The BCC MESSAGE BOARD & MEMBERS ONLY pages on the website are now operational. Both are PASSWORD PROTECTED at the request of the BCC COMMITTEE.

ACCESS to the MESSAGE BOARD is   for the use of BCC MEMBERS ONLY or for CHARTER SKIPPERS wishing to to advertise spare places.

Both the MESSAGE BOARD and MEMBERS ONLY pages require the BCC webmaster to approve your registration for use. Please carefully follow the instructions which are simple. If you apply for registration of the MESSAGE BOARD you will automatically be sent the PASSWORD for the MEMBERS ONLY page. You must REGISTER on the MESSAGE BOARD first to gain a PASSWORD for the MEMBERS ONLY page.

You may now use any USERNAME/PASSWORD you like on the MESSAGE BOARD. However you must use your REAL NAME when REGISTERING. Failure to do this will involve me sending you an email to re-register using your name. You must also have a bona-fide email address. All email addresses are checked for authenticity.........I have now had two persons who have tried to register with a false email address.

In the past the British Conger Club did not keep a full register of email addresses so this has also been a problem in identifying BCC MEMBERS. I am now collecting BBC MEMBERS email addresses by this method. If your house address has also changed, please email the webmaster with these details as well.

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

Should you forget your PASSWORD for the MESSAGE BOARD, there are instructions on the MESSAGE BOARD on how to retrieve it. Do not email me!

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.

LOGGING ON TO THE MESSAGE BOARD: THE MESSAGE BOARD page LOGON has been changed. This changed on the 1st May 2010. You now have to REGISTER and the webmaster AUTHORISES only BCC MEMBERS for ACCESS. You must have a bona-fida email address. It's as easy as that. Why have we done this? It ensures that only BCC MEMBERS can view their thoughts on the running of the BCC.
