2006 tide booklet from Portland Oceaneering for £1.40 - bargain!
Already got one,. BBC's Tidal information is interesting -perhaps more like the program mentioned - in that it shows visually the double low tide anomally.

I was hoping to go out today but too many late nights last week put paid to that . The cold weather, lack of fish & talk of spawning flatties has sapped my enthusiasm somewhat too. Probably next week. Managed a couple of runs to help start shifting the Christmas excess though (wetsuit felt a tad tighter last time out!).

Re: Dorset Spearfishing 2006

You do look like a soul"man in that photo Old Man Dave.....I can almost hear the Bee Gees in the background...

Cannot deny you are the master when it comes to flatties.A lad on the medfish forum has posted a picture of a 6kg turbot shot in 4 meters of water last week.I didn't know they came that shallow.

Apparently, some people used to call him Stavross (probably not the right spelling) you know the guy from Kojak with the mop!

Re: Dorset Spearfishing 2006

Sandsfoot at night ?? What time of year Almostafish?? I went into Portland Oceaneering on saturday to place a picasso order with Ade and he said you had all been in.Catching turbot at night sounds like a real challange.How do they taste out of the harbour ??? I know fearthesper said he shot some rays in the harbour and they tasted bitter...is that just a ray traight or because they were from the harbour?

Re: Dorset Spearfishing 2006

They taste very nice indeed. Come on out with us one day/night and have a crack. Just send us a pm. Prepare to be cold though..!

Unhappy Re: Dorset Spearfishing 2006

Weather not looking too promising for the weekend so far - 12 & 17mph winds out of the south .http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1740...maybe I should have made the trip last Sunday after all!

Huge sole Dave - respect

Re: Dorset Spearfishing 2006

It was a balmy 6c today, UK Spearo had 7 and I had 6 scallops. Saw one small flounder and 1/2 dozen Olympic sailors!

I also saw my first ever lumpsucker fanning it's eggs, they are one weird looking fish....
