    Report on-board Duke IV

    Spring has arrived with new water moving north bringing the summer species.
    Bass, Skate and Hounds are heading towards The Thames Estuary.
    Ronald along with son Declan landed 4 good Skate today on Duke IV with a mixed bag to make up the numbers with some bruiser spottie dogs.
    Our first Smoothounds of the season have arrived taking squid baits, now the crab moult will have started soft or peeler crab will be the bait of choice.
    Still plenty of herring around so they remain a favourite bait for the Skate.
    Hopefully the weather will now settle down, and we can look forward to some good fishing on the offshore wrecks, drifting for Cod, Pollack and Bass on the lures!
    Next individuals wreck trip 3rd May!
    Tight lines Bob
