ME Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 You boys couldnt organise a...err...err...a fishing day in a fishing boat ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Gasp, shock, horror - there is a discrepancy in the weather forecasts. Perhaps we should just pick the best one BBC is showing low wind speed. Let's make the final call tomorrow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Yep, I just checked that and 5mph is nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlight32 Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I am now the owner of a fine craft, and am pondering on making the offer to take you all out. I dare thee Essex lad's......... would ye stand afore the suffolk mast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Metcheck also now reporting steady 6mph, gusting 8mph; looks like a go go :blink: So a mixed bag kind of day has been requested, will ask the skipper to get some worms and crabs - not sure on the hermit crab situation as he's had a couple pots nicked lately (most likely by Kent of Suffolk bandits). If anyone else brings any more of either then we'll sort them out appropriately. We need to sort out our own lunch and liquids other than tea / coffee. Regarding a trip out from Suffolk; reckon that would be a good one to arrange for the colder months when the codling are back in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavman Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Baz,There's not even anyone from Suffolk in our party ... ATB RC have you stopped to consider why that may be the case :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Elvis Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 :blink: How big do the crabs need to be? i could pop into the gu clinic tomorrow? Have we got any times etc yet, grumpy bob asked................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 What time would you like to start Gentlemen? Our usual start times vary from 05:30 to 08:30... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Not too early, It will take me best part of an hour to get there. 7.30 would be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 OK, it's about an hour for us too; 07:30 it is, but that's the time we'll be aiming to leave the marina, please. Skipper will supply hermits and squid. If anyone can get hold of say 6 to 8 packs of lug and 50 peelers that would be great?? (I'd offer to do so but am working late tonight and all day tomorrow so won't be able to get down to Southend in time). We'll also be relying somewhat on finding some mackerel for bait. Nice bright shiny feathers chaps Brekkie is sorted so just bring what you want to eat for lunch / snacks, don't forget to bring enough liquids too. Baz, I'll be leaving mine at or around 06:00, welcome to come to me or we can meet you somewhere on the A127, give us a bell... I tink we is sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markio Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 What's the final list of who is going? Can I have MC's guns and his dog if the boat goes down please? No wait, you've already got a dog, that's not fair! You have Bazza's snakes and I'll have MC's guns (well except that pump action). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spotted Raja Clavata browsing about on here about half an hour ago, so either they're all back or he swam for shore Sounds they got two Flounders and a jellied eel Edited June 28, 2009 by Chard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
