 branscombe in the snow 4/3/5 well really wasnt too sure about last night although the monthly wed comp the weather really wasnt too pleasent as we left exmouth with sleet and rain falling and a temp gauge arround the 3* mark but amazingly by the time we got to the beach at branscombe along with the few other nutters who braved it last night ( 8 of us in total better than i thought with the forcast  ) we saw clear skies and no wind so both of us resplendant in the new £6 and £7 ( mine cost more as needed more material i guess ) pikey tradeing hoodies, by 7.30 we set up shelters and rods quickly just left of centrebaits were sandeel/squid/mackeral and razor to try and tempt a huss and worm for anything else well it was slow almost to the point of static ( well my rod tips were ) rich did manage this fine silver eel( too small for comp but 1.5 points well done mate) the snow then fell and then turned to some really cold rain which was unpleasent but come packing down time 11.30 i had still hadnt even had a bite but rich at the death snaffled in a fine doggie of 1lb 13oz  which gave him 2nd place, the winner ken had managed a v small dog and a v small huss for 3% more in total , only 1 other person caught and that was a pout , so didnt feel bad about blanking myself next month will be at rockling cental ( ladram bay) drove home through a blizzard , and woke today to reports of east devon being snowbound in places  a tough night roll on saturday and some big fish fishing   dave __________________ www.exmouthsaa.co.uk 24 beers in a case and 24 hours in a day simples You won't know unless you go :D...and if you do go!! please let us know :D as thats how the forum thrives Last edited by pingu; 03-05-2009 at 11:36 AM.     |

| Re: branscombe in the snow 4/3/5 If it hadn't of been a comp, we'd have been in the pub long before closing I reckon. A silver eel which didn't register a bite was celebrated like a 5lb Bass! and getting second for the doggie as I pulled the rods in to tackle down sums up the whole evening really.Still, points I guess. __________________ Right then, checklist: Rods.
