Great day out mate ,good selection of fish between you both. Lovely pictures Paul ,i think the tall ship with the three masts is an ex navy training vessel which the sea cadets now use .

That's the second time I have pi$$ed myself tonight !

Yes Mark , 60hrs was too much this week , i can feel a long weekend coming

Superb day out mate , lovely pictures Paul. We really are lucky living in this area , , have a good day tomorrow , look forward to the report Ben

Here are some pictures from Lofty of the day And the winning fish including the mega mackerel

First of all thanks to those that took part in the comp today and apologies accepted from those that couldn

Southbourne looks like it will be ok tomorrow , i will be there at 0600 for 0630-0700 launch , same place as usual at the far eastern end of the prom , give me a shout on CH6 ,maver will be on the beach with some scales hopefully , see you there Ben

Martin ,would it be better if us kayakers fish the bass comp and postpone the kayak comp until later in the year on a more suitable date , dont want to upset anybody by winning three trophies in one day I am sure it wont stop any of us from fishing that day and as we havent had kayaks in club comps before it would be good to see how we get on against the boats, What do you reckon ,would it be easier that way

Alun the kayak comp is also this Sunday

For the kayak comp best specimen will win , ie 3lb bream will beat 4lb bass , you can enter the bass comp too if you like. Ben

Weather window for sunday looks good at the moment ,so fingers crossed it will be southbourne launching at 0700 till 1400 , hope everyone has read the rules and everything is clear , scales will be needed if you have them .

Lofty, just keeping an eye on the weather but after talking to Adam at this months meeting we will run the comp as club rules suggest in the competion talk section , so club waters and a nominated 7 hr period between any twelve hours on the day , two kayaks must be fishing together and result is done on honesty , I will post again on Saturday to decide where most of us will fish Sunday . Ben

Brilliant pictures Rob, thanks for posting them here. . .

Three of us made it out for a quick session which proved quite poor , i only picked up one mackerel but it was still a good evening to be on the water with my mates. Here are some pictures , we even stopped on the paddle back in to watch the fireworks at the quay click on image http://s562.photobucket.com/albums/ss61/seagypsy_album/?action=view

Thanks for posting the pics steve, it looks like you are having a nice break , it would be good to see a few fish on the yak before the end of the week . .

She was doo lally when i met her And just remember i still owe you a kick in the nuts before you say anything to her

Morning had broken to a beautiful sunny day so it was breakfast then down to the beach for 08.30 for the species hunt which was sponsored by whitewater consultancy ,they were giving away a fully kitted fishing kayak to the winner, with other prizes down to 4th place . After the short briefing by the organisers it was 10.00 when around 70 kayakers launched with rods to be out by 15.30. Paul(HB) and myself headed to the point of the bay which was on the boundary of our fishing area Within minutes of anchoring I was into this lovely little ballan Next up on the same mark was this bull huss pup I up anchored carefully as someone had drifted past trolling some feathers and got them caught on my anchor warp and proceeded to cut his line and paddle off

Saturday the 23rd of July was the date for this years Oxwich kayak fishing festival run by SWKA. Five members from pbsbac made the trip to the gower peninsula in south wales with a mission ,this was to promote the club and beat the welsh boys on there home ground. Paul (harness boy),Steve (maver) and myself travelled up on Thursday morning to set up camp while Paul(sprinter) and his son chris met up on Friday Friday morning arrived with heavy showers so our planned trip to oxwich for some practice made way for another chilled out day at the campsite with some alfresco cooking and dining and a delicious

Thanks Dave, I am currently helping with the organisation of this event ,what they need is a base to run the comp from as the outdoor education centre at hengistbury head which was going to be used is going to be to expensive , it looks like the scout camp at tuckton could be a possiblity, , any ideas from the locals at christchurch would be appreciated . Thanks Ben
