great white

Great Video Adam It does not look like you camera was cable tied to the boat hook. Really pleased that you invited me out for a days fishing on my boat and Wendy talked me into taking a day off when we arrived it was nice to find a friendly face, even if talking to Tom is hard on the VHF, its nice to have friends nearby. The day started well with a few cod, then we moved out to see if there were a few other species. On the tide we found a few pollack, including this one for Adam At slack tide the congers started to show, Ben had a good one on light gear After his Benny Allen moment for the video, he posed with his new PB [51lb] It was time for a great lunch and some of Adams home made Elderflower Champers Then a cooling dip for some of the crew As we set off to look for a few more cod we passed a RIB the crew had made plans for the hot weather and had fitted a parasol The fishing was not setting the world on fire , but what a great day to be mid channel Thanks for joining me guys

Super report thanks and some terrific fish by anyones standards. Just reward for all your efforts

Add Dan and I to thw list We are going out picnicing and swimming but no doubt we will have rods onboard

Well done Chris And thanks for the tip about the buoy Charlie

Sorry mate the wind has put us off, we sneaked Thursday off and went then instead. If we go on Sunday it will be a play day in the sunshine Charlie

Are these a series of comps, as they were once (you mention round two) Or a one off comp? Its a shame but there seems to be even less interest in comps now.

For underwater impact damage your insurance should cover it Good luck with your Claim, glad you got back safely

Nice one mate well done to you both Remember to enter jacobs fish for the junior comp and let wessex AT know

Hi mate That sounds like a plan, I was tempted yesterday. But decided to pick an easier plan Charlie

Hi guys No phone calls or texts so I decided to go alone again With the time of the tides no need to start at the crack of dawn, 0830 before I left the harbour A few mackerel in the tank, then anchor down Plenty of dogs around again, then a 10lb undulate A small bass then a very stroppy and large for the area tope of about 30lb, on light gear that one caused some problems with the other lines before chomping through the trace and another line next to the boat As the tide eased even more dogfish and a blonde ray about the same size as the undulate 1500 came around quick, then time to head in so that we could attend another great club BBQ this evening. A very busy and enjoyable day in the sunshine.

Thinking that I may go out and have a look for a few rays tomorrow I have not organised a crew and it may be late to do so, But if anyone fancies it give me a bell/text 07887 794716 Will be back in time to put the boat away and get to the BBQ Charlie
