  1. And another for Northstar. Our broadband radar is brilliant and very detailed, less radiation hazard than a mobile phone too!
  2. Well it was pretty lumpy south of the island but we did manage a couple and I finally managed one! Tim Coombes 4lb7oz Oli Maingay 3lb0oz
  3. M3 it is then. See you out there!
  4. What are everyone's thoughts on the weather/wind forecast? Trying to make the decision whether or not to jump in the car for the 100 mile drive...
  5. 1) Court Jester - Neal + crew TBA 2) Alfresco - Charlie, Sam, Graham, Craig [Jon if Sam can not get weekend off] 3) Gastronaught - Alun and Rob 4) Kingfisher . Chris + crew 5) Dawn Raider - to be confirmed! 6) Sweet Chariot - Nick, Oli, Tim
  6. Thanks Martin Big help Rob!!!
  7. Thanks for that.
  8. Currently we're fuelling up at Parkstone Bay Marina but chatting with Neal yesterday I realised we have no idea if we're paying a fortune or getting a good deal (if there is such a thing on diesel at the moment!). I'm pretty sure we're paying 1.40+ per litre on a pump that apparently has the 60/40 split built in to the price. Does anyone know roughly what the current price at Corrals by the bridge is?
  9. Charlie if you're over banks I favour a Portland rig with about an 8 foot trace to a pearl or blue sidewinder or live joey. If you decide to head to the south IOW banks give me a shout. Cheers Oli
  10. Excellent photo, bet Daiwa could make a great advert with it
  11. Haha I've heard that Rob doesn't even need to leave his house these days - the bass come to him - certainly saves on fuel! Only one thing for it then, the well guarded mid channel bass banks to give me both options. Don't suppose anyone knows exactly where these might be and is willing help a friend in (desperate!) need pleeeease?
  12. You've all got me questioning myself now because I just know I'm going to go 30 miles and have a hard time in the tides on the wrecks and then hear stories of triple hookups of double figure bass! Decisions decisions. If we hadn't had such trouble finding bass last time it would be an easy one...
  13. Haha it was looking ok until you posted!! We'll be on the radio all day, give us a shout
  14. Will do Charlie, you going to head that way?
  15. Well it looks as though there could be some decent weather for the weekend (dare I say it)! After a disastrous bass session a few weeks ago at all of our usual hot spots off the IOW we're hoping to head further offshore this on Saturday, trying for some bass en route to the mid channel wrecks. Pretty big tides for the latter but hopefully we should still find some fish - has anyone been out there lately on the bigger tides? If anyone fancies buddying we're aiming to leave Parkstone Bay Marina at about 8.30am after fuelling up Fingers crossed! Oli & Nick
  16. Both done. Oli & Nick
  17. At the moment it doesn't look like Sweet Chariot will be making the trip either I'm sorry to say. The wind/weather just doesn't look like it'll be nice enough - it's meant to be pleasurable after all! Any plans for an alternate date if it doesn't happen? Oli
  18. Even better now - there's even sunshine!!!
  19. Hi Terry Not sure if you saw my previous post but as we have to leave on the Sunday we sadly won't be around for the dinner. Oli

  24. Date dependent I'm very keen. As before, don't anyone buy any bran for the rubby dubby, I've got a huge sack in the garage I'd be keen to see the back of...
