Happy Birthday Chris Neal

Yes Rob, you are confusing it with a different competition...............

Interesting conditions - well done all that took part Results from those registering species caught - so far......... Dave Wilson 10 Mike Fox 7 George Fox 6 Mal Thomas 6 Kev Couzens 5 Martin Burt 4 Neal Sturt 3 Stuie Cooper 3 Chris Witheford 2 Dean Burt 2 Ian Simpson 2 Lester 1

All the forecasts I have checked suggest 10 Knots North Easterly - gusting 11 to 14 Knots - reducing during the day. The large tides probably mean its not worth going far offshore anyway So for a species dabble it's OK Have fun and stay safe Neal

So far, we have at least 4 people looking to crew, fish and add to Boats species counts! Mike Fox George Fox Neal Sturt Ian Simpson

Happy Birthday Jim

Next Sunday is your chance to improve your Boat species tally (except Nigel) The individual that catches the most species wins Book in below

I think the Travellers closed it the year before..... Amongst the tat, their are often bargains to be had - or you end up buying things you didn't know you needed or wanted and then never use!. You can often find cheap - but not out of date! antifoul and anodes and various cleaning products Some fishing tackle bargains - but beware of what you are buying. Usually loads of PBSBAC members wandering around - so a good social I will be going - so see you all there.

Happy Birthday Dean Neal

I am sure that their are any number of people that could be sent that absolutely no-one would miss and certainly not care if they can't come back. Prisons are full of them........ Proceeds of crime to pay for it - so self funding! Didn't we try it once with Australia sometime back - however the joke is now on them, better climate and they regularly thrash us at sports!

That'll teach you to poke your finger where it doesn't belong!!! and claiming a fish did it......................they have heard it all before.

Happy Birthday mate Have a good one

I trust you manage a visit or 2 to the tackle shops today as fishing is out! Before a well earned drink or two this evening! Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Ian I hope you manage to get lots and lots of fishing bits........... and have a beer or 3 as well Neal

Reminder Please can you return all trophies as soon as possible Please bring to next weeks meeting - February 5th - or by March 5th latest please. If you are unable to attend a club meeting please arrange with someone else who is, or get them to a Committee Member please Thanks Neal

All winners are requested to attend this years Presentation Evening to be held at Parkstone Yacht Club on Saturday 25th April Neal

Hi folks - it's that time of year again Can all last years Trophy winners please bring your Trophies to the next club meeting - or pass to someone else who is attending. Many thanks Neal

Lofty The format that is used is Ok - If individuals are so desperate to win that they resort to cheating. Then unless they are caught, named and shamed and then banned from all future competitions - there is not much else that can be done. The threat should be enough to deter anyone and should be put in the rules of entry. I am happy to provide Court Jester as a support Boat again Neal

Happy Birthday Dave Neal
