Kingfisher 126

Happy Birthday Dave. You kept it quiet yesterday, you missed out on a pint!! Chris

Kingfisher gained full marks for fish conservation today!! No flounders, only one very small whiting. Well done to all today who caught a flounder, It was very cold to be removing poxy crabs all day! Chris

If its on where is the weigh in? Chris

Hi Adam I have watched others go on the trip for a couple of years on the site. You can count me in this year. In the diary!! Same as Martin will look to stay on the boat at the moment. Lets hope the weather looks after us and no cancelations to work around. Chris

HI Chris Well fished, hope you,ve left one for the comp tomorrow!! Chris

Great news the weather window is looking good at last!! What a wind up it starts after we go back to work!! Happy New Year to All. Tight lines for 2013 Chris

I think I,ll just have to watch the video link again just to make sure Alf hasn't missed out any detail as I turned the sound down after 30 sec's!!!!!!! Made me smile when I read it, cheers Alf!! Chris

Alun Poole Cod Comp has been moved to the 6th Jan if that helps to make a date. Just a thought. Chris

With 2 large pinks on the table at about 1min 8 secs lost intrest in the lesson!!!! I think she may know her stuff!!! Best we get out fishing quick! Chris

Just abit of fun, as we have no fishing!!! Who has had the naffest fishing pressie? I, ll start a two month old edition of Sea Angler, when I saw it I thought it may have been a subscription! Mag fine but aready had it! Santa hadnt done his homework! Anyone had any floating weights? Just abit of fun! Chris

Merry Christmas to all, enjoy!! Chris

Hi Steve Well done for the effort your'e putting in. I offered to be a safety boat for the last comp. Offer still stands if you want to use it and pencil me in. Chris

Happy Birthday Rob, Is it right you will be getting the beers in tomorrow? Chris

You could smell the bacon down by Old Harry!!!

Gents Cracking fish, looked rough out there must of been hell!!!! Was that a smile Mal or just wind? Well done to you both. Chris

Slightly later start from Cobbs but the same start as Wight Magic, slip and slide down the pontoons. Out to the mark that produced a cod last week but nothing this week. Lost count of the doggies, 8 whiting for the table. A blonde ray the smallest I,d ever caught, the weight was heavier!! Later Stu caught a smaller one I think the hook was heavier, ray the size of a saucer! Stu got a lively starry smoothound about 6-7lb that had us thinking he was into a cod. Not a brilliant fishing day, very lively at times then long spells of nothing. Cracking day to be out though! Thanks Stu for the top bacon and egg butties and endless supply of cuppa.s. Chris

Well done Mal a big step for you. Will have to keep an eye on you now, No cod for us today, whiting and all the usual stuff. Chris
