I think it’s the crouch comp Sunday so there’s going to be loads of boats out although they all tend to head south towards the Kirbys. I’ve told them and I’m telling you, stay off my marks. 😡 Galloper with Scott Belbin, I’ll tell him (I’m sure he already knows) to stay clear of your marks. Might be a good idea if you sent me a list of your marks that way we can make sure we always avoid them ?

I’ve not been with him before, my mate goes with him a lot and catches a lot of big tope and bass so I’m hoping for a good trip. He doesn’t waste time feathering for mackerel like other skippers he goes to billingsgate on the day and get fresh mackerel so we get more fishing time. Probably best that I don’t log his marks on my navionics app then, could make for an awkward atmosphere.

We were fishing about half a mile away from him and when we packed up we went back on the same track as there are a few obstacles on the area to avoid. We were a good couple of hundred yards away and he came running out giving us shit🤣🤣 daio web 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it isn’t easy running a charter boat but some of these skippers think they own the sea and that privateers shouldn’t be allowed past the creek mouth bouy. I’ll post up a report on how we get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday's weather is marginal for most of the smaller boats so it could be just be Sunday or fish from Port Logan Saturday and Drummore Sunday?

JonC Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 River Crouch boat comp on Sunday, they recon they have about 50 boats attending which will probably mean 25 but it should be interesting. Format is biggest bass section and biggest hound which are all that’s realistically going to be caught in our area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
