mike farrants Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 You lot are a bunch of blankers so i thought id share my recent (unusual) blank afloat! (spoiler alert) was a lovely evening with light Westerleys - perfect for drifting east across weymouth bay straight out of the harbour - no time wasted - as i only had a couple of hours. i rushed home from work, grabbed the free rag from Tuesdays pier session and some frozen squid, and "rushed" under the bridge and out - greeted to someone pulling a lovely looking bream or bass off the pier i was full of hope! aim was to drag a blinged up ragworm off a boom across the sandy bottom for a plaice or other likely candidate, while simultaneously towing a float suspending a squid strip for a gar fish or other likely candidate, PLUS with a set of feathers over the side aiming for a scad or other likely candidate..... (species hunt) - with 8 hooks over the side i couldn't fail right? needless to say ronald provided the only fish that night - if you can even call it that!

JonC Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Nice that you chipped off early but I think your time could be better spent. I went into a branch of a well known online tool catalogue shop and they didn’t have any M12 shield anchors in stock. Surely this awful situation needs sorting out before you fuck off out fishing?

mike farrants Posted July 22, 2022 Author Share Posted July 22, 2022 i'm really sorry the copy-cat that is toolstation didn't have your items in stock - you should of tried Screwfix...... plenty in stock there, in store, and available next day - and if you live in a region covered by "screwfix sprint" - we can deliver to you/your site quicker than you can get a pizza there.

Odyssey Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 A blank on the boat is a better evening spent in front of the TV! Personally I went to the gym but would of rather done my fitness training by pulling in fish 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy135 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Filet-o-Fish? Wonder what they'd say if you asked what sort of fish it was 🤣 Still good to be out though - top marks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
