See copy email below

WOW Am I glad Awol isn't in Braye harbour Martin

Are you a member of the NFSA yet? The federation really needs the support of ALL sea anglers after all it is our chosen pastime and we should all contribute to moulding its future. I have atached the most recent copy of their newsletter Tidelines Martin

Happy birthday Neal Have a good day tomorrow with Tom and tell us all about it, we are all in need of s fishy story fix Martin

Happy birthday Rob Martin

Duncan Can confirm Mike has moved your boat onto the holding pontoon and that she was alright yesterday lunchtime Martin

I have removed the attachement from your post You have a PM

Hi Steve and welcome to our clubs home on the net. As Mike F says probably the or at least one of the best small boat angling clubs in the country. If Carlsbeg did fishing clubs it wouldn't be half as good as this one We are definately a freindly lot and willingly give help and advice. If your interested in finding out more about boat angling and running a small boat then do consider joining the club. Membership certainly reduces the learning curve End of sales pitch Martin

Due to bad weather our new date for this competition is 16th December Watch this space for updated info as it comes in Martin

Guys thanks for clearing out your pm's Please do it regularly to save us the cost of either upgrading our package or cropping your pm's from the data base Good housekeeping saves money Martin

Kam Nothing to stop you sharing a good fish on here with us by posting in catch reports Martin

Correct - with the proviso they are still limited to 2 anglers You of course mean 12 anglers Paul Martin

There is nowhere in Poole where boats can be launched at reasonable cost. Baiter is the only half decent public slipway. We could of course use Cobbs but who wants to pay

This bylaw has been around for years but not fully enforced so why now? Well look at what sea anglers have been trying to achieve against the wishes of commercial fishermen, we were unsuccessful. In return I think commercials have had words in ears, in turn those ears have had words with ssfc who can do nothing other than enforce the bylaw they introduced even though it was ill thought out. Who's winning now! In the end no one will win as money talks and when all the fish are caught and theres nomore money to be earned by commercials or those that supply RSA's no one will care pessimistic view? nope - realist? maybe Has anybody had a proper answer as to why angling craft over 12 metres with a licence for 12 anglers were originally included in that bylaw? or indeed why a private craft over 12 metres with 2 or 3 anglers aboard is included? Certainly takes some working out and what makes my blood boil even more is its' another blatant waste of my hard earned taxes Martin

Duncan if thats the case they must like looking stupid in front of joe public At this rate they may need more staff just to read the emails Martin

Thanks Charlie Alec asked me to post this but I totally forgot. BTW mines been ordered for days Martin
