Ark

Well what a weekend Thursday up with the larks, meeting with the other musketeers, we set off in a flat harbour This changed very quickly as we approached old Harry big white water!!! As we got to Durston head, boy it was bigger and bigger white water. Thinking we might turn back on no Dave said let's see what this baby can do. So off we go into submarine mode many wave over the top at 15 + knots we finally got mid channel, very bumpy trying to fish the wrecks. bumping along behind us was kingfisher fair play to the arvor she done the business. Anyway a few pollack and bait for later we hit the south banks, plenty of dogs and pollack I didn't think they had dogs over there believe me they do. That night tradition is Maris hall steak and beer o and cider mmm lovely So next day down to shole bank a bonus day as the forcast was bad we were going to stay ashore. 20 knots this time into some snotty Sea. We had a good few turbos best going 5 5 and a couple of keepers, the trip back up was pretty fast Dave loves that throttle 24 knots now, what a boat. More food and drinks, and a good laugh at the karaoke with more drinks The big day on the banks after a quick decision Dave calls the casqets well done skipper any way a slow start with a few small ones to Alan and Chris then they got bigger and bigger Dave first blood with a 16 lber and what a beauty proberly 5 inches thick I tryed to hit it off with net didn't work Then my turn fish on when she came aboard even heavier 18 + I couldn't repeat what Dave called me, I was one happy chappy Dave hit one more 13 + then I had a good bite well spotted Dave another double that dropped off at the back of the boat you can't have it all that's one for the next trip. We had many more turbos that went back . Well on the way in throttle happy Dave hit 25 + knots boy that boat shifts. Out for more food and drink, it's a hard life On the return trip we had some nice cod and pollock on a flat sea, I'm glad we pushed over on the Thursday as we had REEL big fish and a MAGIC trip . You have a cracking boat there she handles all weathers .Thanks to Dave for a fantastic trip and thanks to Chris and Alan who were great company Sorry it's a bit long Kev btw turbot for tea tonight

Why why do we book on a bank holiday, the weather is always sh#t 😂😂😂😂 Spent a quality night on the boat last night rocking and rolling pouring with rain all night ,reminded me of the time in Alderney when the wave hit the break water and bang on the floor, I must get Chris to make me some side rail to keep me in bed!!!!! I would be happy if it was the 4 th of July maybe some good bass about and maybe the new magic will be here😄😄😄😄 O well back home disappointed but safe, thanks to all that done the prep work better luck next time Kev I think I'll have a few these🍺🍺🍺🍺
