Gnasher

Theres a seahog for sale (im 99% sure it was one anyway, might be a commadore) Its on the sea front road nr Hengisbury head. I had a look at her and she was beautiful. He wanted

one would of thought using a rod and reel would of been easier. Wouldnt fancy pulling in and winding up 60m of mono with 3lb of lead attached. Interesting though.

Paul, if the football is cancelled on Sunday then i will take Gnasher out. Where do you take the engine for a service and how much?

Its a shame that your getting rid of her Kam. She is a beautiful boat she does handle well. We tried our luck in her in terrible conditions, unsafe conditions really and she handled well considering the huge swell. Good luck selling her

I spoke to Patrick the Irish Turkey today, he told me that he cant wait for Christmas to come

Milford Shingle. Squid and lug clipped down and fished at distance at night. In front of the Cafe (needles eye i think) for codling, whiting and dogs. For loads of bights, avon beach in front of the car park for small whiting and rockling. Rag fishing close range

HELP!! Ive deleted my gallary avator pic and it wont let me put another one in(says im not authourised). Also everybody elses pics are removed. How do i fix this? I presume my settings are wrong

Paul, Many Thanks

cheers lads... very useful indeed. I know its all basic stuff 2 u lot, but im still a newby to boating, so expect daft questions. Im off to play in the bath now ...........with my duck.

Took Gnasher out for the first time since i had the engine done. Launched from Keyhaven, a beautiful little harbour, very shallow though. Had to jump out once as we grounded out in the 'boat channel'. Out through Hurst, expecting a small chop, flat calm as the light northerly flatterened the sea. Out towards the needles, over took a couple of the charter boats on the way and headed out to the cod grounds south of the rocks. Dropped down, and landed on the kennel again!!! Fed them non stop, then a change of plan to see if there were any whiting around. Baited feathers with maccy strips. Nothing by fishing them static, so jigged them off the bottom, tap tap, expecting a whiting i was suprised to find another LSD that had taken the top feather well off the bottom. 3 dogs later and my 1st whiting of the year came along. This continued as i was catching big whiting and pout every drop, just by jigging the feathers. Put lots back but kept a few whiting in the 2 to 3lb bracket. Started thinking of Toms comments about using the VHF correctly and not as a chat channel so i spent 10 mins listening to the charter skippers talking about what he got up to last night, then another 10mins talking about his Jam sandwiched that his missus had made him for Lunch!!!! Exciting lives these chaps have...... Decided to try a big bait, hopefully to out dog the dogs, 12 squid threaded on, expecting nothing, i turned to see the rod bent double in the rest as an angry fish was making off with the bait. Gutted soon after as it dropped the hook, could this of been my 1st cod? A conger was my bet though as the boat next to us had 7 by lunch. I also listened to reports of a few cod laned on the ledge, with a couple of double figure pollock, maybe i should of gone there instead, but thats for another day. At least the Whiting have arrived, and in big numbers.. Dan

I have been trying to understand when spring tides occure. Do we get these every month, how often, etc? Is there any useful sites that I can use that will help me determin what location i choose. I have checked out one web site and it says that 2morrows high is 1.7m. Is that a big tide a small tide or what? It aslo says that Hurst is 2.2m and xchurch entrance is 1.7m. why the difference when its only a few miles apart. Is tommorrows a big tide at the back of the island? The post all sounds a bit stupid and basic, but its stuff i need to know.

Nice one, and a cracking Huss. where were you fishing? Duncan's right, check out the spurs, a nastsy looking one by the dorsal that gives it away.

Im sure it would work. I read something that when out at the back of the island, you have more chance of a cod on the rod that is fished furthest down tide as it comes up the scent trail, so if your rod was positioned down tide of the ground bait then you could be on to something as the fish move up the tide. Personally, its far to much hassle on a freezing cold winters day. I suppose a sack on the anchore rope would be the easiest in very deep water though.

Welcome Dommy (He ismy brother and is joint owner of Gnasher). (hes even more ugly than me!!! and he smells of maccy, and he dosnt even fish much ) As you will no doubt find out as you at last have internet accsess that the sight is very helpfull, and there a great bunch. Keep posting for help, better than asking me, as you know i give duff info. Tight Lines & up the Spurs Big Bruv
