Many happy returns Dommy you young wipper snapper you Have a great fishy week-end Martin

No such thing but experience and time spent afloat will certainly help, rod hours equals tuition/experience. I have not much advice to give on Christchurch ledge other than watch where others are fishing and watch where the pots are, both good giveaways Martin

Carrying on from Dans post commercial potters don't take to kindly to peeps tying up to their pot lines for obvious reasons. You may think it does not matter but beware it does to them and their boats are bigger than yours Martin

Paul Smith Skipper of Rapid Fisher II has 2 Spare Places left at a great price of

Adam Your welcome to a trip on AWOL Bream bashing, I actually love fishing for the little blighters. Keep an eye on the forum section "Boat Buddies" and shout up when anyone asks for crew Martin

When I purchased AWOL I took out insurance cover with Craftinsure our site sponsors. A year or so ago I had to make a

Paul's one of the better skippers...you think that was scarey, just wait until you go out with the rest of us. Welcome to the club, Andy. and I taught him nearly all he knows Not really as no one could teach someone that badly Welcome Andy Oh and sorry Paul your not at all that bad ......are you? Martin

Welcome to the club proper Adam and I hope you enjoy your membership Martin BTW I will update your forum status as soon as I recieve confirmation from Bob Now done!

I echo Charlies sentiments, a superb turnout with some fantastic fish Martin

Tom You could always get your boss to sponsor the site, that way we wouldn't have to spot your inadvertent adds Martin

I am in the same postition as Dave, would like to go if possible, just unable to commit just yet Martin

On Awol Dean 2lb 9oz Martin 2lb 7oz Charlie Annear ? Martin

Well done Alun looks like you are in the driving seat. And well done Graham for returning such a nice Bass never mind I'll get it next week BTW why not join the club proper? it doesn't cost a lot and the benefits are great. Charlie Annear, Dean and myself went out on Awol today. Fished both the club and Poole Dolphins open but not so lucky in either I'm afraid First drop for me and a small male bream that got me thinking yesss were in for a good day but not so good, a very slow day largest bream going to Dean at 2lb 9oz with me catching one at 2lb 7oz. Lost a few that felt decent fish but we will never know how big All in all a very pleasurable day afloat and I'm glad the weather held off to leave us in pleasant sunshine and bearable winds. Good to hear that PBSBAC had a good showing in the Poole Dolphins open comp results even if Awol didn't get on the score sheet plus a special mention for Jackie the only female scorer and a member of PBSBAC ....well done girl Martin

Questions have been asked about our competition rules so below is an extract No need to kill fish for our comp, just catch it weigh it and report it. Do Remember though that if entering the Dolphins comp you will need to go to the weigh in and have your fish weighed and recorded there. Hope that clarifies any questions Martin

Don't forget to enter the Dolphins open Bream comp tomorrow as well. You can fish both comps at the same time See you out there Martin

After having such a good time at last years meet Dean and I booked in this trip immediately is was talked about on WSF. Last year a few PBSBAC members showed interest in attending but none actually came but there was still about a dozen or so WSF boats from all over the country. This year

Late report from me due to being totally creamed and having to jump straight back into work along with catching up with to do

My final post in this thread to say that we are very pleased with the new engine After 20 hours of running in the engine is performing beautifully. My thanks to Mermaid Marine for getting us sorted in time for Alderney my only regret being I wish we had got to the end a little quicker. Also thanks to Brian and the team at Poole Marine Service for being so very accomodating with fitting in with our last minute timings. And thanks to all of you for your support and advice Martin

Several people have asked the question how do I embed full size photos in a post. Hopefully the following post will help you do that. To upload full size photos on this site you must first store your images on a hosting website. This can be Photobucket or similar or you can start your own gallery on this site by clicking the photo gallery button above and following the instructions there. After you have started your new topic and you get to the point where you want your picture to appear click on the IMG button above and to the left of the posting box. A new window will appear, in here you will need to put the URL (address) of your photo then click ok To find the URL of a picture open your picture in a new window or tab. Click on your photo to open it, right click the photo, a new box will open, click on properties for yet another new box to appear, highlight the URL (address) then copy it into your open IMG box, click ok and it should now be implanted in your post If when you click on the IMG button you get a message like �Error!
