  • 03/2018 Fishing Report by Sam Cumming on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    With all the wind, rain and snow we have been having over the last month this is going to be a brief report. We have managed 4 days afloat since mid February, thankfully the quality of the fishing has more than made up for the lack of opportunities to get out there. We have focused our efforts on the wrecks mid channel and that has paid off with good numbers and some quality fish making appearances. Biggest so far is around the 15lb mark with average sat at about 8lb, a key ingredient for success seems to be a very long trace sometimes as much as 15 feet. We managed to beat one of our longest standing boat records in early March as Pete Knight battled a 9lb 8oz coalfish to the surface. The record has been at 6lb ever since Silver Spray 1's first trip to Alderney in 2006. Elsewhere we did have a couple of hours on the spurs whilst doing some filleting one day and they are still on the grounds in abundance with a few blonde rays thrown in for good measure. Over the next month we shall see the arrival of the flatfish on the banks and the bream on the reef grounds.
