Kam, I think the problem will be the same, mess and somewhere to store it. Terry.

You may find with your scales, like mine, that if you hold them a bit longer, they will fix on an average figure. Obviously not quite as easy on a kayak. Terry.

Happy cake day young Jim, don't hold back. Terry.

Can anyone else hear an echo??? Terry.

About 20 miles from Poole harbour entrance so, 40 miles round trip plus a lot of drifting and take into consideration the tides, you'll use more fuel against the tide. Terry.

Not going out tomorrow although I will be down on Friday to meet with my electrical engineer who is going to do a couple of jobs for me. My input into this is to postulate a possible method of safe fishing going forward. I have a local friend who wants to come out so, when we are allowed, I have suggested that we both do one of the free flow tests the night before, just for security. Obviously, a positive test result would mean cancellation. The tests are free and readily available so, what do folks think? Terry.

55 miles away, practically a local, I'm in Oxfordshire but have been a fairly active member since 2004 so, get involved, meet the crew and enjoy the best club on the south coast. See you out on the water. Terry.

A repeat of my greetings in the 'other place' but I thought I ought to make the effort, if only to ensure others didn't think I'm a miserable scrote. 😉 Terry.

Must meet up when we can. Terry.

Just out of interest, is that your Witney or my Witney? Terry.

Again, there is one law for them and one for the rest of us. I think the authorities are afraid of them as they will play the Human Rights card. Terry.

I should imagine he thinks he's got off lightly. Terry.

That's pretty clear.......I think. Terry.

Trying to impress the neighbours Jim? Terry.

Alun does dig his own worms, we were chatting about it earlier. You knew of the cooked prawns as I brought them to the flounder comp a couple of years ago and caught on one. Alun originally put me onto the prawns and they are the cheap ones from Tesco, etc, as stated earlier in a different thread. Terry.

It comes with a trailer which makes life a lot easier, Rob. I will have my back-up riding shotgun in case of mishaps. Terry.

I have come to the same conclusion so will be heading to Lyme Regis on the 31st to collect my new ride and, from that point on, will be making up for lost time. See you out there Jerry and everyone else. Terry.

Git! I won't be infesting the beaches, keeping myself to myself. Terry.

Of course, you could be in local lockdown again when all the a**oles descend on you with the good weather. Terry.

He's starting his own news channel, GB News. Terry.

........and can I come fishing on your warm boat. Crawler! 😁 Terry.

I didn't watch and wouldn't give them the oxygen of my interest. However, thanks to a share from Alfie Tucker in the 'other place', the Australians know how to sum things up succinctly and with no concern for sensibilities. https://www.skynews.com.au/details/_6237889058001 Terry

I certainly won't be going out until the end of the month as I live two hours away so can't travel until then but, as soon as I am able, I shall be amongst you. What boat do you have? Have a look at some old threads which will give an idea of the weather apps we use to help to decide if the weather/tides/wind will be suitable on a given day. Plaice are starting to show although normally they are a bit out of condition at this time as they are just recovering from spawning. I am reliably informed that the smaller to medium ones are o/k with the larger ones showing more effect from the exertions of their breeding. Targeting turbot could be a bit hit and miss, they are not prolific in our area although they do show up now and again, we usually go to Weymouth or Alderney for those. Keep watching the catch reports, things should start moving soon as the water warms up then you'll have to book a spot on the hotspots. 😀 Terry.

Welcome to the Club, you will not regret your decision, I, like quite a few other members, am in Cobbs so hope to catch up when we are able. Terry.

Roll on the 29th of this month! Terry.
