Phew, for a minute I thought that you had caught aids from the sewage pipe.

Forcast for light NE winds and sunshine tomorrow, clear water with no swell...
I'm going to try again down at the Gouffre if anyone wants to join me saturday a.m. ...

Good idea Jonny, but the 30mile swim is putting me off! I am tempted to try a shore dive 2 mos in sweltering Jersey , but anticipate max 10ft vis, no fish and very slightly cold.

 

[Magpie]

Yer mad Jonny, Enjoy! Let those of us who like our appendages a healthy pink colour know how you get on.

Hey Mike , we went to the friquet last night & i checked out one of the rooms for you - pretty good actually
What do you think about a two day specimen hunt?
PS you Email is full again!

 

[jerseymike]

When u say u checked out the room.................?

 

[beardy241]

Yeah Mike, probably Apple Pie'd the bed and did something unseemly to the pillows.

 

[jerseymike]

hope his rubbers didn't break!

 

[Spaniard]

Mmmmm Ormers.....

 

[foxfish]

Ormers at Le Friquet....

 

[jerseymike]

I cant cope with image, may have to cancel Le Friquet!

A two day specimen hunt wld be very good, but wld also enjoy a silver fish comp on the Sunday. Maybe having two slightly different comps wld add to the occasion?

Either way it will be good.

Re silver fish Comp. Apnea, our local dive shop, have run a silver fish comp annually in Jersey but this year, I think they r open to a the idea of a Gnsy comp, and i think they may be persuaded to put up a couple of prizes for a similar event over the fish in.

FYI, Jsy Silver fish comp is a Bass,Mullet and bream comp only, with a limited catch (Jsy comps were 5 fish of each species, but could be set at whatever). With prizes for overall heaviest catch, heaviest catch of bass, heaviest catch of mullet and best of each species..

I have been entering comps for years but the Silver fish comp is definitely my favourite.

I Had a nice swim in at the Gouffre this morning; the water isnt too cold and was quite clear.

 

[foxfish]

Clear enough to see any fish?

 

[jerseymike]

I braved it too, but have to say result was as expected. Saw a big zero. Vis 12feet, cold after 1.5hrs. Despite the chill. Really enjoyed the diving and great to be in the water. No wind and sunny helped it feel ok. Looking at photos , Gnsy is far clearer than Jsy. How did u get on Jonny?
