Fishing Report by Philip Higgins

Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3
Yesterday we spent the day doing a species hunt although the conditions were far from ideal, Steve Batchelor and Colin Searles and Chris Colledge bagged 17 species including some quality Common and Starry Smoothhounds. The bream fishing was very good at anchor although on the small to medium size they just kept coming. With the Poole Species Comp looming it is a great time to get some practice in trying out new rigs and bait combo's.

To arrange a day afloat give me a call.

A special mention for Graham Broach from Plymouth on his first trip aboard Flamer IV and a Turbot and Brill virgin, he caught one of each weighing 15Ib 13oz and 3Ib 5oz respectfully and was well pleased to say the least.

Report on-board Optimist
May has now well and truly arrived and the fishing is excellent, still no sign of Mackerel in quantity but the there are a few around close to the shore, on the wrecks we have been catching some lovely Pollack and a few Pouting and some silver Whiting and surprisingly the inshore wrecks are fishing very well. On the banks we have had some great trips with some nice Plaice coming aboard, we have also boated Brill and Turbot both nice to see in our part of the world with Launce for bait being caught on the edge of the banks. Bait wise Lures are still working well on the wrecks whilst on the banks we have been experimenting as well as the usual Ragworm and Squid, Mackerel and Launce, Black Lug seems to working well as does Garlic Prawn, even Chilli Prawn has brought Plaice to the boat and as you would expect at this time of year Cuttle works well.

So if you want a great days fishing at a reasonable cost with some like minded people give us a call and look forward to a good day aboard Optimist -

overall the anglers had a good selection of cod, Pollock, Coalfish and a Ballen Wrasse.
Not bad fishing for inshore with neap tides hopefully as the tides build we see even better catches
The water is clearing in patches but looks like the algae is starting to discolour it too. -

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Not much to report of late here at Whitby.
View Boats Page
The algae is still plaguing us and is as bad as it's been for ages. Hopefully reaching its peak now with some clearer water just around the corner. One Mackerel caught yesterday !! First of the year here at Whitby to my knowledge.
Today we had half a dozen lads on board and their total catch for the day was 16 Cod, 2 Pollack and a few Whiting.
A lovely calm and partially sunny day however, made up for the rather slow fishing. The lads were all pleased with the combined efforts though and enjoyed their day.

Fishing Report by Simon Fisher

May 2016 by Simon Fisher
Report on-board Just Fishing
Apologies for a gap in my fishing reports but they will now be updated often........
View Boats Page
Its been a really mixed bag onboard " Just Fishing ". Us along with many others have been hampered by the winds which has meant we have lost a fair few days out.
Fishing the Skerries banks have produced quite a few different species. The Plaice are not yet in great numbers but the ones that have been caught are a nice size. On the deep Gullies we have had plenty of Blonde Ray, one of which was easily pushing late twenties to thirty pound, but unfortunately due to another line being tangled round the hook it snapped off on the surface just before being netted, it gave a great fight though for boat regular Pete Flavell who struggled to get it off the bottom even with his 50lb rod outfit... Shame we didnt boat it but then thats fishing!
On the roughs we've seen some great action targeting Smoothounds and Huss and have also had some Thornback Ray taking the baits......
Out on the wrecks ....as i have said we have lost plenty of days so far this year due to strong winds, the days we have managed to get out have still seen some nice sized Pollock and some very nice Whiting of 3lb plus also now the Cod are starting to show which im hoping will be on par with last years Cod run.
We're looking forward to be targeting the Ling again on the smaller tides, something which we have missed out on so far this year due to weather and charters targeting other species so be sure to check out our website for dates ect...
Also now the water is warming up we will soon be targeting Black Bream which im looking forward to.
Also we are now running our Reef and Roughs trips regularly which will target Pollock,Cod,Ling,Bass and even John Dory, at £50pp for 9hrs its a great price for a day out.
Look forward to seeing you onboard "Just Fishing" out from Brixham soon.
