A Blonde Ray around 15lb and the Small Eyed Ray of 17lb 10oz.

Have a good day Dave, a perfect excuse for a beer or ten. 🍺🍺🍺🎂👍

Well done both, that’s what you call a Christmas present, enjoy. 👍👍🍾

Looking good Brian only 997 pieces to go!!! 😂😂

Blimey I didn’t expect all this for a ray, looking like Trump may need to step in and sort it out!!! I had slight doubt about the lack of lines on the body and as mentioned they don’t always have them on older fish I was told. Ive caught a few blondes today and they are completely different once you compare them. I was only concerned it was right as it took the club record, sorry Colin. Thanks for the interest guys and thanks Stuie for your efforts to date, top man. 👍

Thanks to Andy for running a comp alongside the club comp and the presentation venue, with food etc. Also team Fisherman’s Cafe for the food, all went down very well after quite a nippy day at times.

Kingfisher will be out making the most of owed days holiday!! 👍

Done, very easy.

1. Serenity - Tony - Jim 2. Marichelle - Mick & James ( non member) 3. Fisheagle with Allan and Mike Hall entering both Comps. 4. Kingfisher - Chris, Dogfish & Niggle. (Both comps)

Well done Steve on finding a decent cod. A great turn out for the comps and a few cod to the scales. On Kingfisher we didn’t find them but had a fun day with a few different species including Dave hooking a porbie twice, second time we got it alongside the boat. A great achievement considering the tackle being used and the tide. tried to get a loop around its tail as it had a trace wrapped around it an cutting into it. Sadly didn’t manage to get it off. Dave has more video that he is going to edit but a short piece to see below. Cheers Andy for a well run Comp to run alongside club comp and putting on food and venue for meeting up exchanging the days stories. 👍 IMG_3894.MP4

Main concern should be Bucks Fizz tickets were the most expensive!! 👨‍👨‍👧‍👧👨‍👨‍👧‍👧😩

Hope you’ve had a good one Oli, been spoilt I suspect.

Happy Birthday Nigel, hope you are being spoilt by the family. 🎂🍾. Have a good un.👍

Great write up Charlie, covers the week perfectly. The fish we caught between us was fantastic and the weather Gods looked after us. You may want to add a 0 to the Krona's for the fuel, £50 of fuel for a weeks fishing would of finished off the week! Well done must of taken hours to write.
