    baiters slipway

    thanks for your responce guys, just itching to get out on the water now,once gareth at cobbs quay, marinautique, has sorted the carbs on my mercury,after being laid up for 18 months by the previous owner he said the carbs had varnished?,ive only had one go on it since i bought it,and it ran badly,so i hope gareth can sort it. maybe for next weekend fingers crossed,was hoping for this weekend but it wasnt to be.

    baiters slipway

    hi gary,the launch will be ok,im gona need practice with the retrieve, esp if its a bit windy or choppy,ive got the parking/slipway permit already,i dont yet have the harbour dues permit,speaking to poeple on the slip some pay the dues others dont bother? i havnt yet seen any small fishing boats on the slip to get a few tips on the retrieve. mark
  7. when or how often do the council clear the sand from baiters slip?i was just walking the dog this morning and saw one boat and a jetski realy struggling on launch and retrieve through the deep sand near the top of the slip.

  12. by 11miles i meant that was the distance im guessing to the needles?,or whats the fishing like by old harry rock?
  13. do any of you guys drift or anchor up in the harbour fishing or is there not much to catch,or how far out from the chain ferry do you go,i wonder if 11 or so miles is too far for a warrior 165.mark
  14. ok maybe see you out there im only learning at the moment,ive bought a warrior 165 with a 50hp mercury,so if its quite calm i might venture past the chain ferry and follow what the other fishers do.Mark
