Some photos and report from todays 8hr and 3hr fishing trips.
8 Hour
As we were catching bait we had a pod if bottlenose dolphins come and feed around us this morning.
Then when we got a few mackerel, sandeel and herring we headed offside and worked a a few wrecks
The lads caught a good amount of Cod and strappy ling and we headed further out again and managed to get a 16lb 3oz ling.
As the winds wipped up not as bad as yesterday we ran back inshore again and fished the more inshore wrecks.
Overall the lads managed to catch 11 species and the trip with one customer catching 7 himself
Dab, weaver, whiting, mackerel, sandeel ,herring, pouting, coalfish, pollock, cod and ling
Back out again for a 3 Hour trip
Mainly new anglers on this trip they all caught plenty of plump mackerel.
A few caught some sandeels, herring codling, and a cracking 9lb pollock for this Young Lady -

Seamed like a perfect morning
Picked some mackerel up on the way out got to the first wreck and the first drift produced a few strappy ling and small codling then 2nd drift it was like fishing 20 years ago with some really nice fish coming up.
After a good hour or so fishing slowed down so we ventured to the next wreck and then the winds picked up making drifts difficult for anglers but they still got a few fish.
Then the south easterly came through and pretty much doomed the trip, fishing became hard the sea just built up so we kept plodding on taking the odd fish each drift.
Overall the lads had some cracking fillets to take home and plenty of mackerel
And the Ling from this morning is a new PB for the angler and the boat weighing 24lb 9oz (at 126cm long). -

We had a really good mixed day with some really clean cod and pollock and some strappy ling.
Winds were difficult today making drifts hard to fish but they kept persisting and were rewarded with some cracking fish. -

A cracking stamp of fish caught on today trip with a good amount of Cod boarded.
Loads of mackerel now showing at long last. And plenty of sport on the shads and lures again.
We did get a few strappy ling on this trip aswel so it won't be long before we see the better ones.
Great set of lads with a few been complete novice anglers, after today's fishing I think we have got them all hooked now.

Not the best of conditions at all with a few suffering with the effects of sea sickness early on but the winds were due to die down and they did giving the anglers some really good fishing.
All of the anglers gave it a good go even those feeling unwell and recovered quickly when fish started coming aboard
Also great to see the kids enjoying it aswel -

A few of the fish from today's 6 hour trip
Not ideal conditions today with a good easterly ground swell still there so we did have a few passengers suffering today with sea sickness but they kept fishing regardless and ended up with a few nice fish. -

Catch report from today 6 hour trip
We started the trip running off to our inshore wrecks and the anglers manged to catch half a dozen codling around 3lb as well as a few pouting whiting and mackerel after a few hours the winds rapidly increased and the drift became really fast.
So we decided to run inshore and go back to basics with downtiding, fishing was steady with a good amount of codling been caught again around the 1lb to 3lb area and a few pollock aswel.
Best fish today was a 7lb cod closely followed by a 6lb pollock. -

A complete difference to the fishing yesterday with the winds finally easing enough to run offside.
Today baited traces seamed to fish the best we did manage to get a few fish on lures and shads but baited seamed to be deadly for cod today.
We had a few ling, pollock and coalfish but the majority of today catch was cod and codling.
