    Report on-board Razorbill 3

    Hi Well it's been a long time since I put a report on here but I thought a review of the summer fishing would make a good report, After a poor winter fishing season the spring arrived and yes we were fishing for Thornbacks with good numbers of fish up to 16lb then when the weather warmed up we started to see good numbers of Bass , there were lots of fish from 30 to 40cm and a good number fish over 42 cm and at least the anglers could keep a fish each unlike last year when it was catch and release, but that's another story, So with the late spring Bass and Thornback fishing, the better weather arrived and so did the Smoothounds with good numbers of double figure fish caught up to22lb, So fishing was close inshore with good mixed bags of Bass, Smoothounds and Thornback rays , Oh yes, there might have been a number of Dogfish as well..... well you can't have everything. I have downloaded the best pictures of the fishing over the spring and summer.

  • 30/08/2019 Fishing Report by Colin Penny on Flamer IV (Weymouth, Dorset)

    Report on-board Flamer IV

    Lee Warlow and members of the "Master Baiters SAC" from Swansea enjoyed their two day Angling Break aboard Flamer IV and caught 22 species over the two days which included Turbot, Black Bream, Small Eyed Ray, Undulate Ray, Bass, Bull Huss, Congers, Red Gurnard, Plaice etc. The guys did well on day 1 in breezy and choppy conditions catching Black Bream, Turbot and Rays while drift fishing. The weather was better on day 2 but the guys had to be patient as the fish were playing hard to get as we anchored a few reef marks and did some drift fishing.

    Flamer IV catch of the day trophies were awarded to Lee Warlow on day one and Zac on day two, they were both pleased with their trophies.

    The club have already booked for April 2020 with a days Wreck fishing and a Flat Fish day planned.

    Pictured is Lee with his first ever Undulate Ray which he caught while drifting a Bank using a two hook flowing trace with Mackerel strips as bait presented on Sakuma size 4/0 Stinger hooks.

    A few days away fishing out of Weymouth along with the social side is a nice trip to do.The variety of fishing and the amount of different species caught at Weymouth is probably second to none.There are plenty of places to stay which are angler friendly and some excellent places to wine and dine around the harbour and in Weymouth Town centre.If you want to try a Weymouth Angling Break then contact me, I cater for whole boat charters and individuals.

    Report on-board Mirage

    Considering it was so late in the season (Sunday 7th July) we had a fabulous day catching an average of ten fish each (Pollack and Ling). Dave is a wonderful Skipper, always finds the marks and always ensures we have a brilliant day. A huge thank you to the Crewman Simon who really looked after us throughout the day. We REALLY did not want the day to stop, it was FABULOUS.
