Happy Birthday Son, shame you had to work and the weather is carp. Never mind end of the month we will have a few beers. God I feel old now

Reminds me a little of Andrew Neil, to the point and pulls no punches, when's he coming back to our screens

Flat days tend to be best lol, only joking. Winds from the north around to south west are best offer the best chance of shelter. Winds from the east and south no shelter available in the bay. High pressure helps to flatten seas slightly. Wind against tide will create larger waves conversely wind with tide will see flatter seas. There's an old saying "when the wind blows from the east the fish feed least when the winds from the west the fish bite best. Probably a load of cobblers but who knows? Not sure if that answers your question but one thing is for sure you should look at the forecasts and ere on the side of caution. Always better to be sat at home wishing you had gone fishing rather than being out there wishing you were sat at home.

Pair of spoilt brats springs to mind

I haven't, didn't won't

The Elandess is back then. Chris you been trying for early Bream or was it a Ray trip?

Nigel its a quite time of year and a lot of members do their annual maintenance about now. My boat is on the hard a Cobbs being relaunched on the 17th March. As hooky says we monitor ch6. Call up any "Poole Bay Small Boats" if any members are out they should respond to you. See you out there

Who pulled the plug out Jim?

Hi FreeDinky and welcome to pbsbac. Quite a few of us keep our boats at Cobbs and I'm sure you will get to know who they are in time. What pontoon are you on or are you drystack< I have not had notification that you have paid up yet but have upgraded your forum status to that of club member so you will now have access to all areas. BTW my name is Martin, I am the club vice chair and forum admin and your name?

Happy birthday Roger

re inshore commercials using petrol benefits are, cheaper engines to buy, cheaper maintenance + I believe they can claim back fuel duty and vat

Nice can't wait to wet my bottom either

They need to get a proof reader that has left school

Good luck on your maiden voyage

Watched Dave's funeral online this morning, lots of touching tributes. Bye Bye Dave sleep tight my friend

Belated birthday wishes Toby, hope you had a great day

Same for me, my boat came from Jersey and was subject to the vat @ 20%
