As you say Rob what goes on tour stays on tour, all i can say is that Rob S definately was limping before the days fishing!

Your welcome Rob, fun day, good banter with other club members out there and a few fish which always helps!!! The kayaker certainly used up his 9 lives and had his luckiest pants ever on, your line throwing was spot on so a good joint effort. I hope the Turkish Bream was good!!! I still cannot believe you used my cucumber for a rig winder!!!!!!!!!!!!, i cannot say my thoughts on a family forum

Martin, you were very welcome and made a slow day entertaining, how ever much you tried to placate me I am afraid I still think the skipper of the charter boat was a total plonker and had no manners. Good to see Boblin out and Kodiak surfing in some snotty stuff to get a fish or two. Really lovely day out, let’s hope another weather window comes soon!

All the above comments are very valid, yes certainly younger members would no doubt Whatsapp more but at present we cannot attract them into the club, (i use it a lot). Have we now not got a FB page? Something i look at but very seldom post and dont want to know most of what is!! For techy members, would Instagram be better than You Tube??? I follow various fishing friends around the world on this, just short videos which pop up on your phone and most of the Poole charters post on Instagram which i am tuned into. The meeting may of been light on numbers but it has created good discussion, WELL DONE Lofty!! ps i am more unsociable than Graham above!

A sorry from me guys also, just annoyingly busy.

Hi guys, sorry to put a bit of a spanner in the works, we have used Certas for a number of years for home and agricultural services, they were great to start with but we went away from them 6 months ago as they became VERY uncompetitive, just keep checking round.

Mal it is very disappointing and quite soul destroying, things have definately slowed down this season for the bottom species especially, Bass, Bream have held there head up and a few Plaice, Tope, oh and the wrecking hasn't been bad so it's not all doom and gloom. Its just your favourites the Rays which seem to of been thin on the ground. I am sure the water temperature must be a lot of the reason we are seeing changes but i still dislike the trawlers as much as you!!!!!!! Especially as i was planning a Sole trip when the right weather happens.

Dale there are so many out there at the moment it seems, find a deep hole preferably, fresh Macks increase your chances hugely, drift or anchor, big circle hooks, i tend to flapper as you get a better scent trail, i hope to get out early doors tomorow and avoid Tope!!! Give me a shout and if we have been plaugued with them i will happily tell you where we were. Hope you have fun.

Well done for all your work Alan, unfortunately it doesn't show the eastern end of Poole Bay so presumably its still open to bottom trawlers.?

I believe there is a club member who could help , however i dont want to put him under pressure!!!

Bream Comp Results 1st Colin Gilthead Bream 1lbs 13oz 2nd Bobi Gilthead Bream 1lbs 6oz 3rd Sparky Black Bream 1lbs 3oz 4th Charlie Gilthead Bream 1lbs 1oz Congratulations Colin and everyone who entered and made it out on not an easy day weatherwise. Lets hope next year we might continue the Bream Comp and if we have interest add another to the list.

Well done everyone for getting out, it must of been like the M25 in the South Deep! I will leave results until this evening in case someone has yet to report. Really good to see some Gilts in reasonable numbers coming out, lets hope the commercials don't get wind of it.

Unfortunately due to various reasons Loobie 1V cannot fish either day. Please post your catches and dont forget to tell the fish recorder numbers, sizes and maybe even sex. Have a good Comp

As per usual the weather gods are playing silly games, rather than cancel, we will leave it to the discretion of the skippers as to whether they fish in or outside the harbour. Please do post which day you plan to fish so boats out and about can keep an eye out for each other. Tight lines

If i can make it i will be there.
