Ok chaps, test results so far. ISAC comp on the beach was cancelled after 80 mins due to excessive weed pulling the rods over, no lazy lug used. Sunday at the WAS comp. Changed to a rover due to adverse weather conditions, most went wrassing at Cheyne, no lazy lug used. Monday night at the kiddies comp on the Pleasure Pier. Prior to the comp starting I popped a float out to see if any Gar were in evidence, plenty of small pollack and bream on gar strip. Ant Buick turned up with some of the fabled Lazy Lug, so I baited my float rig with a small worm. Smells like formaldehyde, but caught two small pollack and a bream in 5 minutes. Then set up a 3 hook comp rig and baited them all with lazy lug. Bites straight away and caught wrasse, pollack and pout. Then baited bottom hook with lug and other two with rag, pout on bottom hook. Middle hook with lug next drop, double shot of pout, bottom hook and middle hook.

 

Conclusion: It certainly works for the tiddlers on the pier. Whether it works for lager fish I dont know but I now have a tub to try from the boat. I am keeping an open mind at the moment. I will report when completed. BB

As we speak there are four local anglers trying these in the WAS shore comp today. I will keep you informed as to their success. BB.

A Very Happy Birthday To You. Have a great day. The BB,s

Try PURE in Poole, they are pretty good. BB

It will be a pleasure to give you a quote as long as you are not too far away Mike. BB

Sorry James, belated birthday wishes mate, busy, busy with YYS this week. BB,s

Well, Well. The old pond hopper has a birthday today. The very best of wishes to you me ol, chutney ferret. Hope you are having a great time in the states,AGAIN. Next comp is 20th October mate. Let Colin know early for a place. All the best, Billy, Cindy, Sam and Leah. xxxxxxx

Now now Rich, lets feel sorry for them, NOT

Thanks for that Martin, not a question of recording the fish, just a clarification. Thanks again, BB

Happy birthday overdraft, have a good one. The BB,s

Just a little point that I would like to have an administrator clear up for me. If a boat does commercial angling or charges for a trip, anglers are not allowed to weigh in fish. If this boat then takes out anglers as a private venture are fish allowed to be recorded? If that is the case then a non paying member on a chater boat should be allowed to record fish, would that be correct? BB

Panda Pop bottle half full of water, problem solved.

Took out Sam on Flamer Saturday, BIG MISTAKE. 8 species including 2 bull huss of 10lb and 11.5lb. One conger 10lb, bream, pout, mackerel, dogfish, pollack, and a starry smoothhound of 11.5 lb. Talk about the pupil sticking it up the teacher. BB

You are one sad mother Rich. Hope youre flight went OK mate. Will PM you. BB

I find it beneficial to replace the top eye with a Diamite anyway. These are very hard wearing, especially with braid. BB

Best wishes mate. Hope the old Marmite Miner (Rich) didnt bend your ear too much. Regards, BB

Belated Birthday wishes Sam, Sorry it was late. Hope you had a great day mate, REgards, The BB,s

Sammy and I will be fishing if he feels a bit better, he has a bug at the moment, fingers crossed. I will keep you informed. The BB,s

Hi newboy, Yes you will be able to replace the ring but it will be a little larger than the original. The rating of the rod will also go up a tad. BB

Mr Swain, How dare you cast aspertions on my character? It is purely for business reasons that I enter said establishment. I have the ring at home me old marmite miner, when do you want to collect or shall I run it up mate. PS I have your bits from WAC in my shed so less of the abuse. Truly yours, the honourable BB

Dont bodge it mate, as Rich says it is mega important. I have sorted you a 2mm tip ring. Rich is coming down to pick up some tackle so I will give it to him for you. Regards, BB

Howdy Doody Mate. Welcome, the BB,s

Looking forward to it Rich.

Rich, You old turncoat. A lot of the skill in that comp mate is down to the skipper, he needs to have a card or two up his sleeve. One fish was the difference between first and second last year. It is a good comp so enjoy. BB

Hi clive, sorry mate but we are bringing 2 teams from Weymouth (as we are defending champs from last year) but I will be the one in the stupid trousers so come and say hello mate. Good luck, BB
