Sam count yourself lucky.
At least you see them go past.
I know they are going out, but my office window doesn't face the right way!
Gutted I am not fishing inshore today. Would have been great to have been out with them. I am sure we will see plenty of reports of monster Bass by tomorrow evening.
Went out through the Haven for a couple of hours into a SE3-4. Overcast and mild. Only pottered a short while (still no mackerel around the Hook Sands on trailed lines) and got back as the ebb was starting and it was starting to kick up a bit.
Harbour full of boats drifting the channels - both North and South of "The Line", but no fish spotted being boated. The Harbour Master was watching intently too!
Think I would have chosen a certain sheltered rock mark for the comp, had we been fishing it today. The open sea looked a little uncomfortable.
Will await the results with interest!

Just one bass on Gastronaught :

Team Fugazi blanked on Bass!
Got some nice action shots of the boat though to add to my album.

Well done everyone.
This weather is really p155ing me off 
Was planning to make this my first comp but the forecast put me off... at least I finally got the cars washed!
Best Fish on Awol;
Martin Burt 6lb 3oz
Dean Burt 6lb 7oz
Well done all you lot, I'm very jealous. I really wish I could have got down but I don't trust the back yet for launching and recovery and my crew is on holiday. Perhaps the weather will give me a decent day before I disappear for 3 or 4 weeks.
Terry.
Well done all who fished!
Some great fish came in, and some really good tales told.
