  • 17/09/2017 Fishing Report by Phil White on Chinook 3 (Bradwell Marina, Essex)

    17 Sep 2017 by Phil White

    Report on-board Chinook 3

    The weather has been very unsettled over the last few weeks but it is finally settling down and this has allowed us to get offshore for the Bass.

    We have had some cracking fish with the best at over 8lb, these fish are shoaling up on the offshore banks before moving south for the winter, now is the best time of the year for us to target them before they go, best baits are worm and squid.

    There are good numbers of thornbacks showing in all areas offshore and a few starting to show inshore now as well, these fish are a good size although thinner because they have spawned, best baits are squid and fish.

    The whiting are showing up in all areas although inshore is best, especially along the shoreline off of Walton and Clacton, best baits are squid, lug and mackerel.

    Most of the smoothounds have moved off although there are plenty of smaller ones further offshore, the bigger ones have gone quite early this season with the drop in sea temperature, however this might be a good sign for the cod.

    Talking of which, hopes are high that we might see some cod this winter, certainly there are some on the south coast already and sea temperatures are down on this time last year so keep everything crossed and keep checking social media for the latest reports.

  • 09/2017 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Sep 2017 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    17.09.2017.

    The late Summer angling competition finished today at Whitby.

    Sadly none of the boats moved at all this last week due to the constant crappy Northerly breeze we had with us. The competition was effectively won last Sunday with a lovely Ling of 19 lb 4 oz caught by Mathew Weatherhead from Wetherby North Yorks fishing aboard the Shy-Torque III.
    Mathew had fished the previous weekend too but didn't manage anything of any size.

    Prior to Mathew's winning fish the competition was being led by Simon Wong from Manchester with another fine Ling of 17 lb 7 oz also boated on the Shy-Torque III (pics in the gallery)

    I'd like to thank everyone who fished with us in this years event and hopefully we will see you all again soon.

    I would also like to thank our sponsors for the late Summer competition, Focus Training and Mr. Chips.

    As ever we will be working right through the winter and we still have room on some of the weekends. Check the calendar for availability. We will sail with just 3 anglers. The latter end months can very often fish as well, if not better than the Summer months here at Whitby.

  • 16/09/2017 Fishing Report by Philip Higgins on Mistress Linda / San Gina3 (Poole, Dorset)

    16 Sep 2017 by Philip Higgins

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    Instead of doing Ray fishing during the slack tides we gambled and choose to hunt for the illusive Trigger Fish as the Marden Edwards group had not landed any between them, after a slow start Chris landed a new boat record of a Trigger double shot then Graeme not to be out done landed 5 Triggers on the trot, the organiser Pete Evans got in on the act followed by Simon Rushent in total we had 11 Triggers, lots of Plaice Bream and Gurnards.
    In all it was a great days fishing and as the tides build for next week more Trigger action to follow (hopefully)

  • 12/09/2017 Fishing Report by jon old on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    12 Sep 2017 by jon old

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well its been a poor start weather wise to September cant remember ever such windy conditions most trips have been keeping us inshore. Despite that plenty of fish mainly on the small side to be honest plagued with small spotty dogs some trips others picked up few skate with some of the last remaining smoothounds before they go one or two nice sizes. Havent been able to get to the bass banks so hence no recent photos not worth photographing the odd small schoolie were getting but great to see our future stocks present. The whiting starting to come in in numbers now those anglers keeping a few have been about 35cm plus the limit of 27cm i think is too small personally, pretty soon they will become a serious pain as always but it all adds to the sport. Reports of codling from further south is good news so hopefully wont be too long before they visit us need some cold weather to start , leaves off the trees and ice on the windscreens cant wait myself! Next report will cover our new vessel should be operational in next week when will fill you in on details and pictures. Until then tight lines everyone.
