1. 2010 MARCH WEBSITE LATEST NEWS

The BCC MESSAGE BOARD is now operational. ACCESS to the MESSAGE BOARD is   for BCC MEMBERS ONLY. This is now PASSWORD PROTECTED. The webmaster will approve your registration for membership of the board.

Should you have any difficulties with the MESSAGE BOARD, please email the webmaster at webmaster@britishcongerclub.org.uk

The WEATHER page has also been updated. Should anyone find something not function please advise me as these websites constantly change their URL's.

BCC Members this is your website so where are your PICTURES! I can only make the site interesting with your help. This year has been the worst for information, with virtually no new from BCC members or pictures.

On a website a PICTURE says a THOUSAND WORDS and I would rather have a thousand pictures rather than a thousand words!

 WEBSITE PICTURES  - When submitting pictures for the BCC WEBSITE it would be a great help to the webmaster if you can name your picture file as shown in the example: john_doe_57lb_5oz.jpg  This ensures that I get the name of the captor and the weight correct. Often I get a file name like IMG_123_7678.jpg which means nothing and with no further information. Thank you!

Any questions please email me at webmaster@britishcongerclub.org.uk

The British Conger Club Website reports on conger fishing news in the UK and other fishing and marine news worldwide. Please note that some months we do not have many new Conger pictures due to poor weather or I have not received any? I am always grateful for conger pictures, or pictures from any of your trips. Many anglers think the pictures need to be of eels of monster proportions to be published, this is not the case.

When the weather is inclement and you have a trip booked always phone the Skipper for a weather check the day before your trip as the weather at your fishing location may be very different from your home location. He will then advise what to do.

If you quickly want to hear the BCC WEATHER  - THE SHIPPING & INSHORE WATER FORECAST can now be heard by clicking on the LINK below or on our weather page. You need REAL PLAYER installed on your PC for this to function. Simply click on the LINK below:
