Kingfisher 126

Hi Jim I can pick it up from yours save you bringing to a meeting. Cheers

Hi Jim I use them in my pond no problem and I will take off your hands if they are still available. 👍

Again credit to Mal. 12lb 8oz Bullhuss.

To kick off with, these were taken by Mal so credit to him. 13lb 8oz Spurdog, had a 16 1/2lb later but it was busier photos were missed.

Brian Bragnell,(raffle assistant) at the meetings has changed his boat and the antifoul is a different colour on his new boat. He has approx 4 Ltrs of Hempel Blue, he has asked if anyone wants it and would give a donation to the club sponsored charity, the NCI, it’s their’s. It can be taken to the club meeting on Tuesday or picked up from Broadstone. Now taken, donation given.

I went out again yesterday Mal and all fish had gone on holiday, flat calm, a lot warmer, plenty of fish on the sounders but nothing tempted to jump onto a hook. Never two days the same that’s why we do it. 🫣😂

Hope Jackie hasn’t got your password Jim. 🫣🫣

Cheers Colin, first trip out in over 18 months without crutches and a boot. Not bad as I only had the ankle rebuilt end of Nov, all looking good. 🤞👍👍

Cheers Jerry and guys, great day out, as you say Jerry grumpy commercial fishermen as all ours went back. 😂 We were practicing for the catch and release later in the year. Thanks again Jerry. 👍

Mick, since you’ve retired you have too much time on your hands and have put a bit of logic together and made some sense there. Careful you maybe asked to oversee a flounder re establishment programme for the harbour. 👍👏

Have a good one Brian. 🎂🍻🍻

Best wishes Terry, have a good day buddy. 🎂

Happy Birthday Oli, have a good day, spoilt no doubt. 🎉🎂🍻🍷

Have a good one Mal, plenty of 🍷and 🎂 I suspect 🤷 . 🎉

Happy Birthday young man, have a good one. 🎂🎉🍷🍷

Another one sneaks by Nigel, hope you’ve had a good un. 🎂🎉🍻

Have a good one Colin, can we assume the boat was a joint present or do you have to get Bobbi something to match? 🎂😁
