Skate mutilation

in response to should you send the pics to a sea angling mag etc, i remember on the cover of shooting times a few years back a picture of a springer spaniel,s head covered in tics (blood sucking paracites) and i mean hundereds of them! and at the time i was really shocked about what i saw but it had the right effect, not for one minute did it create a bad press but more of the angle that the magazine was prepared to name and shame the terrible owner who was responsible for leaving the poor animal this way and teach a lesson to others! whislt showing that the majority of particapints in this sport are not as irresponsible as a small minority.

Ian, Hiya, re the Tope.....off topic ....I've got a trip with yourselves, booked next month, and I've forgotten to mark it in my diary, you couldnt tell me when it is could you......D'oh :confused: Cheers....Also, can you give me the Ships Number too....B+B is a calling....

Hi Norrie

 

The date is Oct 17th.

 

Considering the weather the Toping is going well at the moment. I lost the biggest Tope I have ever seen yesterday at the side of the boat. The lad had bought a Cardoc trace :mad: :mad: :mad: that broke at the boatside. I was and am still gutted that we didn't get it in to measure and weigh it.

 

The Ships no. is 01776 840277

 

See you soon
