Fingers crossed mate! You wont get a newer engine to do the crossing with! If it helps at all (prob not) but Salterns / PMS are due to replace a trim sender on ours next week - if they are getting tight, we would be happy to wait until we get back and let you take their time for yours? Adam

The fish in the picture is a ballan - 100% Corkwings are common around here, but seldom caught - similar for Rock Cooks - I see hundreds when diving, but have caught only 1 or 2 in the years Ive been fishing.

Andy, Are you still doing these? Could you bring one to a meeting? Adam

Bless - good on you!

If youve been out today and fished the comp - please use this form http://www.pbsbac.co.uk/score.xls to submit your catch results and email to me at: adam. franklin@ wosleley.co .uk or ring me on 01747 8518 29 and I'll take it by phone. Cheers Adam PS: Hoep you all did better than we did!

Surely not....... what from the Marie Hall?? Do you trust me with a 8' dinghy after 10 pints of guiness!?

Yep I'll have one and a small O/B to power it. I think Neil has one too.

14 days to go! Forecast now available - the countdown starts! http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/14days.asp?zipcode=poole

Sorry Bob, didnt check you were free. Space on JV for two if anyone wants a trip?

1.) Alun J 2.) Gordon M 3.) Charlie C 4.) Dan C 5.) Adam F 6.) Bob F 7.) Gordon H 8.) Chris G

So it is!! Bad admin - sorry! In that case - go out bag a load of different species and then report them - even easier!!

This Sunday is the start of the PBSBAC comp calender. The format for Sunday is species hunt, so simply go out, bag a load of different species and report them to me - easy! As per the club rules, please register here, by phone, in person or carrier pigeon if you want to fish! 1.) Alun J 2.) Gordon M 3.) Charlie C 4.) Dan C

Thanks Neil - frankly if your going you'll want these! I'll print off a handful and laminate them for the skippers.

Can someone bring charts as mine are on the boat. The idea is to have a chat around leaving times, agendas and where and what to fish for, buddy boats etc - to be honest it's more for the boats who havent been over before so they know what to expect. ' Tom B in Arvor shocker!!!' Never thought I'd see the day Tom, thought you were a Jeanneau though and through....

On JV mate. Will let you know.

7pm - Bakers Arms it is then http://www.vintageinn.co.uk/thebakersarmspoole/ I wish we were going next week - the weather looks cracking!! Which also worries me, I'd rather get the windy stuff out of the way now! BTW - Plan B for me will be moving the trip 1 or 2 weeks and setting off with the same plans. Worth bearing in mind....

Will see if can get a pink pass and join you Charlie. 50/50 at the mo.... been canning the brownie points lately!

Adam PS; Anyone who has any specific Q's - drop me a line on 07 957 829 902

Oli, We will be leaving from Parkstone too and have a similar sized boat - Joint Venture - Aquafish23 - happy to buddy up with you as much as possible. We will have 3 onboard and will cruise up to 24 knots if its flat and as slow as is comfortable if its bumpy. The worst I'd want is a F4/5 SE as others have mentioned - even then I'd want an improving forecast - there is always another weekend. We are aiming to leave the marina about 6-6.30am. I'm staying onboard, the others are either camping or have a B&B. The B&B's vary - some will sting you if you cancel, others are sympathitic - have a ring round - but this late you may be limited - have a look at the camping option if not? Looking forward to it! Adam

He makes a habit of getting lifts back in by the big orange boat! Sorry mate only messin - hope it aint serious and all ended well?

Good signs chaps! http://www.alderneyangling.com/latestreports.htm
