctor's scared to see me !

Yes Mick. We need to get some photos of it on the water. So they can go on ebay. Then I can swap back to my Super Dupers. Those are the ones you held in you sticky little mits at the club meeting. Both you & Gazza rekon they're great. I prefer the extra row in case there's 3 or 4 on the boat. But anyway - - - Mummy's watching.

You've seen the advertising stuff, Beautiful woemen are always glad to be seen on a posh boat.

I have'nt had my lessons yet Paul ( Bl**dy Weather ! )

Mummy's looking after Small Fry for Me ! ! ! Thanks Rob F for the picture re-sizer.

Here you are Brian, I'm not Insane, Honest ! ! !

I needed a girlie to drape over my boat, Jaquie wouldn't do it _ so I asked my Mummy. I think I'd best post a picture or people will think all sorts of things. got to go to my other poota. - - - - -
