Maverick Martin

Andy Well done, did you record the fish with our fish recorder? Martin

Hi Bob Pay on the morning of the comp. Registration is at Baiter Slipway. At least one member of your crew will have to drive down and pay for all of you. To speed things up a little you could download and print registration forms from here. These could then be filled in prior to the day. Weigh in is also at Baiter with scales closing promptly at 5pm. ie if your not in the queue by 5pm you won't be permitted to weigh in. Martin

That's so daft it's got to be true

Terry Our trailaway commodore may pick up on this thread later and perhaps consider arranging something. Let us know in advance if your going to fish the November open so that we can sort you out some marks Martin

Terry At last you've found the best small boat A/C on the south coast Welcome to our clubhouse on the net. You are more than welcome. Join in and you will I'm sure over a period of time pick up some useful info. Whats the fishing like up your way? we may well decide to have a trailaway to your neck of the woods Enjoy Martin

Reg on this site has one Search members and pm him, I'm sure he could help Martin

I echo the above, get well soon lad Martin

Charlie Files probably to large, reduce the size and try again Martin

Rich Don't use yacht varnish cause it is a right pain to maintain. Oil will only last a matter of months in the sun drying out in super quick time. Use either Sadolin or Sikens two coats and thats it. If your not bothered to much about the colour I have some Rosewood Sadolin here that you can have. If you want it I'll bring it to the meeting Martin

Nice one Terry...have one for me Martin

There are lug beds here at Sandbanks and other more remote locations but it is much harder to come across than ragworm. Thats probably the only reason that rag is more popular in this area. The lug beds I know of is blow lug which I think is not as attractive as the black lug we read about. When I used to beach fish regularly I preffered lug but rarely used it as shops and most bait diggers didnt stock lug. I havent tried preserved or look alike worm baits but would assume if the scent is good that it would work. If you do try some let us know what its like Bob. Martin

Happy birthday Paul Hope you have a good day, put your feet up and savour the moment Martin

Eagle eyed we are Power selcetivity on fixed sets is available eitehr 5 or 25 watss. However fixed sets will always switch to 25 watts when sending on ch16 and may do so on other channels. Handhelds will do exactly what they say on the tin, max will be 5 watt but some are as low as 3 watt, all are 1 watt on low power. Fixed sets are 5 watt on low power and 25 watt on full power unless the tin says otherwise. First time I have seen a sub

More like reeeds rushes and mud we couldnt afford proper wood

To be fair it was a marginal kind of day. Keep on trying Jason it will be worth it.....I promise Martin

Back off tack...Bob which club do you belong to? Have been thinking for a while I must get back into this canoing/kayaking malarky. Used to be a safety odd bod when at school all those many years ago Martin

Back on tack.....Well done Zippy good to see the flatties are around,.......shame I havent the patience to fish for them Martin

Come to the meeting Mike......I'm sure Charlie will have some news Martin

Shame to see an old friend go but times move on. Is the new boat anything like this one for sale on here Martin

Well I have sent my response regarding this subject, has anyone else? If you havent and you want to, then send it to Senior Fisheries Officer, Commerce and Employment Dept, Raymond Falla House, PO Box 459, Longue Rue, St. Martins, Guernsey GY1 6AF. Martin

As Adam says the hardcore (trailer boaters not pornstars) turned up in Weymouth with not much confidence of having a full day afloat. Anyway we gave it a go and although a bit bumpy we managed a full if not tiring day afloat. Mavericks tally was not that respectable but we did have loads of doggies a fair few small bullhuss and a solitary baby blonde for Dave. Well done to the crew of Nipper for beating their way out to the shambles, you guys deserve a medal. Also to the crew of Blue Warrior (aka Nipples...I'll let Adam explain ) for their superb submariner training exercises (is that allowed mr safety officer) and Splashout for just being there Martin

She looks huge Fred. Are you building it yourselfe? if not give those messy builders a rollocking Martin

We shall be launching at 7am Martin

Terry I didnt get chance to follow up that one (forgot me piece of paper with the details on it) but made 2 good contacts who have succumbed to our clubs seductive ways even managed to get the Lowrance rep to fish the comp so their putting money in at both ends Martin Head of sales at pbsbac

No problem with you coming out on Maverick. It has been and still is a busy month fishing wise so perhaps we could do it one week end in October? If you let me know which week would suit you best we'll take it from there Martin
