Saintly Fish

👍🏻💪🏻 Slow and steady wins every time bud!

WOT should be just about the right speed on your boat then Mike 🤪

That's not a normal phrase you hear from somebody who lives near Tenby now is it?? Top Tope though Andrew!

It’s only Monday , if you ordered them Wednesday last week (I recall) and he sent them 2nd class they may not arrive til tomorrow/Wednesday which would then be a week. You can always give him a call back. He’s pretty good normally!

Water was crystal clear. You could see the shoal all the way to the bottom.

Because I didn’t catch anything. And it’s no surprise really with the amount of bait fish in the area. This isnt a great photo, but shows the concentration of sand eels, this lot got bigger as the depth of the water got deeper. Taken from Swanage pier on Saturday.

Nice to see another young rod enjoying the fishing. Thanks for sharing Dicky, some nice fish fun had by the looks of things. Did Jack win anything in the comp?

FFS🤬 Ok, time to get walking.. Cant blame her though for thinking she probably wouldn’t be able to control herself..

@Andy135, she’s still not here. I’ve sent Michaela and Leo home and I’m down to my last warm can of Stella. Any chance you can txt her to see if she’s forgotten??

Cheers Swampy!

What? You mean they’ve gone home? I’m only an hour away!!!

Same thing, no?

You said you were getting me the best!

My taxi is booked for 9pm. But I’m the mean time, can you send a photo to excite me? (Of the street party prep)

She’s still not turned up yet. Is she an after dark act??

Well if your at a loose end, you could always make a matchstick model??

Looks like an Etec ?

Oh that’s lucky then. I was worried I’d missed her!!

Thanks for the birthday wishes. We are in swanage for the weekend. Just looking round Corte castle then off to the beachside pub. Bought my spinning rod too for the pier!! @Andy135 , she’s not here yet.!!

That looks like one of @JonC’s reels after a wayward cast! Glad you had a good day and are now feeling fit again. Bring on the wrestling!! 💪🏻

Only done it once, the hike and the climb down to the beach stops me going again! Did catch a 20lb conger though.

I refer you to my post before last!

Trouble is you’ll only benefit if you are getting out of boating all together. Otherwise the money you make you will have to spend on the next boat that’s over inflated.

But you have to be Jonny on the spot to grab a bargain.

It due to the fact that people are staying home and looking for a way to spend their leisure time, instead of going abroad. Too many people and not enough boats for the demand is giving greedy brokers and owners license to inflate prices by around 20%. The same is for the caravan and camper van market. Staycation properties are the same. All driven by greed and the ready money market we have at present. A work colleague of my wife had a cottage booked in north Devon for august, they booked it in December 2029, in March this year their booking was cancelled, apparently due to Covid (the old new excuse for everything). They paid £1200 for 10 days. Money was refunded, but a month later the same place was being advertised for x3 the amount for the same dates! pure greed.
