    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    For a change we choose to punch the tide and go to the Jurassic Coast marks enjoying the stunning scenery on the way, as we arrived the birds were working and as soon as the feathers hit the water we were into decent size Mackeral. After a little search we choose to anchor a spot often fished in years gone past by the legendary Poole skipper Pat Manley and within minutes we were into fish, Pollack, Congers, dogs and plenty of very good quality bream the biggest falling to Andy M at 3lb 7ozs. The good fishing lasted all through the tide and most of the bream were returned.

    It's not just bass coming out at the moment. The hound fishing has been good at times too. We had a great evening with Tony and the lads the other night. Hounds were our main aim and they were feeding well from the first cast. Kevin started us off and Neil wasn't far behind. There were lots of double figure fish and the biggest falling to Neil at 18.5lb. unfortunately around 1lb smaller than his pb (caught around 15 years ago on one of my previous boats) but still a great fish. Tony had a nice little stingray and along with the 30 odd hounds we had lots of bass and other bits and bobs.

  • 25/05/2024 Fishing Report by Andy Savage on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    25 May 2024 by Andy Savage

    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    Not the report that I had hoped to post, but you have to take the rough with the smooth and I think context is important. Tell the good and the bad is what I say.

    The last two days have once again been a real struggle caused by what we believe to be May Bloom in the water. May Bloom is common at this time of year, and is (broadly speaking) an algae bloom caused by increased sunlight and rising temperatures, which reduces the amount of oxygen in the water. The fish don’t like it and sport always suffers due to its presence, but a decent bit of wind can break it up fairly quickly.

    With the tides being on the large side, both days were spent on a mix of wrecks and rough ground. On Friday, we left a bit earlier to arrive at a couple of wrecks at slack water, but after trying four wrecks for just a handful of small Codling and Pouting, we moved onto the rough ground. We tried the five mile, seven mile and nine mile areas but we barely took a life.

    Then the Easterly wind lifted after dinner and the lines were streaming so bad, that we called it a day mid afternoon. Bait traces, Shads and squid baited Hokkai’s were all used, but it was a tough gig, with very little in the fish boxes. The lads aboard were all very patient and thankfully there were no “Freezer Fillers” aboard, so spirits were positive all day.

    Today we started on the three mile ground and had a few drifts while waiting for the tide to ease so we could drop on a wreck. Pleasingly, we actually got a few fish each drift, including the first “Scout” Mackerel of the year.
    We fished two wrecks through slack, with the first being terrible. Trying another one near where we started, we took 2-4 Codling a drift for half an hour. Nothing enormous, but a couple around 5lb were great to see.

    After that we fished the three mile, five mile and seven mile ground for very little return. Thankfully the second slack water in the afternoon gave us another dozen Codling to keep, but it wasn’t great. Same baits and tactics were employed as usual and the lads fished well. It’s just a shame the fish weren’t responsive.

    Hopefully the next report will be a bit more positive.

    Come rain or shine the fishing has been good this week. Numbers of hounds and bass and some nice fish amongst them. The lads have kept a few bass each trip with many more returned. The hounds have been feeding well at times and there have been some decent double figure fish coming out too. Making up the rest of the catches are dogfish, whiting, dabs and tope.
