Now that I use the tablet more than my PC at home, I am thinking of putting some nav software on it I use Navionics gold on the boat Has anyone got or used the android app on their phone or tablet If so is it any good and how do you transfer the information? My phone is a samsung galaxy S3 And the tablet a Samsung galaxy note 10.1 Cheers Charlie

Decided to pass on Sunday I will be keen to know what the sea state is like as I am taking the lads from work out on Monday PM Tight lines guys Charlie

We use Karl at work Good engineer and nice guy.

Looks like it has had to be completly watered down to get it past the power of the commercial sector. Bit like the Bass MLS increase, all seemed well, but someone in power needed the balls to push it through Sad Well much more than that, its F****ing annoying.

Not sure how But something has to be done about it

What happened to the one south of Portland? And does anyone know what this means we can or can not do in the area around Poole rocks.?

Well Done Alfie and Dean

Was it a large blue barrel??

I decided to avoid the car park and the deeper water marks due to the tide We enjoyed a good day fishing in 90ft, lots of dogs and quite a few whiting and conger. I managed a Small eyed ray of 5lb 10oz Will had a couple of really good fish giving him some serious stick, before they managed to get off his pennel hooks in mid water. We can never be sure what that was. Lots of marks on the sounder mid water, but as the whiting had sprats in them I expect they were the cause No winners for us today, but no dramas ether Nice day out there today.

Hi And welcome to the Club Tomorrow could be a good day to be out We h ave a comp on, it is for three species, cod, ray and flatty So wherever you go fishing you would have a chance to target at least one Plus a lot of us will be out and listening on vhf channel 6 See on the competition forum for more info if you fancy it Tight lines Charlie

Tight lines mate Look forward to hearing how you get on. Charlie

Book us in for that one i will take Alfresco out for a run, crew TBC Fingers crossed for the weather.

There was plenty of wind and waves out there today Not that Manta Ray was going to let it spoil our day, what a great boat she is she does you proud Al. Not sure that I would have been so comfy on Alfresco south of the island today. Thanks for a great day mate, Sam and I really enjoyed cod fishing with you and the guys today. 2 cod from the 15 or so weighed in. While we did not win, that was certainly not down to any lack of effort First fish to the codmaster weighed 9lb 10oz Well done Nigel, 9th place. The second came to me later in the day and weighed in at 8lb 15oz After a little assistance from Paul Dore, who was tangled with my line and did most of the winding in. I was very pleased to see this fish Hit the net. At the weigh it was 11th and worth a few nice pieces of terminal tackle. Charlie

When Dan hooked his big porgie, 4 of us were fishing a rod each. In a way we were lucky that on its first run dans braid cut through mine and wills lines, which meant we could quickly buoy off the anchor while gordon wound in. I have a small buoy permanently tied on the inner end of my anchor warp, it stays in the bottom of the rope locker. This buoy does not pass through the alderney ring that we use. So all we have to do is undo the belay on the cleat and chuck the line overboard, start the engine and chase the fish. That tip may help others. But I think that I have only had to buoy an anchor about three or four times in the past twenty years, of fishing for specimen fish from my own boat.

We are fishing the Loni comp that is still on. No doubt Tomo will have a radio on Good lock guys stay safe Charlie

We all have a few theories about these fish that run hard and spool anglers If it was earlier in the year a shark would be the top choice At this time of year I start to think about the barn door skate that used to be caught south of the island As you say it would be great to get a closer look at one of these beasts Sorry to hear about the windows on your boat mate, if the culprit is found perhaps someone could drop him off by the dolphin bank to feed the big fish Hope to see you out there soon Charlie

The boys and I have been invited to join a Club crew to fish the Loni comp on Manta Ray Its on the same day, so we can fish both Please add Manta Ray, Tomo, Paul D, PJ, Nigel plus 1, Sam Dan and I
