  1. Please excuse my ignorance, but doesn't boats have one of those EPR thingy that send a distress signal when the boat goes down.
  2. Wish I live nearby, it's costing me a fortune keep sending back and forth the same reel for him to fix.
  3. Happy birthday, I'm sure there's a Bass Pro somewhere nearby you can pop in and choose your presents.
  4. Happy Birthday Jim. Wishing you a lovely looking garden
  5. Happy Birthday guys. May all your wishes come true.
  6. Easy, just announce to everyone here you are going for a cod trip and the dog fish will come flooding in.
  7. It's funny until you realise how close to the truth it really is......
  8. Depends what you're dressing up as, French Maid? Nurse? I was trying of picturing him in g-string and half cup bras.... but then I had second thought.....
  9. Hi, wonder if any can help. I have a very old pc which has been stored in the garage for the last 5 years, I was supposed to copy lots of old family photos fromit before we bin it but never got round to do it. This week I tried but on start up (after about 5 mins wait), the following message appears. Windows could not start because the following file is missing/corrupt. >> windows/system/vgaoem.fon You can attempt to repair this file by starting window setup using the original setup cdrom. Select 'r' at the first screen to repair. I tried putting the oringal xp disc in the d drive but can't find the first screen to select r. Anyone have any ideas please? Kam
  10. Some skippers/anglers use them below a feather over @ portland race for the bass. On certain tides they out fish plastic on portland rigs.
  11. We were out on Tuesday and saw the birds working off the 2nd bay from the lighthouse. Could be sprats?!

    Finance options

    If you are a nector card holder (sainsbury) then you can borrow upto 15k at 6.2%apr which I think you will find this is one of the cheapest rate on the market. However offer ends on in a couple of weeks.
  13. Sorry to hear about the loss. Have you look at motorcycle security like alpha dot or similar, the police can trace the parts back to its owner if recovered.

    Movember

    for some strange unknown reason you remind me of Ron Jeremy
  15. I bouight some sidewinder lures from ebay on Monday, I wanted 4 packs of 8" rhubard and custard in preparation for next year. Sidewinder luresHowever, the wrong colour were sent, when arrived on wedsnesday I emailed seller who replied not to worry, he will replace them the same day and as me to send the wrong one back and he will refundme the postage. To my surprise the lures arrived on friday, what a Nice bloke.
  16. From what I've heard fron skippers down weymouth, the trawler don't get many turbot because they swim infront of the net and don't get netted. However, from what other anglers were feeling, many who used to return fish don't anymore because they believe what they return will only be kept by some greedy anglers the next day.

    Solar energy

    Hi guys, looking for some advice regarding solar panels. Had a few quotes from different companies, some seem to give conflicting information. Here are the 2 questions I need answers; 1) one says invertor needs to be as close to the panels as possible otherwise it will lose current/power, one says it should be housed in a cool place like garage (Loft too hot in summer) because its working overtime to convert dc to ac. Any electricians? 2) one says they will lift the tiles and fit the brackets which the panels are fixed to, other says they will drill thru tiles, both mounting on the rafters for support. Which is better? Any roofers here? Many thanks in advance.
  19. Cochineal shampoo Tastey Yes, very tastey but what the hell can you do with one?

    Holy Mola!

    Well done, a great fish. Never seen one caught on rod and line, I did see one a few years back while on a chartered swimming pass the boat, it was the size of a dust bin lid, we too were too slow with the net. Apparently they are poisonous, not sure if it is true or not.

    42lb ling

    John Keggie who I have fished with both in Oban and in Poole has recently started fishing the Shetland. On his last trip, they caught a 42lb ling, 30+lb cods, 20+lb pollocks and coallies. As I am seriously looking to one of these trip as an alternative to Norway next year, so rang him up and spoke to him regarding booking one of these trip next June. It works out to be slightly cheaper (only just) than a Norway trip at about
  22. Not convinced, can't see any hole left by a spear anywhere on the fish.
  23. I swear it's a porno movie What a coincident that he had them placed the rod butt under their left armpit and have the reel so close to their chest that each wound up 'hit' something and made that bounced up and down And she screamed:' Oh yes... oh yes... oh yes....'
