Good morning all. Need Good suggestions for a totally 100% waterproof jacket with hood. Mine was sadly useless Sunday and was soaked through to my skin. Thanks kindly. ... See MoreSee Less

Vass 350 jacket is great, however if anyone has fished on the same boat as me over the last couple of months and owns a Vass tex 350 jacket (the black and yellow one) please check you have the correct size, the one I have is a large (L) and the one I had was an extra large (XL), needless to say while fishing over the last two days it was a little tight to say the least. So should you have an XL and it appears a little loose please let me know so we can arrange a swop. Cheers all. 😄🐟🐟🐟

No 1 on the boat!😉😂!mine still soaking wet aswell!

Modern gear has to be both waterproof and breathable which is a very difficult issue to solve and most companies strike a balance between the two. Oilskins are totally waterproof but as the breathability is zero the perspiration cannot /has difficulty in escaping and you get soaking wet on the inside. Static head figures are important in your choice. I have heard about the new Drennan coats are very good but I can't personally comment on them and the Drennan logo is huge . The Reed Chillcheater also has a good reputation. 👍

Another recommendation for Reed Chillcheater, will definitely keep you dry.

I'm taking a punt on the guy cotton aqua star. Thanks again guys

Peter Yates when you find one let me know Ben Male just bought century hoody

Guy cotten got a smock think its aquastar water proof breathable fantastic bit of kit

Go out in better weather?

Reed Chillcheater Ltd braunton,if they don't have one to fit you,they will measure you and make it

Thanks for all your helpful comments. I'll sift through the companies you have mentioned and post the winner. Massive thanks guys!

Have a look at the Century Sea Fishing clothing range it's bomb proof

Gortex ex army camouflage waterproof s suit excellent waterproof them better than any brand forget the logos 🌊 🎣

FISHING TRIP OUT OF LOOE

Matt Bell, Barry Moore, Keith Bull and Mike Hansell had two very enjoyable days fishing with Murray Collings on Swallow 11 out of Looe .

On the second day fishing for Tuna on the first and second take both Matt & Keith lost their fish, The third take was down to Mike and after a 20-minute run he bought in a 65 ins BFT weighing 200lbs plus and new LRSAC (all UK areas) club record. 15 minutes later Barry increased that to 250lb plus with a fish of 73ins..

Matt then got into a fish that took us for 2 ½ miles and he was still trying to get to the side of the boat 1 hr. and 25minutes later.

It kept running under the boat and taking us round in circles, eventually we got it to the door and it was a fat 105 ins long Blue Fin Tuna!!

It was the largest tuna that Murray and John had ever had on the boat, so it was grins all round. Needless to say, Matt sat out the rest of the day recovering!!

Keith eventually caught a fish that was 57ins long weighing 120lbs plus. So, we had 8 takes and four fish bought to the boat all of which were carefully placed in the recovery position alongside the side of the boat before all were safely released back into the sea.

A great adrenalin filled day never to be forgotten!!

Let’s not forget the all important weight on my fat tuna, 750lb + 😬

Sunday’s club competition is off.

Hello all.
Apologies, we left it as late as we could but the unsettled weather means we have decided to cancel this Sunday’s competition.
There may still be a chance to get out but please contact your skipper to find out.
All being well, we’ll get out for the Gurnard competition next month.
In the meantime, if you get the opportunity to get out, take it, the fish are there and biting!
Best wishes,
Peter
