The probable weather conditions for most of Sunday's Bream competition are likely to be around:
South to South-Easterly 4-5 (with a chance of occasional 6)
Showers or prolonged periods of rain
Visibility - Moderate, Poor in rain
Sea State - Moderate, Moderate/Rough offshore.
This "guesstimate" is based on the combined output of several websites. Apologies if this proves to be too conservative, and it is actually a nice day!
However, if this combined forecast comes true, or ends up being a notch down, then I believe this will be borderline for the safety of some club boats, and too lumpy and uncomfortable for most boats to consider being out a few miles, and attendance will at best be very low. Also, as this is a bream comp, with most hotspots exposed, and no "harbour" option being really viable for bream, I think it best to postpone early, so that no-one feels obliged to fish, and all have plenty of time to make alternative arrangements, to suit themselves.
Discussions with Martin have resulted in a delay of one week being recommended, and as a result, the PBSBAC bream competition will be run on Sunday 20th May - which just happens to be the same day as the Poole Dolphins bream competition.

Good call, Mike. A friend has just crossed from the IOW on the car ferry and, apparently, it is very lumpy with car alarms going off and poor visibility. 
For once I'm glad to be working in the new extension laying a floor.
Terry.
you don't know what you would have been missing - georgeous day..........
lovely day for messing about in (with) boats!
Dave is determined to remove every baranacle so we can keep up with AWOL on the run out to marks!
Duncan good to see that you as skipper were watching Dave and giving praise from a distance
Sure was one horrible day for that kind of work.
I'm sure it will be us that follow you out to the distant marks, I've seen Phaeton flying by before 
Fingers crossed............it's looking good for next weekend !!!
.......on Metcheck at least!............ let's hope it holds true and we get a good weekend.
Does anyone know if Burnham Boats are coming down....for Part II ??
