    Report on-board Patricia Rose

    WELCOME PLYMOUTH DANGLERS SEA ANGLING CLUB.

    In response to customer requirements to scratch that itch no matter what, we have created a new organic club. Organic to the boat, certainly not organic to the special treats we frequently bring for each other. Conscious that our abbreviated nick names may include, 'The Danglers', 'The Dangling SAC' and every other connotation, we are a group of friends/fishing colleagues who have committed to meeting up at least one a month in the pursuit of catching as many different sea fish species as we can. We are not affiliated to the Angling Trust yet as a club and core membership is free. Our initial members have joined with a £150 joining fee which buys them 2 x trips to the value of £60 and a navy blue Cornish Fishing top valued at £40 complete with embroidery. There is no prize money so no incentive to cheat. We are doing this for our own development and as a means of getting out once a month where the focus will be on seasonal variety vice filling the freezer. There will be two competitions run simultaneously a monthly and an annual. The rules, if they can be loosely called that, are as follows:

    Annual Competition. - For every different species caught aboard Patricia Rose or a Patricia Rose organised trip, you will receive a single species point. If that fish is 100% or higher of the AT Specimen Fish List for that area, then you earn two points. Fishing areas are relative to the port of departure, so in all cases, fishing from Patricia Rose will be measured against Area C South Devon lists. You can upgrade your fish species points should you achieve an annual PB that reaches 100% specimen size from one point to two. EG. You catch a Black Bream in January of 3lb earning one point then catch another one in September of 3lb 8oz (100% specimen). Your original one species point is upgraded to 2 points. It doesn't have to be a nominated species hunting day aboard Patricia Rose to count; you could be out on a wreck trip and catch something new for your annual species list. The winner will be the angler with the most species points at the end of the season. In the event of a tie-break the winner will be decided by the highest number of specimens. If it remains a tie after that, then relax its a bit of fun and no-one cares if we share in joint glory. (If you do, this is not for you)

    Monthly Competition. - Each month there will be a nominated Danglers SAC Friday or Saturday species hunt. (This allows the workers to still get involved). The emphasis will be on variety not quantity. Everyone starts on zero and the usual species points rules stand firm; one point per species, two for a specimen. The winner will earn one point, second two, third 3 etc. The annual winner of the monthly league will be taken from your best 8 scores for the year. If you've only fished 7 your 8th score will be an 8 pointer (max number for the boat). In the event of a tie breaker, we go to species points as above.

    2023-24 SEASON IS 1 NOV 2023 TO 31 OCT 2024. pm Andy to register
