    Report on-board Flamer IV

    BUZZ LIGHTYEAR CLEANS UP - The Blacksmith Arms Fun Time Sea Angling club enjoyed a three day angling break aboard Flamer III.The first day was spent mainly fishing for flatty's and although the action was slow,Mike Browne known as Buzz because of his likeness to the Toy Story film character Buzz Lightyear landed his first ever turbot an excellent fish of 20Ib 8oz.The successful bait was a strip of Ammo mackerel.Days two and three were spent wrecking and plenty of pollack and cod were caught along with some ling.Simon who is nicknamed SKID(something to do with his underpants) also managed to catch a conger.Trophies were awarded at the end of the three days and the the results were Winner - Buzz,Best Flatfish - Buzz,Weakest Link - NIck Rip Van Harrison(because he likes to sleep a lot).So Buzz cleaned up with the majority of the trophies.One night we all went out for a chinese meal and trip organiser Matt got a fish bone stuck in his thoat which eventualy he did manage to cough up after a lot of different methods including a chinese one were a plate was placed on his head and tapped with chop sticks.Matt was nicknamed "BONES" for the rest of the trip.The other member of the crew Danny was nicknamed "Fernghi" which I was informed is a character from Star Trek.I also got given a nick name "The Cod Father".Fish of the trip had to be the 20Ib 8oz turbot caught by Buzz(pictured).From a personal note Matt's crew were a joy to have on the boat and I look forward to seeing them all in 2011 for another round of micky taking,nick naming and of course the fishing.
    Angling breaks for 2,3,4,or 5 days have become very popular and are a good way to relax with some fishing and the social is always important.INTERESTED in an Angling Break in 2011 then contact me Colin for details a.s.a.p. on 01305 766961 or 07968972736 or e mail colinpennyfu2@aol.com
