A late first posting of this favorite annual topic  <img src="/emoticons/default_biggrin.png" alt=":D" data-emoticon="" srcset="/emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />.

 

I've penciled in a trip to Alderney in Tigerfish around the weekend of 6th-7th of May aiming for a 4 day trip the from 4th to the 7th as the best neaps are then.

 

Backup weekend date of the 20th-21st of May with a 4 day trip from the 18th to the 21st or 19th to the 22nd.

 

No crew arranged yet.

 

Anyone else planning on going?

I probably will not be going over the channel this year but am looking at alternative long weekends away

Need to get cruising diary sorted to coincide with good fishing spots

 

Shambles instead of Alderney, may be Chichester and Solent!

Hello everyone! The shooting season has now finished so I'm back!

 

Really keen to get back to Alderney again this year, so count JV I'm on these dates. As usual, we will go when the weather and crew allows provided we have at least 1 buddy boat.

 

With Alderney Angling closing down, more of a reason to maybe look at Guernsey as a base this year?

Hi Adam. I'm happy to base at Guernsey there is a problem though, B&B is in general much more expensive. They also may not be flexible cancelling when bad weather and let's face it we often cancel.

Hi Steve, Adam, anyone else...

Hi Oli

 

Yes, same dates, ideally Thursday 4th to Sunday 7th for the best (smallest) tides. 

 

Will flex depending on weather.

Good stuff, we're very fair weather Alderney visitors so let's hope for sunshine and mirror-like seas!
