Pictures through the ages of Really Wrecked members on the rare occasions that they've managed to catch fish.
Jari with a nice tope
What can I say about Jari that isn't either incriminating or libellous? Well, he's holding a tope in this picture.

Quality angler, quality fish. A 14lb 8oz pollack. The first bit may not be 100% accurate
Ex-World casting record holder (3.2g, closed-face-fixed-spool, bolognese float rod class), David Simpson displays a lovely 16lb blonde ray he somehow manage to fluke.
Robin tries not to look too ridiculous holding aloft and very nice fat early spring bream from the Kingmere Reef
Mr Selby demonstrates why he is such a respected businessman in Weymouth
Scoop seems to be expecting a bit much from his record lobster
And the turbot's quite a decent fish too, all 21lb 4oz of her.
One of Jonathan's many rough ground cod, taken on Ocean Warrior 3, in October 2010
Clive may have had two great fish, but then Stevie goes and trumps him with this fantastic 9lb 8oz clonking great bass. Nice one, you bastard.
Just after his seven, Clive had this club-record equaling 8lb 12oz beauty. Now that's what I call fishing.
Clive was into the bigger bass, while the rest of us caught fours and fives. He had this 7lb fish. Note Stevie retackling in the background. We must have lost about ten sets of gear each. The race at Weymouth is ROUGH.
This is what we're after. When we finally managed to get out after big ballans, it was great to see a really big one. Meet our new club record fish of 6lb 10oz.
Our new best friend John shows why he's always been a Really Wrecked member at heart with a truly brilliant hat, which may be in line for an award.
Stevie is pleased as punch with this splendid four pound fish
Richard shows the full range of his modeling skills as he poses with a lovely five pound ballan
Phil wonders what to do with a 50lb eel now he's got it in the boat. Sigh. I suppose, I'd better pose with it then...
The brothers Grant pose with large ling caught on Lone Shark. Chris's is still the club record.
Chris shows off a standard issue Weymouth tope taken on Lone Shark
Nikki proves that blondes have less fun when they're being manhandled by hairy scotsmen.
At least the seagulls like us.
Beef battles a big eel while a young-looking Chris Martin stands by with the gaff. My thumb make an overexcited entrance on the right of the frame.
Beef holds aloft our very first club record - a lovely 66lb eel taken off the Stone Boat in late autumn - while Chris Martin keep a paternal eye on proceedings.
Adam's got a big one, Two Dogs has two, but Stevie's delighted with his record-busting 11oz dab.
Ian shows off a nice Weymouth bream of around two and a half pounds
Robin shows that he too can catch fish, despite all the obvious mental and physical barriers to any kind of competence.
Ian Gray shows off a nice cod and ling caught at anchor over a Weymouth wreck.
What a belter. This lovely 20lb 12oz blonde ray set the club best on Richard's boat out of Weymouth.
Weymouth 2008 saw a few ling being caught while wrecking with Richard. Rab holds up a decent specimen.
The only time we've managed to get out after big ballans in November after the weed has died back, Richard managed to lose his anchor, and we managed only a couple of decent fish, including this nice five pounder.
Kim holds up his mighty kelp record, taken in Weymouth.
Nick Coster has a power nap to give him the strength to join in the jolly Bonwey-based banter. It's all those salsa classes sapping his strength.
Adam shows off his record busting tope. When the tope are around in Weymouth, the fishing can be very hectic. Luckily we always go to bed really late and blunder around fishing like morons.
This lovely 5lb 4oz plaice held the club record until very recently. Nice one Stevie.
This superb poor cod of well over 5oz snatched the club record from Clive by a full 8dm. No wonder Ben's looking like such a smug twat.
Stevie is quite the smoothie. He claims he once approached a lady in a bar without her running off screaming. Or record smoothhound would no doubt have done the same, had Stevie not subdued it in manly fashion.
Andy fell asleep while fishing at anchor, and as he snoozed, his bait drifted away from the wreck... Until it was picked up by this splendid 11lb 10oz turbot. Jammy bastard.
Another summer cod. This one fell to Phil, a barely sentient idiot with the IQ of a bucket of squid water. Rab, in the background, reckons Phil's quite the intellectual, however.
Colin cradles a lovely summer wreck cod. Shame someone didn't know about fill-in flash!
Clive shows off the club record blonde (at the time), which weighed a very decent 18lb.
What a magnificent specimen Ben Eveling is holding, weighing in at a splendid 1lb exactly.
This lovely brace of flatfish was taken from the Shambles Bank on Richard English's boat on October the 1st 2004.
