    Report on-board Flamer IV

    JULY 2009 - Gypsy Mariners S.A.C. for the second year in a row came to Weymouth for 5 days fishing aboard Flamer III.The unseasonal and often windy conditions did not deter them.During the 5 days they clocked up 23 different species which was good as the weather had restricted them to a limited area to which they could fish.Among the species caught were some good flatty's - 8Ib and 4Ib 8oz brill,4Ib 2oz and 3Ib plaice along with turbot in the 6 to 7Ib range.They also caught tope,black bream,cod,bass,gurnards,garfish etc and the smallest undulate ray I have ever seen which was a first for the club and Neil Tuckett who caught it.Over the 5 days a competition was done with the results being - Winner - Mark Cooper 446 points,Runner Up - Paul Costello - 324 points,Most Species - Mark Cooper with 16,Best Specimen - Paul Costello 8Ib brill(which is pictured),Weakest Link - Neil Tuckett 184 points.
    The club enjoyed themselves so much again,thet have already booked 5 days for June 2010.
