April Fish of the Month winner. 1st Place; Colin Francis Black Bream 3lb 13oz 109% Specimen £25 Voucher 2nd Place; Steve Loftus Undulate Ray 16lb 1oz 100% Specimen 3rd Place; Pete Russell snr Black Bream 3lb 4oz 93% Specimen Reports of good fish being being caught at times and reflected with Lofty hauling a cracking specimen Undulate on board his kayak. An outstanding achievement as they can be a handful at that size. Well done Lofty. Also with this months results the Bream have turned up for some sport. All winner vouchers from last year and this year are with Andy at Poole Sea Angling Centre until we are able to resume presenting them again at the monthly meetings. Fingers crossed that will be in the very near future. 🤞🤞 Please keep adding any catches to the “Report a Catch” and you will be in with a chance of a £25 voucher as well as keeping records up to date. (Very easy to do too) An observation over the last few weeks has been the “Fisheries Officers” patrolling in their Rib, checking on catches and quantities being kept. If any rules are being broken expect the worst as they will make an example of you to deter others.

End of an era Stuie, always welcome to join us on Kingfisher anytime. 👍

Hope you had a good one guys. Good luck Sunday Charlie. 👍👍

Cheers guys for the kind wishes. Had a busy weekend juggling a major factory refurbishment and some family time. Two long working days this weekend but did manage some cake, a couple of glasses of bubbles and a few ice creams thrown in I took in for the guys working too, so not all bad. 🎂🥂🍦😂 The only fish seen was catch and release of some goldfish I had as a present from my daughter, released with the help of my grandson. 👍

Hi Martin, intention was a Ray trip but when we stopped to anchor over three knots of tide so used the ebb for a trip to the Shambles. Had a couple of keepers, but as you can see it was a lovely day to be drifting about down there. A great trip back with the flood so the boat had a good blow out too. Not too clear but the sunset reflecting on the cruise liner.

Sunrise towards Baiter. Someone’s new toy coming in the harbour, anyone owning up? Durlston Lighthouse Sunset over Swanage
