Adam F Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Paul J and I both had holiday today, so at 6.30am we launched BW from Muddiford for a change - 2 mins later we are out across the bay! When Paul and I left home not a leaf was moving...on arriving at the slip a slight SW breeze was evident but it was still pretty calm. After we crossed the bar en-route to the Cod grounds a lazy rolling swell made its way from the SW - crossing the ledge into the deeper water and out past the lea of Swanage it was pretty lumpy!! The cod didnt show - but boy the whiting did!! We only fished half heartedly for them - but took a bucket of about 20 good 1lb+ fish for the table and returned as many!! We called it a day at 12.30 as unusually for me I was feeling a little queezy?? Not a bad day, a few fish, a bit of sun - much better than stuck at home - roll on sunday!

great white Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 That will teach you for sneeking out fishing while the rest of us are working. Good to hear there are some fish about. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 We called it a day at 12.30 as unusually for me I was feeling a little queezy?? I think the forecast is worse on Sunday, I think I'll overdose myself on Joyride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob F Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Stugeron is the stuff, Kam. You can buy it over the counter at the chemist. Martin's magic formula is to take one tablet the night before, to get it in your system. And then two tablets in the morning a couple of hrs before you launch. I remember someone saying that a Dr friend of there's said that Stugeron is the only medicine that really combats sea sickness. BF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coddy Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Best stuff is ginger! Get some ginger nuts (biscuits) and munch away! Even raw ginger works for sea sickness! You don't feel sleepy afterwards either! Coddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob F Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 ...or what about the old recipe...strawberry sandwiches...they don't stop you being sick , but it tastes much better when you bring it up. The old ones are the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afishionado Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 There is an acupuncture point on the underside of ones wrist about 2cm below the heel of the hand. If this is pressed it stops sea sickness in about 80% of people. Another acupuncture point that works on sickness and head aches is pinching an earlobe.

Maverick Martin Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Wrong way round Bob two the night before and one in the morning before you go Works for me..... most of the time Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old ones are the best! Don't matter what you eat, there's always carrots........ I found out the best cure is a fish I was throwing up on tuesday as the swell was getting larger, until I hooked into that conger and I was fine after that.

domino Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Best cure for sea-sickness..... SIT UNDER A TREE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great white Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Daniel usually suffers a bit on GW We were given the advice about ginger a few weeks ago since then even though we are only using ginger nuts he has been much better. Although Sam eats more of the "Cure" than Daniel does, its going to cost more in biscuits than bait at this rate. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 If anyone know where Wah Hing (chinese grosory stores) are in Boscombe and Poole, they do a ginger candy, quite gingery I believe. That might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
