Welcome to the best boat fishing club in the South (probably the whole country).

But Sam, who wants to take a photo of you holding a large onion sack?

Same here on Christchurch Ledge, we were on a chartered and didn't get any bream and other charters around only caught a few, so a poor day overall. Lets hope the 22 is much better.

Don't thank me, thank the millions of spam and useless emails flying across the internet everyday that people forward as a matter of habit.........

You need to change it with more than 50% left on it. Yes it does still work with less than 50%, but it's a small price to pay when conparing other metal on the outboard.....

When you use circle, you shouldn't/doesn't need to strike, the fish is more often than not hook thenselves. With normal hooks you simply lift into the fish as bream like to mouth their food before swallowing.

Good on ya Jack. A little snag, you've got to catch them before you can release them.......

Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm stupid." That way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It would be like, "Excuse me... oops, never mind. Didn't see your sign." It's like before my wife and I moved. Our house was full of boxes and there was a moving van in our driveway. My neighbour comes over and says "Hey, you moving?" "Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or twice a week to see how many boxes it takes. Here's your sign." A couple of months ago I went fishing with a buddy of mine, we pulled his boat into the ramp, I lifted up this big net full of Flounder and this idiot on the ramp goes, "Hey, you catch all them fish?" "Nope. Talked 'em into giving up. Here's your sign." I was watching one of those animal shows on the Discovery Channel. There was a guy inventing a shark bite suit. And there's only one way to test it. "Alright Jimmy, you got that shark suit on, it looks good... They want you to jump into this pool of sharks, and you tell us if it hurts when they bite you." "Well, all right, but hold my sign. I don't wanna lose it". Last time I had a flat tire, I pulled my car into a gas station. The attendant walks out, looks at my car, looks at me, and I SWEAR he said, "Tire go flat?" I couldn't resist. I said, "Nope. I was driving around and those other three just swelled up on me. Here's your sign." We were trying to sell our car about a year ago. A guy came over to the house and drove the car around for about 45 minutes. We get back to the house, he gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the exhaust pipe, then says, "$hit, that's hot!" See? If he'd been wearing his sign, I could have stopped him. I learned to drive an 18 wheeler in my days of adventure. Wouldn't you know it, I misjudged the height of a bridge. Should've been wearing a sign I guess. The truck got stuck and I couldn't get it out no matter how I tried. I radioed in for help and eventually a local cop shows up to take the report. He went through his basic questioning. Ok. No problem. I thought for sure he was clear of needing a sign... until he asked "So. Is your truck stuck?" I couldn't help myself! I looked at him, looked back at the rig and then back to him and said "No. I'm delivering a bridge... Here's your sign." I stayed late at work one night and a co-worker looked at me and said "Are you still here?" I replied, "No. I left about 10 minutes ago. Here's your sign." Anybody you know need a sign today?

Saw him twice at Baiters, once was the cod comp last year and can't remember the other one, both times he was launching among members boats, hence I thought he was a member.

Terry: get them to trailer it down on their return match, save yourself a long trip..... . I think there's another warrior with the name of stingray in the club already. Anyone clarify this? Martin, my son has one of those in the bathroom your are more than welcome to borrow it....

Adam has 2x 25l tanks.

hehehe....

I'm not greedy, a pair of either D or E will do me......

It's certainly turns heads.... Is it a steel hull?

Depending what trailer and braking system your trailer has, wheel hubs might not get hot. On my trailer, I don't have an independent or electric brake like some large caravans/trailers do. The only brake on it is the hand brake which doubles up as an emergency brake shall the trailer be detached from the car while towing, the hitch wire pull/engage the handbrake before snapping, slowing and (hopefully) stopping the trailer before it crosses the dual carriageway or overtakes you . If your trailer hasn't got a seperate braking system, and the hubs get very hot, you have bearing problem. To cheak if your brake work, park on level ground and with a couple of blokes, try pushing it while the handbrake is on, if it moves, your brake needs adjusting.

May be you should rename the place Aladdin's Cave.....

Hermit crabs are getting difficult to come by, as many whelks (shell) are harvested from the sea and once extracted, the shells are crushed and burnt to make compost and other things. The number of available shell for hermit to move up are limited. Not to mention when we use hermit, we tend to smash the shell, further limiting the number of shell in the sea.

The bream seems a lot darker in colour than those we caught 2 weeks ago. Nice fish.

I don't know Portsmouth that well, is it the hydrofoil ferry terminal next to the South sea paerk/Clarence pier?

Give me a shout if you are decided on a trailaway to the east, I might bring Sweet Honey down.

So you go out on a easterly a lot then .......

The forecast has moved forward but is now forecasting a force 11 on Friday. Portland Bill 48 hours What does a force 11 look like?

I thought it was a mistake by Metcheck, they forecast (upto) force 10 wind till early Saturday morning for Portland.

Actually what does a tope look like? DOes it has a funny looking nose? Sort of different colour to the rest of the head, kinda transparent looking?
