have you just started a stampede of species hunters !? PJ

no what you are finding is that you've got to have this special lure or you wont catch and its £25:99 its not that theres less fish to catch its cause your gear isnt good enough PJ

Can i hear any tackle shops moaning cause they cant hold any Bass comps? thus loosing business? nor can i PJ

"I can't remember EVER being called diplomatic before ? :lol:" YOU MUST BE GETTING TOO OLD TO ARGUE

Sounds great Rob, really pleased you've been rewarded for the time you've put in previously- fantastic result "With such a clam day, you could hear the bait balls" yes i know that sound, exciting stuff! PJ

Charlie, if the tip curls its too hot!

Best Mackerel Ive ever eaten was aboard an old school charter boat, they were boiled in seawater with a splash of vinegar. When the tail meat starts to peel away from the tail fin yank them out they are done. Boiled Mackerel? sounds yuk but its not done this way, it has to be seawater PJ

Well done Oli

Malcolm is a thoroughly decent bloke and a very good fisherman, hes also an expert on fish stocks and does a lot to support the cause of us anglers If you ever meet him, ask him about the 50inch ( 50lbs) Striped Bass he caught, and watch his face light up PJ

Signed

This makes the assumption that the UK will look after it better - I'm not so sure the recreation angler will get any benefit- i hope so PJ

done, i think all boaters would sign this not just fishermen PJ

it is a pretty place
