It's a sh1t job but someone has to do it!

It has been suggested we should hold a Bream Comp this year, i look forward to seeing lots of entries.

All other competitions will be run on fish entered to the fish recorder over the year.
 
Tight lines between now and then, and i hope to get a good turnout weather permitting in May

Dave Evans with the Fish of the Year, sorry Dave can't resist, wearing a "nappy" as most of us would trying to land one that size!! I meant harness Dave. 😁 Well done Dave, and well deserved. 👋
 
Great to see all ten fish over 100% specimen, well done to all who recorded fish.  👏
 
 

Certainly is Jim....a really rare sighting down south coast !!

its not common on "our" coastlines, which is why it's causing such a stir.

Certainly is Jim....a really rare sighting down south coast !!

Ben and I met at the boat at 0730 
 
setting off out as the Sun sneaked through under the clouds, it was cold but not as bad as recent weather.
The sea state was lovely

We picked a spot and anchored up for the last of the flooding tide.
 
Whiting were plentiful but a little smaller than recent trips. and bigger baits were attracting a lot of congers.
 
Ben cooked us up some great sausage baps washed down with hot coffee, then we had a short move.
 
At last a better fish was hooked up and giving a good account of itself in the now quite strong ebb tide.

Ben who had been knackered all day struggled a bit with this one. But it was worth it for a very nice 16lb 8 Blonde.

As the tide eased a few dogfish and a lot more whiting and congers joined the fun.

1530 I took pity on Ben who was suffering from no sleep on Saturday night, we pulled the anchor to run in and clean down in daylight.
Not a bad trip for early in the year, we only took 8 keepers.

Boats out tomorrow so a nice weather window was to good to miss, J2, Norfolk Nick and Chris was feeling up to a trip which was great to see him back out, the plan was Spurdogs, well that didn't work!!! First drop J2 had a nice Blonde then a LSD, then everything went pretty quiet for probably a couple of hours. We had grumpy commercials fishing round us catching a LOT of Bass and good ones to. Even though the Bass ban was on we decided to have a couple of drifts, well after 2-3 drifts catching a couple a drift all around the 5lbs mark and putting them back i persuaded Chris to have my rod for a drift. " Get a 10lbs err please Chris, never had a double on this boat"  Next drift you got it Chris, had a stunning 10lbs 11oz fish on the deck!!!!!!!!!. Few more drifts and getting more depressed seeing the commercials catching huge numbers of really good fish all 5-10lbs all about to spawn, we decided on a move.
Back to the 50/50s where we had a really great couple of hours catching Whiting to 3lbs, Congers to 20lbs, and an early Smoothound. It got really hectic for a while with great banter and even some mickey taking!!!!!!
Quick run home filleted the Whiting through the 3.30 bridge, oh yes first catch of the day, and season, was a tern for J2 on a surface lure as daylight broke!. 
Great first trip with lots of craic.

Wishing all the PBSBAC family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
