jonnyswamp Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Lovely boat, couldn't find one when I was looking a year or two ago Quote
Geoff Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 That boat looks lovely. Purposeful, well equipped and very well kept. Thanks for posting. Geoff.☺️ Quote
Andy135 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Very smart tub indeed! Thanks for sharing 👍 Quote
Odyssey Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 Cracking boat! Currently ranked joint 2nd with an offshore 25 😁 Obviously a bit biased putting mine first 😉 Where are you based? Look forward to a few reports when we are ever released! Quote
Maverick Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) Welcome Steve, always admired your boat but are you now using it more regularly or does work still get in the way Martin Edited February 2, 2021 by Maverick Quote
Cuda4 Posted February 3, 2021 Author Posted February 3, 2021 Many thanks for the comments and good to be onboard the forum, just getting the boat readyfor itsannual service and anti fouled ready to get out and catch some plaice from next month fingers crossed lol Steve Andy135 1 Quote
Andy135 Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Plaice! Now there's a species that seems to be getting thin on the ground round our way. The Blocks have never fished well for me, neither has Medmery. Tried Middle Grounds once and blanked, so haven't gone back. Maybe it's me but since the mussel beds have disappeared so it seems have the plaice. On the other hand, it could just be that I'm crap at fishing... 🤣 Quote

Makes me think that it's also down to us as anglers to go and seek out that little patch of fresh ground that isn't known or fished by the masses. Got to be some plaice around still - just need to put in the legwork to find them. Quote

Yep - never a more welcome fish than a doggie on a blank day. 🐶🎣👍 But in all seriousness, I do think they have an unfair rep. Sure, they're not the greatest fighter, but they're my kids' favourite, and I have a soft spot for them too. They're little sharks, with rough skin (no slime) and eyelids that close (cute). One of the most charismatic fish, especially when they wrap themselves round your wrist and puke all over your trousers... 🤣 suzook12 1 Quote
