Peter Gillett, Lee Page, Glenn Barrett, Paul Musslewhite, Mark Bailey, Kelvin Bailey and the infamous Dodgey David Barton joined Flamer IV for their annual Angling Break. Their original 2020 Angling Break was cancelled in June because of lockdown.
This time they managed to fish three out of the four days with the last day being cancelled due to a gale forecast.
During their trip they caught a variety of fish which included Rays, Tope, Pollack, Black Bream, Congers, Turbot, Bass, Gurnards etc with Glenn Barrett also catching a Red Mullett.
They did a competition over the first two days which Glenn Barrett won and Peter Gillett was Runner Up.
The banter and friendliness on the boat was as good as ever.
In the evenings the group did socialize but said it was not quite the same with all the necessary covid - 19 restrictions in place.
All the guys stayed at The Marden Guest House which as usual was great and provide a superb service.
The group have already booked their annual Angling Break for 2021.
Pictured is Mark Bailey with his 30Ib Tope.
Angling Breaks - Book Now, Don't miss Out,*** NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2021 *** A few days away fishing out of Weymouth along with the social side is a nice trip to do. The variety of fishing and the amount of different species caught at Weymouth is probably second to none. There are plenty of places to stay which are angler friendly and some excellent places to wine and dine around the harbour and in Weymouth Town centre. If you want to try a Weymouth Angling Break then contact me, I cater for whole boat charters and individuals. If you are interested in doing a trip with a difference please contact me for full details. Planning your trip well in advance is essential you need to arrange your boat/place booking and your accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment, some of my regular groups plan their trips at least 12 months in advance, this allows them to discuss with me the best tides for the type of fishing they are targeting. -
