| Most memorable moments of 2006 What were Forum members most memorable fishing moments of 2006?   For me they were: 1. seeing a massive shark (Approx 12') in the Surf at West Bexington.  2. Hooking something in the surf on mackerel feathers at Burton Bradstock about 10' from the shore that bent my beachcaster double, took line against a fully tightened reel clutch & had me running down the beach after it as I tried to slacken the clutch. Sadly it parted company before I could see what it was. I suspect I foul hooked a large Smoothound or Bass. __________________ Don't Judge My Path If You Haven't Walked My Journey...     |

 Re: Most memorable moments of 2006 The un-planned sessions are often the best mate, & that applies to fishing too...... __________________ Don't Judge My Path If You Haven't Walked My Journey... |

Which gives me the chance to thank you all for all your help and advice and for making me welcome.  to a successful 2007cheers Claudia alias Jonah1 __________________ There is certainly something in angling that tends to produce a serenity of the mind." - Washington Irving |

| Re: Most memorable moments of 2006 hopefully it would be the 10lb cod i catch b4 the new year, but heading back to the realms of reality , 1, though i hate to admit it,- watching ashleys face and the smug look as he beached those small pollock at the smut fest... 2, the ray meet at jacobs ladder, where i think every one caught . 3, watching the dolphins/porpoise at new quay breakwater. __________________ beer so many venues, so little time. |
