Martyn,

I do not have e mail addresses for all jersey contingent. Several have tried to sign up to DB but report experiencing technical difficulties? So to short cut problem and make sure you know who is coming from Jsy, here is our confirmed list.

Mike Shearer
Louis Joualt
Cobus Jacobs
Dan Noble
Paul Achler

All, above travelling thursday , getting in late Thursday night, staying till Monday, Booked into Le Friquet. All would like to attend social intro meet Fri night , Herm BBQ Sat and ur firehouse BBQ Sunday. Hangovers permitting, all will dive specimen comps Sat and Sun.

+

John Saunders. John has registered independently. He is camping in ur garden and will be diving Sat and Sun.

Neil Howarth may try to get over on Sat and back Sunday. Will let us know asap.

regards

mike
 
Incidentally the shore fishing comp was eventually won by a 13.13 bass!
 
Right folks - we had the list officially closed at 32 people now. You can still register from this point onwards but we can't guarantee spaces on all activities.

I can also now formally say that we will be subsidising the cost of both the Sat night Herm BBQ as well as the Sun night Fish Feast (courtesy of Foxfish). There will be a nominal fee for both nights (around £10) but we wanted to sponsor both nights.

We also have some diving companies sponsoring prizes and goodies for everyone coming so expect goodie bags!

I'll be on island with Smurfette from Thursday afternoon so those wanting to meet up and have a beverage i'll be happy to oblige!
 
What we need now is for everyone involved to cross fingers and everything else to ensure - Sun, Calm seas, Big fish & Smiley faces :friday

Nice one Stephan - very generous indeed.
After spending 3 hours in 13.5 deg water yesterday I'm so looking forward to this - it will be warmer in Guernsey won't it??

3mm or 5mm? oooooo choices choices!

8 deg seemed ok in march mind you. flippin typical! coldest time of year when I was there last! sun was out though which makes all the difference!

I have lost track of who is actually here on Thursday the 2nd of August?
Stephan & Vicky, Yeti ...anyone else
 
Just look at those water temperatures... if anyone decides they don't want a nice weekend of spishing, let me know, I got 1870 trees need cutting, sorting and bundling...
 

I have been asked about different species of mullet but to be honest I want to count Golden Grey mullet & thick lipped mullet as the same!
In other words if you happen to spear a GG & a TL they wont count as two different species.
It is simply to difficult to tell the differance with some fish & I just don't want to get in that situation.
However with the bream I think we can add Gilthead, couches, & white as individual species..
The same with flatfish...
So now we have

Bass. 2.5lb
plaice 1.5lb
Sole 1.5lb
Turbot 2.5lb
Brill 2.0lb
bream black 1.0
Couchs 1.0
gilthead 1.5
red mullet 1.0
trigger fish 1.0
Gurnard 1.0
Mullet 2.5
Pollock 2.0
Mackerel 8oz
Long nose 8oz


Any one want to add to the list?
