Leicester Fisheagle Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 In order to avert a serious bout of Cabin Fever, Fisheagle will venture out this Friday. Hope to get a few miles offshore, if not, it looks like worm drowning in the harbour. On Ch 6. Allan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarlach. Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Good luck Alan, I hope the fish gods are kind and generous to you !! I’m off to Abbotsbury at 5am tomorrow for a dangle off the shingle ! Small tides and an easterly breeze.... how more imperfect could a condition be ?? Still beats working !!

Greg Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Neal and I have the same ambitions tomorrow, so we will probably meet you at the 07.30 bridge lifts. Will be on ch6 once out of the harbour. Will be on ch14 through the harbour due to Commercial traffic and expected poor visibility Greg Mal Thomas and Jim 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Fisheagle Posted November 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Hi Greg, will be out on the 9.30 Bridge. Hopefully it will be clearer by then. Will give you a call before we leave the Harbour to see what it is like where you are. Do you have AIS? Allan. Mal Thomas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 looks unpleasent, i assume we all know but i will post anyway! Westherfil.com has a great list of live and historic weather - they have devices at mudeford, parkstone YC and portland outer harbour (plus loads more but these i use). Great to see what it is actually like before setting off from home. esp if wind was supposed to drop off overnight and you are expecting less swell etc - this is where the history comes in to it's own. REMEBER TO CHANGE SETTINGS FROM m\s to knts! https://weatherfile.com/ mudeford: https://www.weatherfile.com/location?loc_id=GBR00004 Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Well We set out at 08.00 and returned back 09.00☹️☹️ Didn’t even get out of the swash channel with waves going over the top of the wheelhouse. Chris has managed to get out, but too rough for my back and knees we live to fish another day!!!!! whenever that will be ?

Leicester Fisheagle Posted November 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Fisheagle was phoned around 8 am. by Neal to say they were coming back in due to rough weather just as we were setting off so, macky and other frozen bait returned to the freezer. Spoke briefly to Chris on Kingfisher and decided to fish the harbour. Tried the Ferry Terminal, Island and several other places in the Harbour. The wind did us no favours. A fair number of different species were caught but not the ones we wanted. The neap tide probably had a lot to do with things, especially the total lack of Flounders. There were also a good number of crabs about but very little weed. On the positive side, I was glad we went out as we got plenty of fresh air and the boat got a good run.

gonorn Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 As the wind had gone around a little NE I decided to go blow out some cobwebs today at the Rockley end of the harbour with Mr Nash. The plus side being we used about £2.50 in fuel and managed to drown a few worms. The bonus was my first flounder of the season, followed up with plenty of small bass. Not a huge fish but very thick in the body. However as Allan said plenty of crabs stealing the baits still.
