Report on-board TROT- ON
Today saw us traveling out to the wrecks 18+ miles to see what the fishing was like after the recent BEAST FROM THE EAST storm. Once again Whitby's number 1 Skipper Paul Eddon did not disappoint on the cod hunt. We had around 40 keepers with the biggest around 9lb a few Ling were also boated but the best fish of the day a nice Pollock of around 11lb fell to TROT ON regular "Big Andy" Pendlebury caught on a pennel rig with a squid bait. For your chance of filling your freezer give Paul a call on 07766995947

Fishing Report by Lewis hodder
on Pegasus (Lyme Regis, Dorset)
Feb 2018 by Lewis hodder
Report on-board Pegasus
February’s fishing was typical of the time of year really, we only manage 6 trips 4 of which were on the wrecks and 2 inshore trips.
Inshore fishing produced plenty of whiting up to 3lb, the odd thornback ray, Bull Huss and a fair few small Smoothies.
The wrecking continued to be good with lots of Pollack caught up to 15lb.
Not a lot else to report I’m afraid this month hopefully I’ll have a bit more to write about in next months report when hopefully we will start seeing some good Pollack on the inshore reefs and wrecks and maybe even a few early Plaice and more smoothies on the inshore grounds.
Tight lines

Fishing Report by jon old
on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

Report on-board High Flyer 2
Bringing us up to date we have seen a small influx of codling in recent week the downside now hit by 40mph plus easterly winds with everyone snowed in now! Hoping this cold snap will bring few more fish in on a normal year this month would be spring codling run follwed by the spotty dogs turning up mid to late March then April the start of skate when spring arrives. All we can do see what occurs the better times are just around the corner roll on the smoothounds! Website up to date for those wanting to plan any trips, this year we have been asked to do more tope specials so we will keep eye out for them mid june onwards rule of thumb. Lost out on night trips last year the wind just didnt play ball lets hope for a better season with the jet stream hopefully going the right way for once and all that cable work finished putting a spanner in the works i am looking forward to a better season. Hoping you can join us at some point. Next review soon as we get out until then tight lines everyone. Jon

Fishing Report by Scott Belbin
on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)
Mar 2018 by Scott Belbin
Report on-board Galloper
Following on from my last report on here the fishing has been quite good to start off the year here at mersea. The weather has been pretty favourable until this week and we have managed to get most trips in. what we are hatching has varied quite a bit depending on the tides and where we can get to. As many others boats in the area have reported there have been far better numbers of codling than the last couple of seasons. Most trips are producing a few codling and thorn-back rays with 6-12 codling an average sort of trip. Our best trip so far this year has been 23 codling along with a few rays, pouting, a dogfish, a bass and lots of whiting up to 43cm! this cold snap seems to have slowed some of the fish up since then but I would expect it to improve as we approach the end of the season.
The dogfish and thorn-backs don’t tend to like the cold weather much but when we do get a couple of weeks of warmer weather they will soon push into our shallow coastal waters which warm up first. With any luck we will still have codling mixed in too which along with the other bits and bobs makes for some nice spring sport.

Has a great day with Lee the skipper of the Kelsey Leigh. He tries hard to ensure his clients are on the fish from the word go.
He is one of the most enthusiastic skippers I have met, and he passes that on the his clients .His personality is what makes the days trip very enjoyable, I would recommend a day out on the Kelsey Leigh to anyone want to try Sea Fishing he will cater for beginners to experienced anglers.
