Having had a new windscreen fitted on Friday am we were a little later leaving than the rest of the pack. With the weather being perfect for travelling and others bait fishing we made good time so soon caught everyone else up.

We decided to go straight to the shambles and take our chances on the bait front. We soon got some bait although it was decidedly hard work with both mackerel and launce coming aboard sporadically. First proper drop and Dean was into a turbot of around 4lb. Then...........................nothing. We decided to try Portland race to try for bass. It was a tad lumpy in there and with just one small bass being caught for our efforts. Soon gave up and opted for a last drift on the bank but without any luck. A quick run into Portland harbour wash and brush up then walk into town? for a very nice curry.

Up on Saturday just in time to see Alfresco leave port to plunder those offshore wrecks. We along with most others decided to have a late start so after breakfast and a lot of fiddling about we left for another day on the banks. As there was enough bait left on ice from Friday we started fishing straight away. First drop and Dean is into a small Brill that was about sizable but went back to fight another day. Very slow today with Dean catching a gurnard and a couple of Weavers and that was it. Dean fished as hard as ever I have seen him fish but all to no avail and I blanked, not a blooming fish but still enjoyed the day. The evening gathering at “The Boat that Rocks” restaurant was superb, great food great company and loads of wine made it an evening to remember.

Sunday arrives with our plan being to go 19 miles offshore to some wrecks and hop our way home. The weather was not having any of that with around 3 metre swells and a freshening wind it was decided to go across Weymouth bay and try fishing at dancing ledge however after several chats on the radio to others that were further ahead the decision was made to go to the south west banks. Got there just as the tide was starting to ebb. Hook in baits down but after about 45 mins the hook let go and we were adrift. With the wind now against the strong tide we gave up and cruised back to Poole for an early bath.
To sum up the week end was brilliant. It’s not just about how much or little was caught that make a trip like this it is the whole experience of cruising in company. I think everyone enjoyed themselves and I would like to thank Charlie for organising both the marina berths and the restaurant.

Where are we going to next

Thanks Martin

I am glad you had as good a time as we did

It was good to see so many boats all lined up at the edge of our area, and have such a good crack. as you say its not all about fishing

I was so tired last night, I nodded off in the second half of the cup final biggrin.gif
