hi Hugh just reading your post with envy would love to fish your match at Ventry on sunday should be ok with e wind. Is that a misprint or have i just read it wrong Ritchie Gormley had a 50cm Dab. That must be a near on record. Hope all goes well, make sure you put the results up will be looking forward to reading them

don't know did you fish last sunday but the easterly murdered the fishin.
of 34 rods there was 17 fish caught (not 17 caught fish).
that 50cm dab is correct as far as I'm aware. the lads said it was potential record but Richie did the honest thing.
the fishin was a pity cause all the previous week it was hoppin from what few the lads told me.
results were
1: Chris O'Sul
2: Chris Nelms
can't remember the rest.
biggest flat flounder 340 and biggest round a coaly of 260.

personally blanked!

oh ya, next comp is an open on inch and we're hoping for smooth southwesterlies!
