The handle doesn't match the bucket and it's not blue - other than that he would want a pair!!!

Charlie, Unless you get the perfect fit the floro leader can get damaged down the micro gap between perspex and bucket. Jim, Leftover makrolon from replacing Star Turns windscreen (yes I broke it!). I think you can get sheets of it \ similar from B&Q. Rob

Deal !

All, I have had various issues with dangled live baits on the way back up to start a drif again - no matter what they some how knit-one-pearl-on. For my last couple of trips out I took my new Live Bait Bucket and it worked really well (p.s. wait for silicone sealant to dry before use!!). I cut 2 squares of plastic and cut a groove halfway doen one and half up the other, cut some holes to ensure water levels out (not needed and fit is not too tight at bottom). Use sealant to 1. hold them in when filing over the side 2. stop line getting caught between the and the edge of teh bucket. Pics attached: Rob

Good effort Mark - enjoying the reports. Thinking about trying for plaie from one of my do-nuts!!! I have oars - might sort something!!!! Keep em coming! Rob

Great turn out - is the weather going to be good?

I don't suppose you can wire it up to mains! Did they fingerprint the engine? Do you have DataTAG? I have put it all over JoJo and her electronics. Rob

Shotgun license maybe? I have used swann kit at work and it seems pretty good and easy to use - PC based. Other than that the Bosch Divar kit is good too but prob cost nearly as much as your main engine! If you want the low down on the swann kit let me know. How about a security light so the can see what they are doing? Rob

PJ - is this from when you moved to the US?

Be interested to know how big (or prob small) this boat was. Can't be that big if 2 RNLI crew turned it over from in teh water!

Thanks Nige - I would be cross but you just saved me

Watch out, I hope to defend my title!

Another freak wave - this time closer to home!!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-11510916

Luckily I have set my Firefox so I only see Blur Blur Blur Yah Yah Yah Nah Nah Nah when Tom posts.

Dave - welcome - anypics of the restoration to show us? A portland rig with lures etc needs a moving tide and the boat to be on the drift - otherwise you need to drop the portland and add your own movement in to the lures. Pop along tonight to the club meeting and pick a few brains!!! Rob

I think Charlie C is on to something - being connected to a etring of pots then lifted by the way is going to have a huge effect of the boat. In the pic of it boken on the beach the arm from the winch is missing and she has broken in two along that line. I suspect without the pots attached it would have been lifted and twisted an dumped back down and survived.

Another "Anchovy" in the clutches of a PBSBAC member (sorry for teh pun!)!!

Great Tom - you have now ruined 2 shows in one go for me. Not seen either yet - do I need to now!!??

Dave can you trade in that Bluechart for the latest one? To save spending out on the full rrp?

I have watched episode 1 and 5 - ep 1 expires today so watch it quick!! Blue and Porgie fishing out of Milford Haven. The Subtitles requirement is a little annoying but OK - I will record the rest of the series via Freesat - starting tomorrow evening - as I will be somewhere else, with you lot! Rob
