Well, after my meeting with Capt. N Haddock @ Boscome Pier - he will post report.
My next day out is in Swanage, collected pre-order Rag from Christchurch Angling Centre - Tom, nice selection of smaller rag worms, all lively.
Half an hour road trip,then the ferry, F##KING cyclists on those winding roads,pay fuck all,yet expect you not to run em down!!!! Arseholes the lot of them.
Pier was busy with hollibobbies, divers and pleasure craft, but settled down in the still on shore breeze ?.
Ok the technical stuff for you lot who persistently MOAN.
One rod, on line, running lead size 2 long shank hook, sharpen by myself this morning, baited with a wriggling Rag Worm.
The other rod, fishing with braid, up and down flapper size 2 freshly sharpened by myself this morning.
Weights were 4 oz with grappling devices.
Catch for the day, well after last catch, some 3 hours of sweet FA.
Nice schooly bass, returned to see another day, A nice plaice, a keeper, but returned to the sea, A bloody nice Spider ?, again returned alive to annoy someone else.
So, that's been fishing ? Twice so far this week, and have caught some different species on each day.
 
If I'd known you were at Swanage I'd have popped down
I did put it on the sites prior to the visits.
All are welcome, even those who like to have a poke now and again.
Coffee,tea, a ?? or just fishing ??, I am open to suggestions.
