If you'd have said tomorrow evening id of been up for it but not tonight mate as busy. If you cant get crew and fancy going out tomorrow instead then let us know mate. Dom

Probably not how its suppose to be done but the way i do it is by clicking on 'My Profile' then clicking on to the forum from there. Been looking for pics of our new boat though Dan and i cant find it anywhere. Where are they? Dom

Cheers Paul appreciate that offer! I probably wont be going out now as having never used the boat i dont really want to christen her at night incase we have any probs, seeing as we dont have any GPS or VHF. Once we have these sorted well be out loads. If anyone needs crew for next wednesday night me know as i would appreciate a trip out. Dom

Well was planning to go out tonight on Gnasher but she is gone so am now staying on dry land. I need crew for next wednesday evening (30th) however as we dont have any electronics i was wondering if anyone who wants to join me on the maiden of 'DAT DAM BOAT' has a handheld VHF and GPS so we can navigate to and from marks etc. Am gaggin to get out so if anyone who has the gadgets and wants a trip on the new vessel could post here or PM me and we'll hopefully get something sorted. Or we could follow someone as a buddy boat and clip upto a buoy near someone else....any takers. Dom PS- or i could crew for you......

Sam, Sam, Sam, come on mate, pidgcateons= CAT AMONGST THE PIDGEONS.

Trust me fellas shes sweet, shes a Red Bay Fisher 18 (Irish boat) and absolutely immaculate. Cant wait to try her out now. Stainless Steve has been in excess of 12miles passed the needles with her and has had conger upto 85lb on her aswell. As Dan said its no Raider or Warrior but for

Well i was going to have a bash for the conger on wednesday evening after footy training but have now sold 'Gnasher' so that plans out the window! So wondered if anyone is going out wednesday night for a go at the conger or anything and needs crew. Can get to mudeford slip 8pm earliest and need to be back about 1am latest as work the next day.....The weather is suppose to be good with very light southerly's. If no takers ill either go mullet haulin or shore fishing for a bass or sole but ideally want another go at the conger. Dom

Gordon you have a PM. Dom

I have the urge to catch a conger on Gnasher but where is the closest and best place to catch conger out of Mudeford. Do they get caught off of X-Ray or is it best off the ledge. Do they get caught during the day or is it night only! Feel free to PM me any marks! Dom

Sydney radio - This is a corker Just imagine sitting in traffic on your way to work and hearing this. Many Sydney folks DID hear this on the FOX FM morning show in Sydney. The DJs play a game where they award winners great prizes. The game is called "Mate Match". The DJs call someone at work and ask if they are married or seriously involved with someone. If the contestant answers "yes", he or she is then asked 3 random yet highly personal questions. The person is also asked to divulge the name of their partner (with phone number) for verification. If their partner answers those same three questions correctly, they both win the prize. One particular game, however, several months ago made the Harbour City drop to its knees with laughter and is possibly the funniest thing you've heard yet. Anyway, here's how it all went down: DJ: "Hey! This is Ed on FOX-FM. Have you ever heard of 'Mate Match'?" Contestant: (laughing) "Yes, I have." DJ: "Great! Then you know we're giving away a trip to the Gold Coast if you win. What is your name? First only please." Contestant: "Brian." DJ: "Brian, are you married or what?" Brian: (laughing nervously) "Yes, I am married." DJ: "Thank you. Now, what is your wife's name? First only please." Brian: "Sara." DJ: "Is Sara at work, Brian?" Brian: "She is gonna kill me." DJ: "Stay with me here, Brian! Is she at work?" Brian: (laughing) "Yes, she's at work." DJ: "Okay, first question - when was the last time you had sex?" Brian: "About 8 o'clock this morning." DJ: "Atta boy, Brian." Brian: (laughing sheepishly) "Well..." DJ: "Question #2 - How long did it last?" Brian: "About 10 minutes." DJ: "Wow! You really want that trip, huh? No one would ever have said that if a trip wasn't at stake." Brian: "Yeah, that trip sure would be nice." DJ: "Okay. Final question. Where did you have sex at 8 o'clock this morning? Brian: (laughing hard) "I, ummm, I, well..." DJ: "This sounds good, Brian. Where was it at?" Brian: "Not that it was all that great, but her mum is staying with us for a couple of weeks..." DJ: "Uh huh..." Brian: "...and the Mother-In-Law was in the shower at the time." DJ: "Atta boy, Brian." Brian: "On the kitchen table." DJ: "Not that great?? But that is more adventure than the previous hundred. Give me your wife's work number and I'll call her up. You listen to this." [3 minutes of commercials follow. ] DJ: "Okay audience; let's call Sara, shall we?" (touch tones.....ringing....) Clerk: "Kinkos." DJ: "Hey, is Sara around there somewhere?" Clerk: "This is she." DJ: "Sara, this is Ed with FOX-FM. We are live on the air right now and I've been talking with Brian for a couple of hours now." Sara: (laughing) "A couple of hours?" DJ: "Well, a while now. He is on the line with us. Brian knows not to give any answers away or you'll lose. Sooooooo... do you know the rules of 'Mate Match'?" Sara: "No." DJ: "Good!" Brian: (laughing) Sara: (laughing) "Brian, what the hell are you up to?" Brian: (laughing) "Just answer his questions honestly, okay? Be completely honest." DJ: "Yeah yeah yeah. Sure. Now, I will ask you 3 questions, Sara. If your answers match Brian's answers, then the both of you will be off to the Gold Coast for 5 days on us. Sara: (laughing) "Yes." DJ: "Alright. When did you last have sex, Sara?" Sara: "Oh God, Brian....uh, this morning before Brian went to work." DJ: "What time?" Sara: "Around 8 this morning." DJ: "Very good. Next question. How long did it last?" Sara: "12, 15 minutes maybe." DJ: "Hmmmm. That's close enough. I am sure she is trying to protect his manhood. We've got one last question, Sara. You are one question away from a trip to the Gold Coast. Are you ready?" Sara: (laughing) "Yes." DJ: "Where did you have it?" Sara: "OH MY GOD, BRIAN!! You didn't tell them that did you?" Brian: "Just tell him, honey." DJ: "What is bothering you so much, Sara?" Sara: "Well..." DJ: Come on Sara..... where did you have it? Sara: "Up the ar$e....." After a long pause, the DJ said, "Folks, we need to take a station break" And the drivers of Sydney almost crashed their cars laughing

Why didnt the Lifeguard save the Hippy from from drowning? Cos he was too 'Far Out Man'.

2 piece rods for mullet......their the best ones Paul. Have you got a quiver tip rod or anything really light like that? Thats what you need to catch loads of mullet! Im sure if you ask Dan nicely he may have something you can use. An evening next week it is then! Dom

How bout a little match then????? One evening next week... Me, Dan, Rich The Big Gay Bear, Paul D (if your about), and anyone else whos up for it? Dommy

Me and Dan are out on Gnasher on Sunday morning for an early bash at some Bass.....the weather is looking good and the tides good for the 6am start. Wondering if anyone is going to be kind enough to PM me some marks and waypoints to assist! Cheers....hopefully. Dommy

Ive got to have a crack at this bass lark! Seems im missin out! I will be out a bit next week on 'Gnasher' as the missus is away on holiday so if anyone wants to show me how its done feel free to accompany me on gnasher or ill crew for you! Dom

I used to work at Loni's AC in New Milton and they had a Abu dealer who was good as gold, if there was ever any probs with their gear you could just take it back to the shop (Loni's AC) an they would replace it with another one and then would send this back to Abu to be fixed and presumably sold again elsewhere. Get in touch with Abu again and tell them whats happened, they should be able to point you in the right direction as to how to get this done free of charge! Dom

Cheers Mike, Youve just filled me with loadsa confidence.....

Me and Dan are thinking of doing a bit night fishing on 'Gnasher' starting in the next few weeks and wondered if anyone would fancy buddying us as we have never night fished off boats before. Dom

I would love to help but when i got my GPS the marks were already input into it so no idea. Sorry! Dom

A few top quality comments from the bestin the business!!!!! Subject: Footballers Clearly brains are not a requirement for football players. Here are a few quotes: 'My parents have been there for me, ever since I was about 7.' - David Beckham 'I would not be bothered if we lost every game as long as we won the league.' - Mark Viduka 'We lost because we didn't win.' - Ronaldo 'If you don't believe you can win, there is no point in getting out of bed at the end of the day.' - Neville Southall 'He's put on weight and I've lost it, and vice versa.' - Ronnie Whelan 'I was watching the Blackburngame on TV on Sunday when it flashed on the screen that George (Ndah) had scored in the first minute at Birmingham. My first reaction was to ring him up. Then I remembered he was out there playing.' - Ade Akinbiyi 'I can see the carrot at the end of the tunnel.' - Stuart Pearce 'Alex Ferguson is the best manager I've ever had at this level. Well, he's the only manager I've actually had at this level. But he's the best manager I've ever had.' - David Beckham 'I've had 14 bookings this season - 8 of which were my fault, but 7 of which were disputable.' - Paul Gascoigne 'I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.' - Alan Shearer 'I'd like to play for an Italian club, like Barcelona.' - Mark Draper 'You've got to believe that you're going to win, and I believe we'll win the World Cup until the final whistle blows and we're knocked out.' - Peter Shilton 'I faxed a transfer request to the club at the beginning of the week, but let me state that I don't want to leave Leicester.' - Stan Collymore 'Without being too harsh on David Beckham, he cost us the match.' - Ian Wright 'I'm as happy as I can be - but I have been happier.' - Ugo Ehiogu 'Leedsis a great club and it's been my home for years, even though I live in Middlesborough.' - Jonathan Woodgate 'I took a whack on my left ankle, but something told me it was my right.' - Lee Hendrie 'I couldn't settle in Italy- it was like living in a foreign country.' - Ian Rush 'Germanyare a very difficult team to play...they had 11 internationals out there today.' - Steve Lomas 'I always used to put my right boot on first, and then obviously my right sock.' - Barry Venison 'I definitely want Brooklynto be christened, but I don't know into what religion yet.' - David Beckham 'The Brazilians were South American, and the Ukranians will be more European.' - Phil Neville 'All that remains is for a few dots and commas to be crossed.' - Mitchell Thomas 'The opening ceremony was good, although I missed it.' - Graeme Le Saux 'One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.' - Alan Shearer 'I'd rather play in front of a full house than an empty crowd.' - - Johnny Giles 'I was surprised, but I always say nothing surprises me in football.' - Les Ferdinand 'It was like the ref had a brand new yellow card and wanted to see if it worked.' - Richard Rufus ' There's no in between - you're either good or bad. We were in between.' - Gary Lineker 'Sometimes in football you have to score goals.' - Thierry Henry Dommy

Decided on a trip out of Mudeford with my Mum as crew. What a crackin day with flat calm seas and no wind. Got to north X-RAY about 9am after waiting at the slip for about 20 mins as the queue was building rapid. Clipped up to the bouy and rigged up 2 rods each, the light rods set up for bream/other smallish fish, and the heavier rod set up for whole live macky's. Got the feathers out and first drop-5 macky's for the bait well-an hour later, still only 5 macky's for the bait well, where the hell have they got to? Stick on a live 10" macky and cast this 15yds off the back of the boat and leave it in the rod holder on freespool until something happens-an hour later after catchin loadsa bream to 2.8lb on my little rod the big rod bounces around and then the freespool kicks in and the fish screams about 10 yards of braid off the spool before i could get the rod out of the holder......hit into it and after a heaavy dogged scrap, another Thorny of just under 13lb graces the deck of Gnasher. Got the glove on and held it down to get the hook out, unfortunately my finger ends up in its mouth-like a bloody vice these jaws..couldnt get my finger out for sh1t for about 10 seconds until it eventually pops out with the glove still in its jaws. After a few pics on mums camera, its put back to live another day. First drop with the feathers and another string of 5 for the well. Back down with a lives. After about 2 hours of banging out endless bream(one of which stabs its fin into hand and it snaps off in my skin-have now got a poxy bream splinter) and LSDs one of which wraps my arm and a stray pout, the macky rod once again leaps into action whilst im bringing in a better bream on my small rod...hit into what i thoight was another thorny until i loose it. Reeling in a smashed up macky i near the back of the boat when a bull huss of about 10lb follows my macky right up to the surface where it the hits the bream i have on my little rod. My half munched macky was still dangling off the back of the boat and suddenly a Tope smashes into it 10' off the boat.....which broke my 40lb trace in a second. Over the next hour me and mum both get smashed up twice each so an upgrade in trace sees mum land the first of a few pack tope between us the smallest of them all bites me in the leg. Notheing big only up to low-mid doubles but lost a biggy which i just couldnt stop and it broke me up on 80lb trace afetr about 20 seconds. All in all a crackin day but got bitten by a tope, a thorny, wrapped by a doggy, and stabbed by a bream. I loved every bit of it tho. All the best, Dom

Well after all the info i got from you lot about fishing out of Lymington river, i hitched up the boat and got to the slip about 5:30pm. The River looked quite calm and i saw Vernon Everitts charter boat 'Stella' leaving the pontoon about 5 mins before we put our boat in....i was feelin confident.....until as i was cruising down the river towards the mouth i saw 'Stella' coming back in-i was a bit confused by this until i saw the solent. It was kicking up big time, so all we could do was sit just off the ferry channel and bang out a few small bass upto just under 1lb. In a nutshell, the fishing was crap and the weather was crap too....... Oh well hopefully it will improve for the weekend when ill be out again, if not the Barbel better watch out in the royalty cos Dommy's comin! All the best and cheers to everyone for the info....it will come in handy when the weathers good! Dom

Cheers fellas, Well ive no excuses for blanking now ....whats the best bait for stingers? If anyone else is about this evening geive us a buzz on the radio. Dom
