    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    A lovely day out today with a fantastic group of anglers. Top day in the office for me….

    Simon Ullyot and five friends had the boat for their first trip of 2023. With the tiny tide and light winds it was always going to be a day on the wrecks.

    We ran south a few miles to our first wreck and pleasingly it gave us some solid sport for a couple of hours. We took 2-4 Codling every drift and Norman Taylor was clumping them every run through. Nothing massive, but a lovely clean fish between 3-5lb.

    We proceeded to wreck hop for the rest of the day. In total we fished seven wrecks and just two were unproductive. It was great to finally get a bit of consistent sport.

    It was inevitable, but Annie Helliwell stole the show today. On her first boat trip, having never fished wrecks or caught a Cod, she took plenty of fish and also the biggest Codling of the day. She took on board the advice offered and it was great to see her improve as the day went on.

    The majority of the fish came to muppet bait traces with a whole squid mounted on them. But, when tried, the Shads were also working, Whites and Rhubarb & Custard being best. A sure sign that it is clearing out nicely.
    Everyone had plenty to take home today. A fantastic day spent in great company.
