I was trying to brush under the carpet the chairman of our sea angling club coming

You mean Kev "I've just got a new raider and theres nothing safe in the sea" Mac? :)

Surely there's some mistake, it must have been something he ate, a tummy bug... :)

yes he is screwed he might as well sell his boat, he is the type of lad that will get sea sick on a marina :lol: :lol:

Im always willing to help a mate out so I'll give ye 5 grand for your Raider Kev and take it off your hands.... :lol:

Yeah... Yeah... :lol: I might hold on to the boat for another week or two.

It was somthing I ate alright.... The 8 pints the night before :lol: It's all Marco and Fergs Fault.

The Nausia started in the "washing machine" Just couldn't shake it off for the rest of the day. Once we were out on the reefs, the sea conditions were perfect.

Next time your fishing just off the Loop, use a square of sausage, They should have a reel liking for it by now. :roll:

Well done jw!
Nice Wrasse as well!
Suggest August for your outing with me- maybe add a specimen Triggerfish to your 'collection'!
Would like to sponsor a prize for this outing annually.
