    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    The start to the Bream season kicked off earlier than for many years with goods catches coming aboard from the 1st weekend of April, all the local marks are producing with several early season bream weighing in around the 3lb mark, and young Andy Jewson on his 1st fishing trip with his 1st drop landed a fine Bream of 3lb 1ozs much to Dads dismay who had not even finished baiting up. The better fishing has been in the harder tides as expected but even in the weaker ones plenty of fish have been landed. Drift fishing along the shores has produced some fine Plaice up to 2 1/2lb along with several small Turbot, Gurnards and Garfish. For those anglers wishing to do species hunt trips Poole is an ideal venue as last weekend aboard the Mistress Linda over 23 different species were landed. Further off to sea during the weaker tides plenty of sport has been had with Tope, Spurdogs and Blonde Rays. Wreck fishing has been consistent with the time of year producing some fine Pollack and early Cod. The banks to the west have produced some fine Bass to over 12lb which after being photographed were duly returned by the anglers.
