2010 review

[cuckoo]

Well 2010 wasnt really a great year for me on the fishing front , i spent far too much time on the hounds and chasing the bass and sole off the quay meaning my species count was the worst ever , another slow start to the year on the fishing which does make you think twice about what you are doing standing on a frozen beach watching motionless rod tips , but the lure is always too much and sees us going back time after time .

Ive met up with some cracking people and anglers this year , and been to some fantastic meets with lots of banter , makes it all worthwhile , 2010 saw me handing over a nice amount from charity matches to give to the hampshire and iow air ambulance , and it also saw me soaking wet after falling in the sea to save rob who had fallen in trying to land a hound , very funny now when you look back , any how enough waffling and on to the fish porn ...............

pb spotty ray 3 lb 8ozs .............



Handing over the funds to cherry from the hampshire and iow air ambulance ........



playing with hounds .............















Another new one to me , cuttle fish ..................



then it was time for the bass and the sole and another pb .........

2lb 4ozs pb ..













The bass , no real monsters to speak of as i taught steve 1976 too well and he had them all lol !











Another surprise from the quay was this thorny ..............



And finally the swim lol ................



2011 will see me out more and getting back in the species hunt , and catching a flounder lol ! , thanks to all the lads ive fished with and had the pleasure to meet this year , look forward too meeting up again next year and doing it all over again !

Merry christmas and a happy new year to you all !

Great Report Lee, you still up for the species hunt in 2011?

[blackwater]

Your opening sentence was a blatant lie! It was a good year for you from what i can see

Well done, hope you have a great xmas and an even better new year!

[fishypaul]

you had some cracking fish there,especially them hounds and sole,well done mate

[cuckoo]

Cheers lads , when i said it was a bad year , i meant on the species hunt but next year ill change that , concentrate more on species hunting than just chasing the one well thats if steve will have me next year
