The Angling Trust's Peter Morgan will NOT now be doing a talk after the meeting. He told me he has been reassigned that day on some operational matters and could not now make the meeting. He ask me to express his sincere apologies to the club. We are aim to reschedule the AT talk for a later meeting.

Mal's brother Trev with a big trigger

Sorry to hear that you trip didn't go better Mal. I went inshore on Wednesday. Started for Solent gilts, no joy. With a load of rag headed off the beaches for plaice. There were quite a few around, lots of small ones and some mid size, the small bream were a pain some of the time. What I did catch however was loads and loads of mackerel of all sizes, best session for mackerel for a couple of years. I've enough now to last the rest of the year for bait and plenty for eating.

Nice one Charlie 😃

I do the same as Charlie. When refitting make sure the splines are well greased, aids future removal. I apply a little medium strength Loctite on the nuts to save replacing them. If the props are removed every year they should come off no problem, if left you may need to get a mallet on them.

Well I've got one, you could borrow it, my boat is in Lymington, I keep it on the boat. Honestly I think it's better to buy one, they are not expensive and both props need removing every year to change the oil in the leg so it gets regular use. Note, mine may not be suitable for you, it's for a 2006 DPH drive.
