Saintly Fish

Hi Jon and welcome. 
This is a monumental day for JonC. 
Since he learnt of your arrival this morning he’s been like a dog with two dicks. You will never truly understand the amount of man love JonC has for you. 
All he talks about on WhatsApp is how in awe he is of your legendary tales from Aus. 
I think you’ve really made his day. 
Having said that, I am going to have to double check your IP addresses to make sure your not the same person !!
Good to have you here regardless !

that is extremely generous. It seems the GPS pucks are the same, have sent you a PM 

Adam what GPS puck does the 330c come with as if it is compatible I have a working Lowrance 3500c unit, GPS puck has failed, with a chart card that covers the whole of the UK you can have for covering postage.
Thinking about it if you are prepared to get a GPS antenna for my 3500c you can have it as I have replaced it with a Simrad unit.

Ahh but thats where a £25 non runner starts becoming a £125 non runner..... If its got compression, it's got a chance, if its got a spark, an even better chance, fresh fuel, its got a chance, theres always easy start...... Changing impellor etc at this point adds nothing. You wouldn't want to do all that and find the big end knocks.....

If he wants £25 fo the outboard, if you bung him another 25 for the plotter you're more than quids in

I have been fishing the Solent and beyond for around 35 years started on charters and progressed to my own boat a few years later,,, I fish all year but it’s the cod season I like the most. As Suzook said some of you may know me from wsf 

Surely you must almost be there by now then ?

You can’t even catch them Jon!

Hello
my boat is a Starfisher 840. Powered by a Yanmar 6lpa dte shaft drive engine. 
She’s the perfect choice of family cruiser and fishing boat. 

Had her since May 2019, but always on the lookout for a decent upgrade deal. 😉



contrary to popular belief , the skipper always puts the crew on the fish. 🎣
 

This is the largest plaice caught on my boat, 6 lb 3 oz by John Prince on 21st Sept 2010 in Poole Harbour.

Are you sure you just didn’t miss ?

I agree with Martin, fair play Steve. I know I’d rather be fishing or scratching my balls than doing a boat project. But do love to watch one progress. Good luck.

This baby was caught right out side Cowes harbour . 

With a cod...

Not caught one for a couple of seasons now, and yes I’d had a hat on most of the day. 
 

Yep, told you I am a fan of the spinning spoon! 

Yes I’d go back, it’s a fantastic place. 
fishing at home is fishing at home. It is what it is, if you don’t embrace what you have then you’d never go fishing. 
the solent is a great area, especially on a boat. 

Now, that is a monster plaice !
