Ian, Are these a matching set for the undergarments you so kindly displayed to all in Alderney?

I can join you - if you still have a place

Well done Dave Good to see a few club members in the top 10 of the Poole Sea Angling Centre Bream Comp A good day's fishing on Court Jester - went round to Dancing Ledge, I think we were the first to arrive - but followed by a steady trickle of boats - both Club and Charter. We looked around for the fish on the sounder and having located them settled in. Plenty of Bream from the off - all Males and all around 2lb mark, occasionally a slightly bigger one. Once the tide increased to requiring 1lb of lead, we moved inshore a bit but only found small females - moved a couple of times to new spots but still couldn't find the big females! Plenty of by-catch too including a nice 6lb Bass to Stuie - shame it had to go back! - several Undulate Rays, a Spotted Ray and a couple of Mackerel. Thanks to Mal and Stuie for the company Neal - 2lb 8oz - (gave me 10th Place) Stuie - 2lb 5oz Mal - 2lb -1oz

Happy Birthday John Good to see you yesterday down at Cobbs

Results for the Comp Brad 8 Jacob 8 Chris 7 Charlie 6 Alfie 6 Kev 6 Greg 5 Mal 5 The rest of us need lessons! Extremely well done to the 2 juniors and thanks to all that took part

Thanks to you too Mal, a pleasant - but chilly day out. The fishing proved more challenging than expected but we caught a few - although mostly the ever present dogfish! We both went home with dinner - even though mine had been run over on the way to your boat! (a pheasant in case anyone was wondering!) I look forward to having you on Court Jester sometime soon.

Belated Birthday wishes Chris Fishing was more difficult than predicted....and colder! But a Thai meal afterwards sounds like the perfect antidote.
