*Moved! Maybe Derek can buy some new glasses if he sells her!

I thought they were through one of the water board. Found it: vacancies listed too: http://www.sembcorpbw.co.uk/net-control/vi...p?intNodeId=294

TRQ is a nice rod - the 20lb is quite heavy (we have had the 20lb "normal" and "braid" versions for prizes at the Open, donated by Mark at Alderney Angling). Dan Chapman has the 12lb braid which he uses for wrecking and it looks ace! The best one in my opinion is the "braid" version as it is a little thinner and softer action. Rob

Yes, but fit a second battery, fit the diode, and fit the voltage/surge protector. Need to be in water tight box as this is NOT marine grade or price!! The 2nd little battery really needs a over charge protection unit, and or solar panel to charge if not. Rob

I have mine in a box with all sorts of gizmos! It has a small LeadAcid battery incase connection to main battery disconnected. A large diode to stop the engine start pulling on this battery. A surge protector as I believe the lighting coil on my OUtboard once spiked (as they do) and popped something on the circuit board (easy replacment luckily!) - http://www.sourcingmap.com/12v-power-suppl...or-p-98360.html You communicate to the via a phone call and \ or text message. You can set it to alert you by sms if the unit moves 200yds from where you left it - handy, but remember to switch that feature off before you take the boat out, or you end up getting alerted you are out and about (this is switched off and on by txt message command). You can even wire in to the engine and send a command to open a relay to stop a fuel pump of similar and remotely disable the engine - i think that is a bit much of a risk to go wrong on a boat! When you txt it - it advises you of location coordinates, speed, direction ect and you get a link to a Google map showing the position! You can also ask it about battery voltage, gps and cellular signal strength. Ask me tonight and I'll show you the communications on my phone. As it uses any pay as you go sim, it costs up to 10p per text - depending on tariff and you must use it every 180 days or you can loose any credit on the account and \or sim is disabled. Ensure you get the right PAYG package - not a top up monthly one! Rob

I have one of these with a pay as you go sim in it:: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Realtime-GSM-GPR...=item2a22239f4a

Well done chaps! Rob

Probably nothing in their Brian! Empty case to satisfy the COP! As good as useless!! They were lucky to have another boat close and for it to be day time. Rob

Hope you can still enjoy a birthday drink! Rob

A cod is a whole lotta head! I think about 1/3 of the weight is fillet. Table here shows at as 36%, nearly correct! half way down page Table: "Physical composition and yields" http://www.fao.org/wairdocs/tan/x5911e/x5911e01.htm Rob

All the best Graham!

Blimey Dave - pull ya finger out! I am sure Allan will drop you on one this year! Tight lines. Rob

Well done Steve, great dangling! Rob

I don't think the Club recognises "Mini-Species" for records. Rob

You would finish in folklore! 187.5% so wipe the floor with the the other competitors, and set a new British Record, should you choose to kill a cracking beautiful record fish! Other than that, why do you ask? Rob Current British Record 12oz 11dms 360gms - 2005.

I'm sure it was nothing to do with the boozy night that had on saturday!!!

We should be called Poole Bay Dogfishing Club!!! I must say I was pleased with the scales we invested in! To have 3 LSD's 0.1oz between them all was close!!!!!! Rob

The Bull Huss is held by Steve Lane who was skipper on the day for FairLady. Darin Toomer the captor is to the left of Steve in the photo, facing the camera, well done that man! Rob

Unseen indeed, didn't even see them myself! Only joking! Thanks to all those that helped! And indeed took part! I almost makes the effort worth while! Rob

Thanks to all our sponsors, we had great support again and 67 anglers entered the comp. Including the cash prizes we had a prize table of approx just over

Nice to see so many live fish that were returned to fight again - except the conger that wouldn't stay in the bucket (Thanks for the help Sam C!). Rob

Correct Brian, results! I should still be sleeping! Got the boat out and home for 22:00, will post results etc sometime! Work today for me with PBSBAC Comittee meeting this evening, maybe I should take a day off afer the Open! R

Great day all round, well done! Rob

Well done James, thats how to do it!!!! I believe Nige had a 20 today too! Rob

If you are looking to crew tomorrow, put a post on asking if there is a space on anyone's boat!! We have just been down to Cobbs to launch ready for the early start, excited now!!! Rob
