  • 05/2017 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    May 2017 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Hi all,

    The last few trips for the anglers on the Shy-Torque have been very mixed indeed.

    On the days when the weather and tides have been in our favour we have been seeing some half decent catches with cod to 15lb being taken. On the days when the tides have been big and the wind has hindered us we have been struggling to say the least. Some days we've only managed around 20 to 30 fish.

    The good news is that the water is definately clearing with the majority of our better fish falling to the jelly lurres. Shads, Sidewinders etc.

    The tides are big at present but do start falling away next week. We have room on most days next week so if you fancy a bash give me a call on any of the numbers. We will sail with a minimum of 3 anglers.

    07733 233352 (Boat direct)
    07747 848406
    01947 603472.

    Paul from Manchester is pictured with our best cod of last week at 15lbs.

    Cheers and tight lines
    Rich.

  • 05/2017 Fishing Report by Colin Penny on Flamer IV (Weymouth, Dorset)

    May 2017 by Colin Penny

    Report on-board Flamer IV

    While other anglers Flounder, Flamer IV anglers are happy Soles and a Dab hand at catching Plaice. A drifting session with ragworm, prawn and squid strip baits produced Plaice ranging from 2Ib 8oz to 4Ib 14oz. Rick Hawkins landing the biggest weighing in at 4Ib 14oz which is the best Plaice landed on Flamer IV this year and is pictured.Rick won a Flamer IV Catch of the day trophy for his flatty.
    LOOK - Since the unfortunate demise of the mussel beds I have been trying out different areas looking for Plaice and have had some reasonable success with Plaice up to 5Ib 13oz and again this year I am doing the same and have had Plaice generally ranging from 2Ib to 4Ib 14oz.
    ON JUNE 14th 2017 I am going to do a Plaice trip trying the marks/areas I have found and may be look and try some new areas. If you would like to come along on this trip then please contact me a.s.a.p.

    Report on-board Flamer IV

    FLAMER IV ANGLING BREAK - Stephan Attwood, Bryan Osbourne,Kevin Clark were joined by like minded individuals for an angling break for a few days. A variety of fishing was done on Reef,Banks and Wrecks which saw several species caught like Turbot,Rays,Plaice,Cod,Pollack,Ling,Smooth Hounds,Gurnards and many more.Stephan Attwood did particularly well with the Ray fishing.He was also the winner of the friendly and slightly competitive competition done during the angling break,Bryan Osbourne was Runner Up, Kevin Clark was the weakest Link. (Pictured are Stephan and Bryan with their trophies.
    Weymouth Angling Breaks
    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.
    Planning your trip well in advance is essential you need to arrange your boat booking and your accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment, some of my regular groups plan their trips at least 12 months in advance, this allows them to discuss with me the best tides for the type of fishing they are targeting.

  • 05/2017 Fishing Report by Ross Parham on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

    May 2017 by Ross Parham

    Report on-board Spot On!

    April and May have turned out to be a great months weather wise and has enabled 'Spot On' to get in some great fishing on the mid channel wrecks which have produced some great catches in the shape of Pollock, Ling, cod, coalfish, whiting, pouting, bass, conger eels and tub gurnards.

    The skerries bank has been very slow in producing plaice but when anchored in the correct spots it has produced some great ray fishing with Blonde Ray's being the most productive, other Ray's have included spotted and small eyed Ray's.

    The first trip to Guernsey in the middle of May saw a 4 day trip consisting of plenty of cod and pollock on the crossing along with some good action on the banks, topped off with some large black bream fishing.
    Species landed on this trip was: cod, pollock, Ling, coalfish, pouting, ballan wrasse, turbot, brill, blonde ray, dogfish, tub gurnard, red gurnard, mackerel, Sandeel, black bream.

    Top lures have been sidewinder black and pink taking plenty of fish. 1 cod came to an old sidewinder that a guy has had in his box for years! Just goes to show these lures last the test of time!
    Top rigs bream and conger/Ling traces have worked very well and have been used in great success.

    Thanks again for my sponsors.

    Taking bookings for 2018!!! Get in quick!
