I went out ... motored over to Christchurch Ledge at about 20 knotts, limped back at 8 knotts at times. Waves breaking over the top of us and our fuel supply rapidly running out!! 70 litres of fuel and a pretty grotty trip with nothing to report apart from mackerel ..... hundreds of em!!!
Went out with Neal and his mate Dave.
Got a few Mackerel and a Scad for bait
Went out further for Rays etc.
Dave had a Blonde and a Bass.
Neal had a Gurnard.
I had a Tope.
I also had a sleep, the rough sea took it's toll on me and I felt quite sick.
We all had plenty of Doggies.
Dave had a big Tope that let go at the surface. He kept lowering the bait again and it would follow but wouldn't take it.
Back into the harbour and tied up to a bouy - nothing but weed.
Moved in front of the Castle for some Wrasse, Pollack and baby Pout.
Neal's got a list of who caught what but I think it was a total of 11 species for the boat.
Shame that the rough sea got to me, but all in all I enjoyed myself.
Thanks very much Neal - and Dave, it was good to be afloat again.
Jim 
Well done, god to blow out the cobwebs no doubt Jim!!

Left Cobbs not a flag flying so calm.
Decided to head west and have some fun.
Training bank for some baby pollock for some bass bait then off west.
WRONG, a different world at the lighthouse, turn about to Swanage Bay.
Picked up mackerel on the way.
Charter boats stacked up in there, dropped anchor on Evans rock.
30 mins later Dive charter boat asked us to leave so they could dive, reponse ended in OFF!!!
LSD's and wrasse.
Got bored after an hour so had a wounder to a few marks but wind against tide was a waste of time, facing one way in the wind and line passing the anchor with the tide!!
Into the harbour and pick up a bouy for a relax and easy fishing!
A plaice the size of a saucer and enough seaweed to keep Japan going for a year!!!
Lines up and time for a pint instead!
Back at Cobbs by 3.
What I got:
Pollock
Ballon Wrasse
Mackerel
LSD
Plaice
and the right hump!! (Wind & weed)
Well done anyone who kept going but after the Cobbs comp (Wind & rain) the other week you can only have so much fun for the sake of it!!
