Could only catch little smuts and Tope this summer

My two fishing partners bailed on me this year

 

Bri was properly sick with pancritis, and barely got out

Baz had bigger plans

August didn't see me get out much as I had a few weeks abroad

I did do the airshow with Bri

Autumn and September saw me manage to launch at Ladram, and had a lovely day there. Met up with some old chums . Good times

Also got a launch at BA and got my best bass of the year, about 7lb

October has seen me doing more night trips and starting to look for the winter species

Happy to report Bri was on the mend

And Winter.

I've had a few stolen days that were more like summer. I've had a good few flounders, and a few "rare" codling.

The social meets were wrapped up with the flounder meet, and despite being a bit of a dodgy day , the meet was a great success

So to sum up. It's been a good year with mixed feelings and mixed fishing.

I reconciled with a chum. I made it to lots of the big meets. I caught some good fish. I tried to beat my 2013 total in a species hunt, but at time of press I've only equaled it at 30 sea species.

I've had a lot of fun and met some great fishermen. I've missed out on some noticeable species. Blondes, stingers, Tope, smuts, sole, turbot.

I've loved reading everyone's catch reports on AA and PBSBAC

It's been a year and that's for sure.

Bring on a bigger and better 2015

Luvtoots

Great report Lofty and well done on the effort you have put in.

 

I don't know how you pull the reports together so well, maybe another refresher required! (please)

I enjoy doing reports just get frustrated when I try and attach things they add on upside down etc!!

 

Good luck for your fishing this year.

Superb, that's all !

 

Just a footnote, I also found Cams departure very upsetting , my last trip out on the yak he once again made the effort to launch

In attempt to help me with my sea trout hunt ( failed again !) makes me realise how lucky I am to beat this terrible disease and how hard it is to stay positive no matter how hard staying above ground can get at times.

 

 

Hope you don't mind Lofty, just found this old piccy of Cam on that very special day

No hijack intended , just missing the old git !
