As it's looking a bit windy for cod I'm taking a tin of paint with me, watching that dry will be more exciting than fishing for flounder! 
Is it being sponsored by Wessex possibly??No competition held by and sponsored by Andy @ Poole Sea Angling Centre
See HERE
Martin
I stand corrected.
I am sure i saw it advertised in Wessex window, maybe thats where i got confused. (I'm not as young as i used to be 
)
Apologies to Andy @ Poole Sea Angling Centre.

Just a quick post whilst thawing out with a cuppa.........
I can see why Adam's not a fan of flounder fishing! ; and why like several others took off out to sea in pursuit of the 'flounders' with olive and gold spots on them!!
Today was a day of long periods of inactivity, punctuated by two short spells of action! On the plus-side, the weather was beautiful [if a bit chilly], the scenery spectacular and very little fuel used!!
Launching in twilight at 7.45, required a deeper immersion of the trailer ,as Gastro was frozen to it!!. The sun was coming up and the harbour was flat, so Paul and I took off a short distance down the harbour in search of a better size fish and stopped close to where last year's winner came from. An hour of inactivity, then two bites and two fish in 10 mins!!........but both small ones.
Two more hours of inactivity [ despite some subtle repositioning] and some action needed...... also I didn't like the choppiness caused by a bit more wind. So up into the shelter of Holes Bay [ like a different world.....all flat calm again!]
..........and the pattern repeats.......90 mins of nothing, then two fish in 10 mins!!, then nothing again!! But this time the fish are much better.....and the bigger one comes into the net at 3 lbs 6 oz ; after a bit of a scrap!! ......... and proves enough to win the day!!
A pleasant change !! Thanks Paul for the good company and lively banter [ and as Rich would say... acting as decoy!!]
Thanks to the club for the hamper of goodies and best wishes to everyone for a Happy Christmas and fish filled New Year [ I know mine will be!!]
Alun.

Well done Alun J for winning for the third? consecutive year and also to all those that braved the cold conditions and supported the club comp.
Martin
Well done chaps!!!
We tried a couple of spots from Frisky Fox, in our first trip in about 2 months, but an inshore mark 90 minutes "out" (for us) didn't seem the best of choices in hindsight...nor whole squid to 3/0 pennels on 100lb trace. Hey, we might just have had one or two ! Unfortunately we were plagued with doggies and smallish whiting, and not a flounder in sight.
Second spot seemed a slightly better choice...in sight of Wight Magic, Court Jester and Gastronaut in Holes Bay, and we changed the squid for ragworm on a No 4 fine wire, but alas, still no flounder.
Well done all who persevered!
Mike
Well done Alun......seems that choosing what went into the hamper did the trick !!
3 years on the trot ??? that's gotta be a challenge for some one to break the sequence.......
Have a wonderful Xmas and enjoy the hamper of goodies.
Jim.......Just out of the prizes.....oops !! too much washing up last week !!
Have a good'un this xmas mate
We were moored up and ready to start at 8.00
Dave, Lee, Mark ( Zippy ) and Myself.
I was lucky enough to get the first fish. 1lb 8oz flounder.
Then it all went quiet again and we were discussing Dave and Neal's scrap for top place in the Species Comp.
Dave was saying how Neal was in a good position to overtake him, when the Jammy Beggar pulled out a -- - - - - Rocky something ( I'll have to sort out a photo cos I've forgotten it's name! )
Well that was it then !
Off he went and caught 3 Flounders. ( It's all down to feromones y'know )
A very cold but enjoyable day. I enjoyed meeting Zippy and getting a chance for a chat.
Shame the fishing was a bit slow, but if they gave a prize for the most CRABS- - - - - I'd be in with a shout !
Thanks again Dave.
Jim
Well done Alun
A good cod trip or two this week and now retaining the Christmas hamper for the third year

Charlie
Yes, Well done to Alun, Dave and Dean.
