Not A Bad days Winter fishing.
set off at 11 am in glorious sunshine and the sea was like glass. when we got to our first mark of the day and dropped anchor we were greeted by a couple of porpoises passing. fishing was slow to start with then Owen got the first cod of the day, a 2 lb Cod which he decided to return back.
As fishing was slow we decided to move to another spot and we managed to get a few more Cod out all around 3 lb.
Dave Shaw managed to catch his first Codling which was just over 3lb.
it would of been nice to get a few more fish but it was a brilliant day to be out fishing as the weather was great and the company was even better, a great set of lads to fish with.
looking forward in taking you all out again

Went fishing on the 24-08-12 was their nice and early, the sea was like a mill pond, never been so excited to fish the wrecks that ive herd to be famous for ling! We was booked for a 10 hour trip which is a long day for the not so hardcore angler. When we got their we found out that their was just the 3 of us on the boat! which was amazing! The skipper must be bonkers or brilliant one of the two to take 3 out for ten hours! I wasn't complaining!. My day started of not so good after donating about 5 perks to the wrecks in 5 drifts, but as they say you have to hook the wreck to know your in the right place! Then after the first couple i managed to bring up my first fish, a nice cod about 3lb. As the day went on the more fish we caught my biggest cod of 5lb and ling of about 8lb, at one point as quick as you was putting bait on you was taking fish off! All in all a fantastic skipper, fantastic boat and fantastic fishing. Will definitely be going again to loose some more gear in the wrecks and hopefully pull the same amount of fish out!
