Andy135 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Weather looks a bit iffy for us on the south coast so I'll probably give it a miss unless I get the trim tab actuator fixed and can take it out for a shakedown trip round the harbour. What about you lot? @mike farrants, will you be extending your mega-blank this weekend? @Plaicehunter, are you out on the lures? @jonnyswamp, chasing mudpigs in brown soup?

I would have been out yesterday and today, but not been feeling too good so gave it a miss, hopefully if the weather holds, then I will be out next Tuesday.

No Andy, I'm giving up on Neil now due to his disrespectful attitude to one of the few people who dared to speak his mind, and the other two just make occasional (far too frequent) slip ups.

My pal AW has a boat at Salcombe and is thinking about a plaice trip, probably on Tuesday. I may get out luring solo on Sunday, though the water temperature here in Plymouth has dropped again, from 10.1C a little while ago to 9.7 a couple of days ago to 9.2C today. Not surprising with low air temperatures and cold rough winds. I reckon 10C is about the minimum for successful bass luring, but I may give it a go anyway as I start getting twitchy after a few days of no fishing!

No fishing for me this weekend, dodgy forecast The trim tab switch came yesterday, so went to the boat this morning and cut a bigger hole in the dash panel, but didn't have any decent connectors It came with female deutsh plugs on the flying lead, but no male ones I'll probly shorten the cables a bit and fit new plugs Supposed to be wrecking next Saturday out of Paington, but unless the forecast changes it will be off Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) Yep Madness is out with an old new crew member as number 1 son Dean is not available. Jim and I will be trying for the plaice along Bournemouth-Southbourne beaches and may if the weather is ok try further out for Bream. A few bream have been reported but not in any numbers yet, here's hoping Edited April 10, 2021 by Maverick Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
