Thanks for the update Martin, perfectly timed as it's the clubs AGM this Thursday evening. Well done to all for their efforts helping others to get over their troubles whatever they may be. Good luck with the training programmes and hopefully the opportunity to get others helping out will give you some of your own personal time back. Well done to all for their continued efforts towards others. 👍👍

Individual Angler Spring Species Comp Madness - Martin - Dean - plus could take another member, post, pm or email if you want a place Kingfisher - Chris W, Mal T.

Not just one species Martin (plaice). You have to try and catch lots of different ones!! 😂😂

Hope you’ve had a good day and no doubt something from a bottle to celebrate this evening. Enjoy it Tony. 🍷🍷🎂

Spring Species Comp First Comp for the new season, can be fished either day over the weekend 6th or 7th April. Individual angler totals not boat total, so jump aboard and join in and kick start the season with a competition win. Plenty of Species being caught now reported. Please add names to the list.

Now on its way from the bay heading up north. Heading for shipping lane before turning.

Hope you have a good one Dean. 🍺

Have a good one guys. 👍🍷🍺🍰

That must of been they same taxi driver we had Saturday night, we were praying as we passed the hospital touching 60mph, he was a maniac!! 😳😳

Brian, you haven't come out of retirement and taken Dave Wilsons job over have you? 😂😂

Correct call Mal, now what to do, wet a line maybe? 🎣

Best wishes Martin hope you’ve had a good day, if it helps willing to share a G&T to celebrate. 🎂🍷🍺

Hope you’ve been spoilt Brian.

As they say Terry every little helps!!

Birthday Greetings Ian, suspect consumption of some alcoholic drinks may take place. 🍻🍻🍷🍷🎂

Great news Ian, hopefully I will be able to join in with the social side this year as I took a dive last year feeling poorly. Looking forward to sharing the said tipple already. 👍👍🍷🍷

It was noted Mal that both of you forgot to share the fuel bill. 😂😂😂😂😂👍

Marichelle- Mick & James ( Non member )  Sea Jay- Mike and Clare Boblin- Colin, Bobi, Peter Russel snr,  Fisheagle- Allan and Dave L. Probably both Comps Stingray - Terry and Neal. Foxy Fisher III - Graham and Mike Reel Bizzy . Dave Jerry Kev  Madness - Dean - Martin - room for one other volunteer Kingfisher - Chris W, Nigel A, Mal T.

Have a good day both. 🎂👍👍

It may have had something to do with alcohol as there was plenty of cans of beer in bags on the sunken boat! Good result considering the time of year and no life jackets.

There was a speed boat sunk in the harbour on Boxing Day off Dorset Lake late afternoon, five on board all picked up from the water, no life jackets worn but lots of beer on the boat!! All saved, and for some reason being kept very low key!!! RNLI picked them up. Anyone heard anything? Great Christmas for the five involved.
