A slippery Eel Blake one for dad to remove.

Wooden spoon likely for my team, Italy look really good and a contender, long awaited.

Another one, give us all a chance. Well done.

Cup of tea in the wheelhouse looks like a good idea.

Belated birthday wishes Brian. Here's hoping for a better year.👍

Happy belated birthday Pete

Thanks everyone for your good wishes.👍

Happy birthday Nige🎂

Hey Trev get well soon.

Whelk pots or dare I say it nets for rays is a possibility.

Have a nice day Alan and Happy birthday.

My brother could not make the trip, so I did not return a catch report. I did have a small 2lb bass whilst sitting at anchor. Also, happy to report a good-sized blonde ray up our end of the bay which is nice to see.

Looking at the weather this morning I have no reason to Cancel, the weather is looking stable and slightly improving on Monday so not closing in or a small window. Please take part at your own discretion and do not put yourself at any risk or outside your comfort zone. I will enter M.Thomas and T .Thomas

Looking at the very changeable weather I am concerned by the SE direction on Sunday which turns the Swash into a nasty washing machine, Saturday things have improved however the sea conditions are likely to be lively from the preceding weather. I am veering towards setting another date so our members are safe and not likely to be uncomfortable in small boats. Of course non competition trips should go ahead at the skippers discretion. Do you all agree?

We the committee are looking into trying something different next year that will alleviate these weather interruptions and move away from specific dates for some comps. Chris Witheford is looking into all the variants and possible issues this might create. Hopefully the membership will accept the proposals for a smooth transition to a more inclusive and least disrupted yearly account of best fish results.

Currently Weather watching very changeable over the last few days, weather fronts moving fast dropping vast amounts of rain. Saturday and Sunday are not looking good this morning, hopefully it might improve. Keep watching. Please put your names down to gauge who would like to take part.

Happy birthday Captain.🎂

Kingfisher Chris W and Mal Thomas.

Thanks Jerry, seems doable on my weather apps as well. I will endeavour to take part.

We do get a little forgotten East of Poole😞 Shame about the weather yet again.

Enjoy a good vintage and BTW happy birthday🍷

Stuie you do realise your going to get some flippant hairdo pictures from Jim don't you.

I believe Chris and I both had males 1lb 12oz, we had plenty of bream lots in the 1lb 8oz bracket. Did not think we would even be in the reckoning so was not quick to record. Chris to confirm.

Y knot out tomorrow ch6 Actually did not make it off the pontoon engine would not start, mega frustrating after a big bill over Winter.
