Ok Dave will bring it tonight Bobi thinks it might be to long for you Colin

We are at North Haven and really pleased to be there. 24hr use of the club house which has a well equipped kitchen, showers, underfloor heating and free water. We are insured 12 months no prob. As Chris said there is a taxi during the season and dingies all year. It's very friendly and there are a lot of experienced boaters always on hand for help or advice. Also it is CHEAP !!! I don't think you will find cheaper anywhere in this area. If anyone is interested get on with it because the vacant moorings will fill up very quickly. Colin

Mustad Viking two piece floatation suit medium in brand new condition worn twice never fished.

With the wind like it was last night our thoughts were for Boblin out on her mooring.This morning Bobi went off to work and I was off to check out Boblin and make sure all was ok. I took my time a late breakfast and was just about to head down to North Haven when the phone went, it was Bobi asking me to ring the insurance company. Not the boat but the car !! A tree fell on top of it in the car park. Thankfully Bobi was not in the car. Just hope the damage isn't terminal, roof, side panel and rear hatch. Great start to 2012 eh? Still the main thing is the boat is ok. Colin

Merry Christmas to everyone. We are off to fish the harbour in a mo any one out there we will be on ch6. Colin and Bobi

About 0900hrs Tim isn't always the most punctual of people. Colin

This post was put up by Coddy to remember the crew of the life boat. Very brave and selfless men who lost their lives trying to save the crew of the stricken coaster. I think it is very disrespectful to highjack this post to start sniping at the RNLI. If you want to voice your thoughts please start your own post. Colin

Sorry guys spent the voucher and have the covers and dodgers already. Tell him you are a member of pbsbsac and you will get a discount. Colin

I won the prize of 100 quid off covers from cut n cover. Excellent quality superb service and very fast turn around. Highly recommend them. Colin

Martin just try and ignore the self indulgent prat. He just loves the sight and sound of his own voice. Colin

Happy birthday son

Good luck to all taking part. Sorry to say we will not be fishing as we are working. Colin

All my schools were on strike yesterday and the weather was fine in the morning so I just had to get out for a few hours. Cut n Covers were coming to measure up for my prize from the open at 1400 so had to be back at North Haven to meet Wayne. I headed off to the castle to see if I could bag a big wrasse. I had no crew so was happy to mooch around in the harbour (Bobi was working). Fishing was slow 2 drifts not a bite then on 3rd drift bang something big was on the end it fought hard and sorry to say after a couple of minutes we parted company. I had several more drifts but didn't hook into anything. So change location up the channel for a couple more drifts, nothing. By now it was time to head back and meet Wayne, he was there waiting when I got back and he got on and measured up for the covers( more about these some other time). I took Boblin back out to the mooring and while I was packing up chucked out a line. Everything was put away and I was just about to pack the rod away when something took off like a train. To cut a long story short 3lb bass. The net was in the cabin packed away I could just get hold of the handle and play the fish with both arms fully outstretched luckily the net didn't catch on anything and the bass was safely netted. So bass for tea. I still had a few worms so chucked out again and a few mins later I hooked another passing train great fun in 3ft of water this one went just under 4lb. So one more chuck and then I must go I packed all my bits into the dinghy except the rod. then locked up the boat to give my last chuck as long as possible in the water. No train hit this time, but as I picked up the rod to reel in it felt a bit heavy and started pulling back. No bass this time but a nice fat flounder of 1.5lb. So for all you guys who haven't been able to get out TOUGH Colin

Cod less on boblin too. Bobi managed a Smalleyed ray to add to our species list. Colin

We also headed out to the car park to look for our first Cod this year and also to get Bobi her first Cod. Fishing was slow only Dogs and Pout. As the tide eased off I had a nice bite and had quite a tussle with something larger than a Pout or Dog. Bobi was ready with net as the leader came into view and there it was Cod. I got really excited cos this was a big fish Bobi did a great job with the net but it was touch and go that it would fit in. I had to put the rod down to help her lift it out, a fine fish of 26lb but this fish was like Nigle's empty and showing it's ribs. We came round on the tide getting bites from LSD's and more Pout. I had another bite developing and as it took line I lifted into another better fish. Bobi was there again with the net and this went straight in a nice plump 13lb 4oz Cod. Just as it hit the deck the anchor tripped and as it was getting close to 1400hrs we decided to haul in a head for home. Poor Bobi still hasn't had a Cod but they will still taste the same who ever caught them.

Fish also the Pipe fish in the same family. Colin Ps Bobi has been trying to get one for the last couple of years

You guys are lucky he brought them round to show me B***ard. I don't really mean it Nige well done and it was nice to see them in the flesh. Colin

Paul we are really sorry to hear this news. We know exactly how you are feeling and hearing about your theft brings it all back about ours. There just doesnt seem to be enough done to stop these low life's and nothing ever happens to them when they are caught. The marine police don't work at night how mad is that it's time there were night patrols out, with some one watching radar to track boat movement it's just to bloody easy. Hope you get things sorted quickly with your insurer. Once again Paul we feel for you. Colin and Bobi

Yeah well done and a big thank you to Rob and Charlie for all their hard work. Colin

Steady women and children on the site

Good luck to all if it does go ahead. Sorry but we won't be able to join in this weekend. Thanks to Rob and crew for all the hard work put in trying to get the open fished. Colin and Bobi

Happy birthday for yesterday Stu. Clocking up those years now eh mate? Colin and Bobi
