great white

Not sure why but it sounds like there is a shortage/ban I was offered some yesterday in very small packs at £2.75 ea. Which seems a bit pricey for ten. Charlie

Well done neal Thanks for letting us know I was going to miss tomorrow. But will try to make the next date

Sorry dave I have been away since the trip I have itfor you at home Charlie

Did not need the alarm clock again [What a surprise] Lets GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Tight lines all Charlie Oh and Ben No Garlic on your breakfast mate LOL

Happy Birthday too Dave And thanks all for your kind wishes Hope to see many of you 60 odd miles south of here at the weekend Charlie

I bought the hooks for these and some special ones for Gummy macks from UK hooks

http://www.planetseafishing.com/tutorials/read/diy-assist-hooks/ have a look there Adam it also tells you how to make them, but the hooks alone cost more than what Trev bought his for

If you are uptiding you may want to look at the one with casting brakes

Well done Steve and all the Hardy anglers and friends

These what Adam?

All depends on your budget Chris We love the Kensaki range of rods, and started using the 12-20 one when pollack fishing with an Abu 7000. Like Adam I now use Avets instead of the Abu's, Mainly due to the smooth lever drag and the faster retrieve.

well its not perfect, but could still go either way. Same as always at this stage, we should have a better idea by Tue

Well done Brian The fish have been delaying their arrival while your boat was OOA. Lets hope that they arrive soon.

Well Done I thought 8 Club boats charging around the channel Islands was exciting Not sure I fancy 22 miles in a Kayak

How sad you are Rob [i made mine from Octopus hooks and Faultless hooks with various colors of shrink tube ] but at least I did not take pictures of them Adam I have an old first aid pouch, that holds plenty of mine, its much bigger and tougher than a rig wallet and is heavy when full. But it keeps the sharps safe.

What time folks?

How do others feel about gathering at Chris's work Mon or Tue evening?? I can not do Wed , its my Birthday I am sure he will put the kettle on, and we should have an idea on weather by then

I Still like sleeping onboard especially if we need an early start and can get the crew onboard [Hint Hint] are we getting together somewhere to discuss and plan prior to the trip or just doing our own organising? If we are going early on Friday I will be tendering my apologies and missing the meeting on Thursday

You is just getting posh Mr Franklin

Can you put up a picture of the front of your boat we could better advise on a suitable method. On alfresco we use a method that would not be as safe on a smaller boat, so it would be better to advise once we know what you have fitted.
