Hi Norm, I've been invited down to Plymouth, sometime this summer, by a mate...to fish on Tiburon, dont have dates yet...but will let you know....fancy a space ??? I believe Tiburon has been sold to a skipper in Whitby so I don't know what boat you will be on

Thats what puts me off Glenn, I hatre fishing from the beach as the weed is a pain...but the left of Runswick is a special place.

You hit it on the head Big Cod/GlennK

This Morning before I left for work I was doing my usuak thing watching the News, and there was a headline which I caught on my way out of the door about conservationists kicking up a stink about the commercial sector....If anyone was watching and could fill me in on the full story it would be appreciated. VMT Phil Found it, it is on http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4996268.stm If that does not take you there then it is on the bbc new website in the international news column. Phil

BINATONE YOU SAY YOU ARE A MAN SOUND WITH THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, WELL WHY DO YOU SPELL STAIRS INCOORECT ALL THE TIME BY SPELLING 'STARES'. ONE FOR THE BOOK I THINK!!

.

Binatone, why are you telling big Cod to get a new boat and that he should get a boat suitable for anglers, I think you will find that the class of BID COD's boat is being built everyday for charter skippers around the globe, and as paul said there have been lifeboats built with the same hull of that of pauls boat, so wind your neck in Binatone....it is you that does not know the facts this time Binatone...same old, same old

Not that I care much of commercial fisherman....especially MR Binatone. But does anyone else think in the same frame of mind as me that as there are being more fish farms built to produce not just cod but lots of species that are now scarce. Soon there will be so many that prices for fisherman's catches will dip as the major fish suppliers around the country will start to do the same as the supermarkets instead of using the markets will buy from the conveyor belt of the fish farms and in turn the demand for fish on the quays will go down and so then will the prices...which will of course effect the commercial sector, but hey this is ANGLERS NET, not COMMERCIAL NET.

Binatone! - atre you saying that big cod's boat is not suitable for carrying passengers.......well the authorities that pass a vessell fit to carry passengers must not think that or he wouldn't be able to take anglers would he. Also let me say this, I have sailed omn ships bigger than your small trawler that you slogg your guts out on and I can tell you this size does not mean stability!!!

Welcome to the Forum 'Drake of Plymouth'. I now live in Plymouth, however from Whitby and have not had much chance to have much of a dabble down here. However I have a few contacts from the Armed Forces Fishing team who know the area very well so may be able to help you after I have had a word with them. With the little knowledge I have of the area mate I know that there is good sport to be had.....but it depends what you want to fish for......You have not said what you are wanting to catch because with the water slowly getting warmer down here, in the the next six months the Makeral fishing should perk up and there s good sport to be had there.....But as I said I am a beginner to this area, but have fished along the Yorkshire Coast since I was a lad and so am not sure where the best spots are. However I will keep you posted. Tight Lines PK

Sam at the end of the day Sea Angler will print anything.....as it seems that they are starting to go down the Pan....and rightly so too....All you see is advertising!!! Bring on Total Sea Fishing thats what I say, it's a much better read anyway. PK

One of the worsed things has to be the smell of rotten bait on the boat from the previous days where the boat has not been properly washed down.

I've never known anyone to contradict themselves so much!!!! Binatone the wors 'GO and see a doctor your losing your marbles' come to mind!!!!!!
