Pevensey Meet, Team extreme, November

[crazyplums]

Right everyone,

as the Dover trip numbers for the proposed november meet have been a lot short of my expectations, and the fact that it's only just after my holiday (ie prob be skint)i was wondering about doing a big pevensey meet instead, or maybe another location.

now i'm not sure whether to so it on sunday 18th (mrs plums birthday, will see what she thinks) or on the saturday / sat night ? i always prefer a night time bash, but will go with the general wish.

saturday day would give us a low at 09:45 (only a 5.8), and a high at 15:25,

or we could poss fish down from about 5pm (chinese meal first at the den) over low, it would still fishable on a long chuck, as the water won't receed too far, and then up to high, around 4am (or beyond !)

it would be cheaper for all concerned (unless you live nearer to dover than here !

november should still see bass and codling, but will certainly see flounder, dab and whiting by then, plenty of bbq / frying pan fodder !

can i have some basic ideas on what you lot think ?

Plums

Hugh,
There will be 3 or 4 of us again whatever you choose to do, makes no difference, nice to meet up and get some angling done.

[crazyplums]

good man, ....

[DoubleShotDamo]

Yeah, I like the bay, count me in for whatever you choose.

[crazyplums]

[whopper]

Shouldnt be a problem... Pencil me in provisionally. Not sure what mattwfish is doing ill call him.

[Chris]

im in:bounce:

[crazyplums]

cool !! looks like it'll be a good'un then. i'll speak to mrs plums about her birthday plans in the morning, we can then sort out the best time to fish.

i'd prefer the night, but....

[weehaggisuk]

i'll be there,,possibly without my chef:cry:

[crazyplums]

nice one george, and don't worry about not having the mrs, it's only a wee walk for ye,

[crazyplums]

looks like about 10 of us so far, could shape up to be a goodun !

[Barry]

Make that 11. I will be there as well.

[Jamie Donnelly]

make that 12, im intrested, Havent met up for ages.

Im really busy in November so would be good to have a date set in stone.

Jamie

[crazyplums]

nice one barry,

jamie.....

saturday 17th, definite.


everyone.....

i would reckon it best we meet around 7:30pm at the den/happy dragon, grab a chinese to warmvus up (or even some of their food!) and head of to the mark (currently undecided) before low which is 22:13, it's only a 5.8 so really you can fish right aay at most marks that have sand and not mud.

mrs plums and I will fish on until 4am as it's her birthday on saunday, we need to be half awake at least ! high tide is 04:21hrs.

how does that sound ?

obviously those who wish to stay longer, can,

[Roy-S]

Just found the thread, yep I should be there day or night.

[Jamie Donnelly]

17th doesnt sound good for me, i think im away on a JNCO course...

nevermind, good luck, hope to be able to attend the next meet.

Jamie

[crazyplums]

[dogmeister]

That would be nice room for a little one is dover a no go? The last one seemed a good hit!
If you go for the bay it should be good fishing my old man fished it down this afternoon for a few hours he had 10 whiteings,12 pout,two nice dabs and a codling of 3lb 8oz.

[mitch81]

HI Guys

Can anyone come along and join in? I would love to fish if i can?


ALan

[007lukep]

HI Alan, yes mate, keep an eye on the thread and just come along.

Joe, good to hear the fishies are about, seems the codling have hit the bay properly now eh! i might be out sat night, but prob going for bass down on the rocky rubbish if the tide allows, long walk for nowt if it doesn't !

sorry, this is CRAZYPLUMS, didn't realise my boy had logged in !!!

[fishyrob]

Didnt fish the bay since Feb, so I'll come along. Want to see if it is true that there are fish other than Rockling living there......:)
Will the tide be no good for a pump before hand Hugh?

[crazyplums]

rockling city sometimes !!!

as for digging/pumping, it's a very short tide, only a 5.8m, so it's doubtful that any pumping can take place, though it's possible, there's occasionally some sand and a small amount of worms could be gathered,

[TOM PARKER]

Can't make this one Hugh gotta take the girlfriend away somewhere for a looong weekend before I start me new job.

Good luck all I'm sure you'll catch more than I did when I last went down, Pout & Whitting!

[crazyplums]

thats a shame tom, take her for a long weekend in a caravan at one of the bay parks, then 'just pop out for a wee while' !!!!

next time eh!

ps everyone, don't forget that this is also doubling as the Mrs Plums birthday bash, i ant to ensure she's suitably embarrassed with a happy birthday song, so get yer voices tuned !! i'll try and bring cake too!!

[fuzzball]

:whistlinghugh what bait will be best for the night .... ? and i'm trying the Dvice with a wishbone rig i've made for the first time should be intresting.
taking theres a week to go hows the fishing been up there at the mo?


LA LA LA LA LA .SO LA FOR SO ME (COUGH COUGH) PRACTICE:roll1::roll1:

[crazyplums]

hi dude, there were a number of codling caught during the last couple of matches during the week, not sure since,

i went today for a few hours with my daughter, just whiting and a dab or three, all sizeable at least !

worm baits usually, mainly lug, tide will be too short to dig before hand, so get your bait early, anglers den don't book bait while the tides are short, it's hihghly likely they'll run out before the meet.

rag, squid, macky all work,, so does raw prawn if you can get em or afford them ! fish were both close in and at distance today (1/2hr up, over high and 2hrs down).

Hugh

[mesito]

Can we confirm what time we're all meeting up Hugh? With the short tide it looks like I'll have to dig the the morning low locally.

[Bally]

I may well make an appearance, but not sure yet.

[crazyplums]

nice one barry,

jamie.....

saturday 17th, definite.

how does that sound ?

obviously those who wish to stay longer, can,

Hi Steve, i guess this'll do.

as for diggin, i won't be able to dig localy after weds i think, so get what you can while you can, the tides are just too short.


Hugh

[top cat]

looks like im not gonna make this one gotta re-dec an entire flat before monday+carpets ready for my son to move in.:bye2::bye2:

[DoubleShotDamo]

Just a thought, why does it have to commence so late? Would it not be better to start in the afternoon? Then it gives those who do not want to (or can't) fish until 4am.

[crazyplums]

hi damo, it doesn't have to start so late at all, nobody suggested an early start though.

looking at the weather (force 5 in yer face by 1-3am) i doubt i'll stay on too late myself, se how the fishing goes i guess, i had considered getting the big groin by the end of the bungalows and setting up a tarp with bbq etc underneath it, anyone up for that ?

could make it nearer 4pm if ya like, the den will still be open for bait then (frozen lug only i suspect).

Hugh

[fuzzball]

hi hugh i'm 50/50 for the meet as me my 2yr old and 4yr old have got the lergy and feel pretty crap at the mo..

[crazyplums]

oh dear, hope they get better soon.

[fuzzball]

oh dear, hope they get better soon.

Me too m8 sleepless nights are very draining...
7.30ish sounds better for me m8 due to the kids,but if u fish earlier i will give u a bell on your mobile to find out where u are fishing (chinese sounds good) singapore stye noodles (yum yum)

so whats the tally of people fishing?

[crazyplums]

not too sure now mate, there was around 15 or so, but a couple have dropped out, shouldn't be tooooo cold with a sw blow though, weather reckons 9c most the night. fingers crossed!

[fuzzball]

hopefully this might bring a codling or 2 in, by 1am 20+ winds sw

[crazyplums]

just what i was thinking!!

[badger2]

So sorry guys, I'm gonna have to drop out, got this bug thats going around, I won't go into detail but there is lots of stuff coming out both ends that shouldn't. Maybe that is too much detail!
Sorry, next time
