Kingfisher 126

Thanks Rob.

Can't play video but will allow Aunty Jeans party to play!!!!! I love "IT". ;(

Enjoy your day Dave more tackle to unwrap!!

Good to see that having to fish in the harbour still produced some good scoring, shows the points system is working out quite well.

Thanks for the update Greg and great effort pulling it all together, a lot of work involved. Cheers and well done. Chris

Great footage Jim, next time attach a lure and do the altimute trolling film. Well done.

Didn't need to know that Steve the reports will do!!!!!

Have a good day Lofty no doubt dangling somewhere in this weather!!! Enjoy.

Hi Greg, Thanks for organising comp went well today as the weather just stayed kind enough for us all. I left the tally sheet on the boat as I had a four year old asleep when I left the boat so it was overlooked. Hopefully get a chance to pick it up tomorrow and send results. Cheers.

Holiday time for me already booked to be away!!

Ready for the battering when they got back to the club!!! ;(. ;(

Went for a day out with my brother and his son in law, he hadn't been out for a while so we tried for some bream to start with. Tried for some mackerel for bait and had a few but no massive numbers. Anchored the mark and bites started before all rods were baited! Bream to a decent size were there along with plenty on pout, poor cod, LSD, red gurnard, wrasse, very small conger and smoothounds. I put a live mackerel on just in case a bass was about but it was bitten off by a tope, so a thicker trace and another mackerel so the others could have some fun with a tope, didn't take long and soon the rod was bent over taking line! Gary takes the rod and has a bit of fun bringing in a lively tope, in the boat to unhook and it's got the hook in its mouth from earlier!! Both hooks returned a couple of photos for them and it goes back. I put a live pout on another rod and soon there was interest and Dan takes the rod and he pulls in a female undulate Ray which was a mission for a carp fisherman against the tide!! Weighed in at 14 1/2lb. We had a few like that and a male with very distinctive black marks around the tip of the nose and along its wing tips. A little later a nice bite on the bream rod and a ray eventually to the boat and it's the same male undulate you could still see where the first hook had been!! When the tide died we decided for a drift down the Swash for a plaice with Kev and Jacobs leftover worms as ours were not very good yesterday, theirs worked as we had a couple of keepers. A nice mixed day with plenty of fish to keep the smiles on their faces along with the sun tan, I leant Dan some sun glasses and when he took them off when we got back I suspect he maybe getting some stick at work today!! .

Top man, that takes some pressure off Mal.

Great start well done and a good tutor to get you going!!

Thanks Mike, one rainy day once you have your boat sorted we can see if we can break it!! Would be useful to have them shared. Also added to the Ray Marine or is that impossible?

Hi Mike I tried to do the same once but gave up as one of my Garmin's needed its own reader, so now have different waypoints on different plotters can be a pain at times but I haven't got the patience you have shown on IT type things!! Well done on sorting it.

The yakers are getting wilder with their catches, a great white in a yak next!!

He only wants try out his next boat Fred, saves him putting a deposit on one first!!!

Well Fred that should get some funds rolling in, what a great idea and many thanks for the very kind offer. If they don't like fishing there is always the TV to watch, invitation only!!! Thanks again.

Enjoy Charlie, they turn up quicker each year!!!
