Is it that time of year already Martin

Piston Broke

He is certainly an egghead

So if the winner of the comp used this bait to lure his fish would that mean he was spawny

I am certainly up for a trip one day over the weekend. On the weather front both days are looking good with Sunday having the wind edge with Saturday having the sun edge. Lets hope the forecasts hold good. For me it will depend on family and the air show commitments will update later Martin

Well done on getting out lads and Well done to Lofty on clinching it. As ever thanks for a brilliant write up and photos Ben Me I didn't get out had to work in sons bathroom I sometimes hate being in the building trade Martin

Greg Glad to hear that Mrs Sea is at last being sorted and I truly hope that you will be glitch and crud free from now on. Re the open: you will not be short of marks to fish and I am sure we can find you some crew to keep you company ATB Martin

Not really my decision to make but I would say no. The dates have been set already so keep it simple and leave it as it is. Martin

Just to confirm and clarify it is both the Bass and Kayak comp this Sunday. Kayaks can enter both comps if they wish so long as they conform to the 2 kayak rule and of course the competition rules. This has happened due to circumstances with the earlier Kayak comp clashing with other events. Hopefully this won't happen in future years. Good luck and stay safe to all those fishing Martin

These are only eligible if you're fortunate enough to lasso one large enough to ride

Thanks for taking the time to find out Rob. I feel that as a club the correct decision was taken even though we weren't fully clued up on current regulations Well done all Martin

Well done on the retrieve Nigel and further to earlier posts I knew Ow Much was a decent fella, fair play to Humphrey for wathcing over you! Martin

My engine service costs are about

Nice report and great work if you can get it Tom Indiscretion? you! Martin

Steve nothing has changed on the forum. What has changed is your forum status. Did you pay this years membership that was due at the AGM in April? Your not marked on the spreadsheet as paid up so your status was changed about 2 months ago. This means you are unable to view the members only section If you have paid or you feel we have made an error please let Bob F and myself know so we can investigate further. If you have forgot to pay you will have to rejoin. This can be done in the usual ways Martin

Love the reports and echo what Dave (Pirky) says you are great ambassadeurs for our club and very entertaining in your posts Thanks Martin

Paul no problem the photos fit perfectly on my screen set at 1440 by 900 but also checked at 1280 by 1024 and they still fit perfectly Martin

It looks like this is where the PBSBAC kayak section takes off! Can't wait for part 2 Martin

Well done George a truly magnificent fish Martin

Busy time of year for me both socially and work but if the dates your looking at fit in then yes I would be interested Martin

Well done on the sale and good luck with your search for a replacement Martin

Paul if they paid their membership via paypal it will take a few days to filter through that they are members. They will though need to register on the forum seperately. As yet they are not registered on the forum, we do not do that for them (although can if help is needed) their membership will be made up on here to club members when confirmation comes through from Bob F or Paul D Hope that makes sense? Martin

The Metropolitan police, the best money can buy Heard this on Jack FM today and fell about in stitches, it's the simple things Martin
