Report on-board Galloper
The summer fishing is now in full swing. The other day we started off catching bass on lures, then at anchor for the best of the tide and back on the lures on the way home. Rick was top rod with the anchored fishing with some nice hounds up the 13lb and a lovely bass. There were also whiting, dogfish, pouting, dabs and tope caught. All in all a pretty typical general trip for the time of year with pleasant weather and some decent fish.

Report on-board Brigand
After a short break in Norway wrestling Halibut & Wolffish (more on that in a later post) and a couple of days putting smiles on faces inshore Bream fishing we headed to our happy place today - the Offhsore wrecks.
View Boats Page
Slated as Pollock & Cod trip as this is the time of year we generally see the Cod appearing and it didn't disappoint. Some fantastic double figure Pollock along with a box full of good table fish in the 4-7lb range and the Cod also were obliging!
Species boated today;
Cod
Coalfish
Pollock
Wrasse
Mackerel
Tub Gurnard
Launce
Dogfish
Pouting .... of course!
A beautiful day to be out on the Ocean on flat calm seas and fishing in T shirts at 0800hrs - really felt like Summer has arrived.
Great fishing next to Alex Brown and enjoying a head to head tussle with a fish a drift each until the arms gave in and we realised there was a couple of hours filleting ahead!
If you would like to join us for some great wrecking in the coming weeks you can view availability on our website calendar.
Best wishes

Thanks to Collin for organising a short run out for a few hours in the sun this morning!
View Boats Page
We didn't stray too far from the piers and found any amount of smaller Ling, some decent Codling, Mackerel, Wrasse, Pouting, Whiting, and small Coalies etc. We were even escorted by Dolphins first thing this morning which is always great to see.
Everyone will definitely be eating well tonight; the lads guessed we probably had well over 100 throw backs, and our fair share of sunburn! -

It was another cracking run out today, but the offshore wind scuppered the plans for the majority of it.
View Boats Page
We stuck inside on the inner grounds and steadily picked away on smaller Codling, Ling, Coalies, Whiting, Pouting, Mackerel and even a Haddock.
When the wind subsided we made the most of the last 20 minutes, and David found a solid stamp Codling on the last drop of the day.
Massive thanks to John, Andreas and the lads for travelling up from Lancaster, Liverpool and Birmingham for a run out! -

Massive thanks to Will for organising a run out celebrating his birthday today.

We had interchangeable weather all day, but for the most part it was sunny with flat seas.
We stopped for some Mackerel in the morning for both bait and the pan, and then targeted Codling for the rest of the day. -

Huge thanks to the guys who arrived in a party from Northampton today. We set out to very choppy, chilly, windy and wet conditions.
View Boats Page
Thankfully it settled down and we stopped to let the lads fill their buckets with mackerel in the morning, whilst also picking up Coalies, Whiting, small Pollack and Pouting.
Once they'd had their fill with mackerel, we targeted Codling and a seemingly never-ending stream of lovely clean fish came aboard until the very last drop of the day. Peter won the sweep with a fantastic 16lb12oz Ling. -

It was a foggy and choppy start to the day, with some sunshine making an appearance after lunch, followed by a choppy run home.

The lads braved it well with great banter and maximum effort all day, resulting in some cracking fish for the pan!
