  • 07/05/2017 Fishing Report by Kevin Wyatt on Obsession (Mevagissey, Cornwall)

    7 May 2017 by Kevin Wyatt

    Report on-board Obsession

    With a decent forecast predicted, Obsession made the most of the weather and headed out to the mid channel wrecks on Sunday. Some cracking fish back on the scene with plenty of prime Pollock upto 22lb and some new season Cod upto 20lb.
    The fishing was very brisk and the Anglers were kept busy on the drifts which was producing 3-4 fish per drift.
    Very satisfying that everyone caught and went home happy with plenty of fillets for the freezer.

  • 07/05/2017 Fishing Report by Malcolm Collins on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)

    7 May 2017 by Malcolm Collins

    Report on-board Just Mary

    First Bream trip of the new 'season' and we dropped straight into some decent Bream on Southbourne Rough. Several good ones for Mark 'Mac' MacNeaney, who's more Irish than Guinness, and for my Neighbour Paul Green who's a true 'Poolite' from our Home Port, all about the 2lb 4oz mark when weighed onboard fresh from the Sea. We still stick to our belief that nature needs to be protected so all the roe bearing females are released whilst the best of the abundant males are retained for the table. This time of year the Black Bream are in prime condition for spawning and eating, fresh from the Sea there can be few better eating fish in my opinion. In total fish numbers, of all species including the Bream, Pollack, Pouting, Dogfish, Wrasse and a Small Conger, we had well over a hundred fish caught with many returned. A cold start to the day in a North Easterly but the wind eased and the Sun shone, good fishing in good company, so come and join us, all the best, ta Malc.

    Report on-board FINS UP

    APRIL 2017
    Well, firstly and most importantly what a fantastic spell of settled weather we have had. Fingers crossed it will continue into the summer!  The weather has enabled us to get out on the fish frequently.  We have been concentrating more trips inshore on the flatties and reefs.
    The Shambles Bank has been giving up some great fish.  One of the biggest Brill I have ever seen was caught by Rob Symes weighing in at a very modest 11lb 9 oz. A few double figure Turbot were a welcome sight after seeing not much else but pollock whilst fishing offshore over the last  few months.
    Tope, Congers,  Spur Dogs have all been landed on the reef and I'm sure it won't be long until we see a scattering of Black Bream.
    Offshore wrecks have started to show more and frequent Ling on both lures and baits . The classic rhubarb and custard sandeel always a favourite for the Ling.
    Pollock are still in fairly good numbers. Some fish starting to look a little skinny though  after shooting their roe.
    Our sponsors Sidewinder have kindly donated a large amount of lures and braided line. If you would like to be in with a chance to win some of this  fabulous  gear, we will be running competition days wrecking on the lures. Please keep an eye on my FB page, I will be releasing the dates soon.
