Good question Mal I'm in Lytchett Matravers so anyone coming down the A350 passes quite close by and I'd happy to buy beer, coffee or whatever in return for a lift please. Many thanks

Apologies I'm still not completely mobile yet - although I'm walking I'm not driving. Hopefully soon though. Have a good meeting everyone

Good news that you are back in the game. You made such a big investment last year that the experience is sure to pay off. We'll be watching with interest.

Apologies from me too - we have family visiting. Have a good one

Cracking fish there Jerry & crew. Well done!

I'm wondering what an adult panto entails but not sure I really need to know 😆 14 hrs is probably beyond my endurance these days - half a day seems about my limit Well done on getting out - its cold at the moment!

Similar outcome on Saturday on the edge of the spoil ground (but no porpoises 😞 ) Lots of school bass in the main channel but nothing sizeable. I did get a visit from the SIFCA fisheries patrol vessel and had a chat about size limits, close season etc but they seemed satisfied I knew the regs so no drama. Nice to see them out though

Hopefully give it a go tomorrow if I get a couple of things sorted today. Will head for 50:50 or Spoil ground.

I've registered Alan. If any members have specific points or questions they want to get across let me know and I'll do my best to deliver them Cheers Max

Happy belated birthday Mal. Hope you managed to get out in the beautiful weather

Have a good one Stuie 🍻

Great story and great pics. Well done Dave and crew!

Very clever!

Hi Pete I'd be pleased to have the SWR power meter kit off you if its still available. Thanks Max

Good summary Steve, thanks Its great that anglers are now being invited to share their views whereas in the past we were pretty much sidelined but I suspect there is a limited window of opportunity for us to establish our role as equal stakeholders. These fishery management plans are long term initiatives and many of the measures are still tentative because the effects are not really known yet. So if you want to see the draft of this one when it is published email http://fmp@marinemanagement.org.uk to register your interest

Yes I'm planning to attend too

Thanks Allan I can't see anything on the MMO site about the Broadstone one so have emailed them to see if I need to register. Regards Max

This was an interesting presentation. Allan's description is spot on so I wont bore you with a summary of the meeting but you can go to their website here which includes a trial set of videos. You will soon be able to register for on-line training to help in the programme. They promised to post a recording of the session on the AT site. Cheers all

2 flounders caught in Holes bay but by a seal unfortunately (sorry for pic quality) I was biteless until dusk when a few schoolies showed up but it was a lovely day - quite warm in the sunshine

Planning to get out in the harbour if I can get any worm

Thanks Allan Registered

Sounds good - here's to another year 🍻

Thanks Stuie. The chap who runs it has always been helpful so I'll probably get them there and ask his advice.
