  1. What reason did they give for moving you on? Terry.
  2. Quite happy to join in, date dependent. Terry.
  3. We can only hope that this doesn't take as long as everything else being considered by the Government. Terry.
  4. Quoted from another post: Before I ask a non club member, would anyone like a ride and take part in the comp. Send me a pm if interested. Terry.

    Equally, Octopeds, yum,yum! Terry.
  7. This is the basis of my crab pasta that my daughter so adores. Terry.
  8. I was out with a local friend and what a glorious day to be on the water. I decided to give The Bridge a go first as my friend's wife likes bass. A very slow drift speed and dirty water seemed a bad combination and, predictably, nothing stirred. Then a move to the Ledge to try for bream and, again predictably, some bar steward was on 'my' usually dependable mark, we tried nearby but, annoyingly, his catch rate exceeded ours. However, we caught bream and kept a few for home consumption. Doggies outnumbered the bream by about 3:1. Plaice then beckoned but, again with the lack of movement, .3-.4kn, and the decidedly murky water, nothing much doing and we only added a couple of small gurnard, a doggie and slipper limpets to the tally; where have they all come from? Having got bored, we decided to have a little cruise and went to socialise with Gummage (Martin) who appeared to have been having a 'Gummage' sort of day. Nice to catch up though. On the way back in, we saw Allan on Fisheagle waiting for the Town bridge, no such problem for me, not having radar does pay off sometimes, I hope he had a better day. I was really surprised back in the marina upon checking my log for the day to find we had done 49 nautical miles, surprising how it adds up. I really must do better at coordinating good weather with decent tides, that's twice now. Terry.
  9. Sorry. Terry.
  10. Is this any good? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/194883058663?chn=ps&_ul=GB&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=710-134428-41853-0&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=194883058663&targetid=2406300041925&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=9191608&poi=&campaignid=22321085244&mkgroupid=175260283623&rlsatarget=pla-2406300041925&abcId=10228678&merchantid=115117439&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwtdi_BhACEiwA97y8BIFpJEb34iU7bdkyQ8sIL6u5aYi76SPzVgSTSr9vUC8X__H_VjVfzhoCz_QQAvD_BwE Terry.
  11. I'd love to and generally try to make this one but my usually accommodating B&B is unavailable due to renovations so, an apology from me. 😢 😀 Terry.
  12. The only reason for asking was, although I recommended Lowrance kit, unfortunately, the Eagle line are what they call their 'more accessible' series. Although somewhat cheaper than the alternatives, they are built as very good sounder/fish finders but save on some of the other features like the chart plotter and connectivity options. I went for the Elite FS9 and am absolutely delighted with it BUT, it comes in at probably £300 more than your option. As they always say, you pays your money and makes your choice. Terry.
  13. I assume Karl fitted the option you chose? Terry.
  14. .......and did you remember to use it? 😉 Terry.
  15. Which I don't! Good idea, hadn't thought of that. Terry.
