Birthday greetings Mick - enjoy your day.

Best birthday greetings Nigel - have a good day.

Excellent report Charlie - many thanks for keeping all the details which no doubt helped a lot with your report writing.

Have a good day.

see earlier in the message Greg - premier inn Paignton South etc - rooms booked.

Started the session at the turning circle in the harbour where we had suicidal small bass and a good red mullet. Then to the castle where we moored up - a slow start but came good when the tide dropped and we had some stunning ballan action I managed three good ones - best 3lb 3 and Ken the better on at 3lb 11. Early finish as out with friends to the Crown for a good meal. A grand day out.

Planning a not early start trip out tomorrow with non-member Ken.

I hope you're having a good day.

8.30 am left Cobbs with Geoff Lambert - went to swash and drifterd for plaice on last of the flood and caught - nil Anchored on ray mark and pestered by small bream but caught dogs and a smoothie as well as spider crabs. Mackerel head fooled the bream and landed a double figure undulate on the downtider. Another bite on a bream skeleton and brought nothing to the surface but the skeleton. I saw a brown shape on the surface and dropped the skeleton into the water and a cuttlefish shot across the surface and latched onto it. Managed to net it ok. Thats two on successive Sundays. (All we need now is the cod) Anyway after a little while I noticed the uptide had a big slack line and after a tussle another double undulate came aboard - on a slightly straightened size 1 SWC. Tide eased and the wind got up a little so being whimpish we made back to Cobbs and after re-fuel and wash down joined the junior competition celebrations.

Planning to go ot tomorrow with club member Geoff Lambert. Hoping not to get in the way of the juniors.

Kept Looby 4 company off Old Harry and then a second mark further East - this was where I managed a couple of smalleyed rays - biggest 5lb 2oz. We had plenty of other species - dogs, straps a nice tope to Glen and a cuttlefish for me too, A lovely day out.

A 9.30 lift is scheduled

Evening James - i run a 5 metre Alaska and regularly fish outside the harbour - I don't venture out if the wind forecast is more than 12 knots but look for shelter in the harbour. Good luck.

Stuie & son Glen on Sea Dream - Sunday at the moment.
