Gruffy Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Hello everyone, Another newbie joining the forum here...I've looked into the forum for the last month or two and have been very impressed with what I've seen, so thought it was about time I said hello. By way of introduction, I've had boats for the last 12 or so years and currently run a Karnic 2051 out of Poole named Kirsty Lou. I fish prety much exclusively for bass, all bar a couple of which I return. I fish about 60% with the fly rod, the rest is with lures, plugs and various other artificials. I'm also one of the fish recorders for BASS, so have been interested to read about the club's involvement in scale recording. It's good to read about so many members having a great time fishing afloat, I've particularly enjoyed reading the crac in the catch report threads...I'll look forward to picking up on who runs what boat, and will hopefully have a chance to shout a few hello's across the water when I see you out fishing. Best Regards, Allan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomBettle Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Hi Allan and welcome onboard. Not that many people flyfishing around here so it may well have been you I spotted last Saturday thrashing the water out near those funny shaped rocks towards Swanage on Saturday..... Hope to see you out there soon Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
