  1. Nice one Sean Hope that we all get lots of settled weather again this year, so we can all enjoy our boats.
  2. Anodes are supposed to be a bit knackered after a season, that's why they are known as sacrificial anodes. I thought [But have not researched to check] that its ally anodes for fresh water with occasional sea, and zinc for sea water. Told that by a Member of the Yacht Club who kept his boat outside his house in Christchurch
  3. I know a good boat that would look very smart in her new berth at Cobbs
  4. Not sure they paint the right Image, by using an image of a dead sea fish [Spurdog]
  5. Good luck with the sale PJ Look forward to hearing about the new one
  6. Nice one mate
  7. Had some lovely Thai curried Halibut at the weekend Caught on our trip to Norway. I caught it, but hardly "Free Fish" It was nice though, so I had better go back for some more in August
  8. Happy Birthday Martin Hope that you are having a good day, have a great evening.
  9. Good source is UK Hooks. They sell the heavy Mono in 10 metre coils I have found that mono seems to work quite well for tope traces if used with Circle hooks [Also available from UK Hooks] not the end of the world if the odd ones bites you off. For the bigger ones we still use short single strand wire biting ends and J hooks. Wire bought in the states is quite stiff. The stuff sourced through military much softer, Thought that I had run out a while ago, then when we moved in December found a couple of spools when packing up my loft, let me know if you want a few metres Alan/Rob.
  10. Just put that up on the notice board in my office. Must say that the four ladies seem to have taken it well.
  11. Was that for the heater Chris??
  12. Well done Bobbi Cleaned up in both competitions and well done Dave for helping consume all of those calories. Nice day to be out in the fresh air. Charlie
  13. Some good fish holding banks in that area that would be lost, it would also have an effect on areas uptide of the hole. We may need to give a Club response against this.
  14. Belated Birthday wishes guys Hope that you had a great time.
  15. Battle Ship grey, lovely Actually they do look good in that colour, I am sure she will be great.
  16. Oh go on then. Better add us to the list. Lol. Will have to check with the boys first then other crew. Charlie
  17. Welcome to the Club Chris I am sure you will enjoy your Membership. Charlie C
  18. Belated Birthday wishes guys Glad you had a good one Kevin.
  19. Free trip if you manage to catch a Cod. Allan. Not risking much there mate
  20. Great to be back afloat Thanks to Ian and Alan for great company and banter all day The fishing was on and off all day, explained a little by a small school of dolphins showing off as the tide eased in the afternoon. Thanks to Andy for organising the comp, and the food at the Liberal Club, it cannot be easy to run one when so few Cod are about. Maybe need to change the format again mate.

    Sunday

    The forecast that I have seen , looks a tad too windy this weekend I am chomping at the bit to get back afloat , but that looks more than a little doubtful.
  22. We had some on the wrecks in the summer Jim But cannot get a break in the weather to put to sea, so have not seen one this winter
