    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    First report of the year will only be a brief one due to all the wind and rain we have had since Christmas which has restricted us to just half a dozen trips. Fishing at anchor is still producing good numbers of whiting up to just over the 3lb mark, slack water being the most productive time with white feathers or hok-eyes the rig of choice. We rounded out 2017 with some more bass both on the drift and at anchor on live pout. It's just catch and release now until July, perhaps the entire year, we shall find out in March after a further review of stock numbers. Last week we managed our first trip to target the spurdogs successfully. Although a large swell running from the southwest kept the blonde rays fairly quiet as the gear was lifted off the bottom frequently, the spurs didn’t disappoint with 5 fish landed all between 17-20lb. There are also some big pollock starting to appear, February can be a good month to try and target that new personal best providing we get the weather. Alderney and Cherbourg trips are filling up fast so drop me an email at info@silverspraycharters.com if you would like a list of remaining dates.
