The lads didnt want to go till 9am so a late start but as the morning went on the wind increased i had a wreck only a couple of mile off i wanted to target the water is clearing by the day and some of wrecks tight inshore fish there nuts off in the right conditions and today my choice proved to be the right one .
Steve also soon got right into the action they had a little wager so competition was a litte fierce but all in great humour the lads had a great day one they wont forget they have got a few trips booked so now shads are all the rage in there books they love it he they are with 2 nice fish they got together they chris ended up with around 25 cod and steve 18 so not a bad day on late start and we got back in harbour at 2 pm due to the wind getting stronger .UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Sea Otter 2

Fishing Report by TERRY BATT
on Vanishing Point-2 (Bradwell Marina, Essex)
May 2015 by TERRY BATT
Report on-board Vanishing Point-2
Well, Saturday didn't disappoint...!!! the wind was blowing at over 30 mph all day, but fortunately we had wind and tide together for half the day and the afternoon session OK as we managed to get some shelter from a lovely sand bank exposed by low water..! We had a fair few Thornback's heaps of Doggies, the odd Codling still about, and one of the boats fishing close by had a few Smoothounds, so that was good to hear.
View Boats Page
On Sunday, we got up to be greeted with very little wind..!!! and when we got to the boat the sea was virtually flat,..!! hah ha,,!! I thought as I scrambled through my little black book to see where we were going to go on these relatively small dropping tides..? well I had a plan already in my mind, and God I wish I had gone with my gut feeling, but no, I went with notes I had made over the years, and after stopping on the mark which was my gut feeling, then decided to push on another 3,5 mile East with big expectations...... DISASTER I fell flat on my face, after two and a half hour fishing all we had to show for it was 1 skate and a shed load of Doggies.
So with a sinking feeling I asked the lads, who I must say were fantastic..!!! to pull in their lines and went back 3.5 miles to the West, to the original mark I was going to stop on at first..!! and within 5 minutes we had the first of many Skate on the boat, so I am glad to report we went from Zero to hero in one move..!!
So sometimes it doesn't matter how good you are, or you think you are..? I think it right to be honest and sometimes say...hey..!! I got it wrong, then go about digging deep and try you best to put things right.
We had a Romanian chap out on the boat, who last month brought a beach caster with him, and I politely told him the rod was too big for the boat, and needed to bring a smaller one next time...!! well yesterday he did, it was overall 18" inches long.....lol but he had a regular size boat rod as well, but still put out his little rod for a laugh, and bugger me, he had two lovely Skate on it, he was so funny.
Another chap on the boat was Mark, a man after my own heart, likes to try new and different methods to try and catch fish, and this was never more evident than yesterday he tried some fish pellets with a special cent and again he caught a couple of Skate on them..!!! well done Mark good result.
Ok guys with the hounds starting to show now, and we have had the first of the Bass now things are looking up for hopefully a good summer of fishing.
As Nicola and I only started fishing with our new large Catamaran and opened our bookings diary a few weeks ago, we still have quite a few dates to fill, so if you read our reviews kind customers have posted, and fancy a trip on this amazing vessel, please call and have a chat......

Report on-board Moonstone - now Why Worry!
A final break in the weather allowed us to get out with regular crew from South East Anglers.
View Boats Page
The lads wanted to target Black bream on the Kingmere Rocks 5 miles out from Littlehampton.
There was a bit of a swell but nothing too bad so we set off at 7am and after a 30 minute steam we were on our first mark.
Within 20 minutes the first Bream were landed...healthy males around the 3lb mark.
As there were only 4 guys on board I stuck a rod out myself......a simple flowing trace with a size 1 Sakuma 450 Chinu loaded with half a squid head.
After netting a couple of Bream for the lads I thought I'd better check my bait. It felt like it was snagged in the rocks at first, but then it moved and was very heavy!
After a few minutes a nice Undulate Ray came to the surface....estimated at around 17lb and safely returned. Unbelievable on a bream hook!
The tide turned and the fishing died off so we steamed West to a Ray mark....and it didn't disappoint.
We had some nice but small Thornbacks and a succession of smaller female bream to finish the day off.
All in all a good day out with some good fish....and the Sakuma Chinu's doing the business again. -

fishing still remains good even though the weather has been patchy. however the last 3 trips have produced around 70 fish per trip. and the day was no exception, with again around 60 - 70 fish mainly cod but some ling and Pollack as well. nothing massive cod to 7-8 lbs
but everybody happy with bags of 6- 10 fish per angler

Report on-board Mistress
The weather here at whitby has been an absolute pain the arse recently, keeping us in tied up! With a gap in the weather yesterday we managed to get a small crew of 4 together,
View Boats Page
The good fishing continued for us the lads absolutely buzzing with the day, the 5 of us each nailing the best part of 25 cod apiece.
We got to our first mark and never left all morning, we dropped our shads and drift after drift every rod bent into fish, excellent sport on light gear.
The weather deteriorated as the day went on, and we moved mark to mark raking a few fish each spot but the afternoon definately slower than the morning
The biggest fish would of been maybe 8lb to Mike Dearing from Beverley, but most fish were in the 3-5lb bracket, Again the lads threw a few back apiece not being greedy and just keeping the best.
If you fancy a trip with us give me a call on 07977 436903 or message me on Mistress Sea Angling Charters FB page
