You chaps really need to get your calendars sorted out a little earlier, and give them in doors special orders that the Tournament date is not to be messed with, Richi, can't believe that your letting a little thing like work get in the way

 

Listen, promise to do another winter bash for those that feel up to it in the cold depths of winter and will try and make it a Saturday.

 

Phooey... the man that lives just down the road now can't make it either, nor can Simon, his sun has just busted his wrist, so he's in hospital at the mo awaiting surgery, that's two number one sons out of action now.

 

But on a happy note, Artfulfisher has suddenly got a repreave and can fish, so can Nifty, plus me, John Legg in Wales and GB, Darnsarf, Paintfly and a whole host of other boys and girls so lets get out there, suncream on, loads of liquids in the back, bait in coolbag and get some species in the bag, I'm only fishing 5 rods this time around, two on the bottom, one float, one fly and a spare with feathers if things get a bit slow.

 

Have decided on my mark, sorry Darnsarf and Paintfly, decided to stay closer to home, this being the first weekend after the schools break up, roads will be hellish, going to launch at Bracklesham and fish 1 mile out until slack water and then come inshore and fish the wreck at Wittering if there isn't a net over it, hoping for at least 5 species, be happy with one

 

Off to pick up some bait early tomorrow morning, shop won't be open at 4am on Sunday

 

Good luck to yall, stay safe, this is SM off to bed to dream of calm seas and big fishies, looking forward to seeing some photo's on Sunday.

Richi,

 

Have you thought about fishing the morning tide on comp day, you would be home for lunchtime, least you will be in the right time zone for your 3.30am start on monday, reckon you could have a good few species wrapped up by then, remember how few were caught on the first summer tournament, it's never easy and anyone could win.
