Leicester Fisheagle

Favour individual rather than boat myself. Looks as if I will be struggling for crew versitile enough and may not be able to fish as the people I had in mind are not available. Any offers? Allan.

Thanks for the clarification Neal. The reason behind the question was that 3 Club Members who come out at different times and are familiar with the area and what is likely to be caught are unavailable (one wife's birthday, one own birthday and one hoping to sell his boat to someone coming up from London on Sunday). Allan.

As the number of species to count appears to be per boat rather than per individual would fish caught on my boat by a none club member count? Allan.

Tried several times to get you on the radio, could hear you talking to Brian,could perhaps have helped with anchor as only a few minutes away. Allan.

Sorry to see here go John. Knew you had sold it a few days ago but a surprise to see the empty birth yesterday. Hope you get lots of enjoyment out of her replacement. You know you will always be welcome on KOM if you fancy slumming it. We do do later starts sometimes now we are getting older. Allan.

Not sure if you are going on a berth at Cobbs. If it is F pontoon bank side mid to late afternoon should be fine. Around 8pm you will find very liitle water. Not sure what your air draft is, but if there are arches etc. you could do well to check the Bridge Opening times or avoid the high water around midday. If your on the stack or a trailor no probs. If you have to cancel because of the weather and can only make weekends, then the following weekend is when the Olympic Torch comes to Poole. Suspect it could be going over the New Bridge on Friday or Sat. but not absolutely certain as we spotted some "Expect Delays" signs when coming back over the Bridge. Didn't pay too much attention as given the current forcast and the fact that we are probably moving my son next weekend meant that it probably wouldn't bother me. Otherwise, may well see you at Cobbs. Allan.

Happy birthday Bill. Hope you managed to catch a few when you were in Norway. Allan.

Happy Birthday to you both. Have a great one.

Have amended the title of the thread to contain the date as well ( to make it easy to find ) 1) Neal Sturt 2] Charlie Chapman [weather permitting] 3) Danny Taylor [weather permitting] 4)Graham Nash (weather permitting wink.gif ) 5) Alun Jones 6) Allan Green and Frank Morris on KOM.

Saw Tom at the Rose and Crown a few days ago and he said you were confined to ship. Understand that plans are in place to make up lost time. Have a good one. Allan.

Hi Dave Sorry to see you are selling your boat. It is a while now since we last spoke in New Milton. The best of luck with the sale and you will always be welcome out on mine. Allan.

Kind of Magic will be out and probably going to the SW Banks or a ray mark and then trying a few other places possibly for a bass and making a full day of it. Will be listening on Ch6. Good luck to everyone who is out. Allan.

Dave-was that the one you caught using a rod you borrowed off me with one of my bait cages filled with my groundbait mix? Allan. LOL

1) Allan Green. Crew Dave Samuels and one other on Kind of Magic subject to weather and crew confirmation.

Looks like a great day commiserations on your lost fish some fantastic photos and memories. Allan.

Looking at the weather and with what was said at the Thursday Meeting I have advised my crew that is unlikely to take place as he was travelling down from Bedford. Unfortunately, I will not be out this weekend. Allan.

Ditto plus a few other items as well that I would not find locally. Website certainly worth a look at if you make your own rigs. Lots of the items are available elsewhere but its one of the few places where they are available together. Allan.

Well done on your species. We went round to the Dancing ledge area with Yann and Frank where we managed one bream all day. Numerous pouting (20plus) and around 25 dogs and one small conger. Tried the ebb and the flood and several different spots. Spoke to a Poole Charter off the ledge who was there for several hours before us. They had managed two dogs. Dave Lynes was also round there for at least several hours and said they had no bream.. Joined mid morning till mid afternoon by Rossi G with Graham and crew again we believe they had some dogs but no bream. Tried several spots on the run back but only pout and dogs Where are the bream? For anyone fishing the Dancing Ledge Area I have put a warning in another section. Allan.

Happy Birthday Dave, hope we can get you plenty of fish to christen your new rod on Thursday. Allan.

Well done Nigel. She looked great as she shot past. Frank commented on how clean the bottom of the hull looked as you did a 180 degree turn at close to warp speed! A superb new toy and first time out the species count looks impressive at this rate you will soon be back up there.

Will probably be out with Frank and Yann as crew for an early session finishing about 1 o'clock in the afternoon or before if it kicks up. Bream have come from both Southbourne and the Patch to Charters. Understand that some Mackies and Gars are also around and heard a report of a 23lb Turbot in a net last week about a mile out in the Bay so I am quite hopefull if the weather holds. Will listen out on Ch6. Allan.

Thanks for letting me know Dave. Have a good time in Wales. Hope we both get good weather. Allan.

That sounds great Mike. Is there an assumption that my species count will go up because of the crews fishing expertise or because I will be getting out more? You must be really fed up with the new bridge. Tried a trial tie up on the new mooring area a week or so ago to see what was involved, there were some potentially dangerous bits of metal that could cause damage and I would not liked to have tried it on my own with the tide running. Frank, who was crewing, virtually had to step out of the boat onto the basin wall fenders in order to get a mooring rope onto anything substantial which was one of the back posts that the floats slide up and down on. May have missed something, but no rings or bollards or obvious things to tie onto. An accident waiting to happen. Will exchange contact details at the next meeting. Allan.

Looks like I need to buy a bigger boat and supply free tackle and bait. Allan.

Start again Sunday 6th May - new date for species comp - if this drought ever goes away! 1) Neal Sturt 2)Allan Green on Kind of Magic with Bill (Ferret) and hopefully Dave Samuels.
