Report on-board High Flyer 2
Lost yesterday Sat 8th due to strong winds again, stirred the sea up a bit for today Sunday 9th bit of swell still about keeping us inshore once again. The forcast of SW winds is wrong again straight southerly all day making wind against tide on the flood rather testing to say the least. With the anchor trying to fight the boat ,the swell building and the wind straight in our faces i thought the lads all done well today. Before the flood started we managed to pick up nice little sizeable codling, few whiting keepers, bit slower than i would have liked it to be honest. The flood brought another codling pictured here with Len, two spotty dogs, and more undersize codling and whiting so decided to finish off with a move back north which resluted in couple of nice flatties and yes more undersize codling and whiting! Probably just the time of year with a lot of small fish about, would like to mention numerous sizable whiting were returned along with the spotty dogs well done men nice to see a bit of conservation. Thanks to Jez for organizing his crew, Leo,Alex,Nick and Lee, and also to Ian,Tony,Gary and Greg first timers on the Flyer hope you enjoyed your day. Many thanks lads good to see few dogs getting about inshore , wont be long for the skate then the smoothies. Roll on the summer. All the best. Jon. (High Flyer)

Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)
9 Mar 2014 by Bob Marshall
Report on-board Duke IV
The inshore fishing here at Ramsgate is now improving with quality Skate in most areas, along with plenty of Codling, these fish are small but give us hope for the future. Smoothounds, Bass and Mackerel are arriving now and will offer fine sport over the next few months. Still lots of herring showing on the sounder so plenty of fodder for the large Bass that are heading our way, always on the lookout for an easy meal!
Herring has been the bait of choice for the Skate throughout the winter but as summer moves on they will be looking for mackerel.
Squid remains a good bait for most species and the Hounds are very partial to a whole one and when the water warms sufficiently the crabs will peel giving us more bait choice!
The school Bass will be shoaling on the banks, great fun on the feathers or Hokkie lures. Clear water is a must though and the winds we are getting can stir up the water, then the humble lugworm becomes the better bait!
The wreck fishing season starts soon and we will soon be out there drift fishing jellies and shads for the Cod, Pollack and Bass.
Still some weekend dates available and each Thursday for individuals, so dust off the rods and come fishing aboard Duke IV.

Fishing Report by Rich Cope
on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
6 Mar 2014 by Rich Cope
Report on-board Mistress
we managed a day at sea again this week on a lull between weather systems!
Tony Elves fished with us the other week, enjoying his trip so much, he booked himself and his friend James on for another Trip Uptiding for the Cod.
we enjoyed steady sport most of the day, the water looked to be clearing a tad which seemed to result in the bites being a bit finicky, non the less, the lads managed about 20 codlings between them for the day all between 2lb and 4lb.
Pictured are Tony & James with a few of their fish for the day, well done men!
We have a few spaces this week, The weather forecast is looking settled and we're looking at having a crack at some early season wrecking, if youre interested drop me a line on 07977 436 903
cheers Rich View Boats Page

Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3
After a few wet and windy months, Ocean Warrior 3 managed to get out to do some offshore wreck fishing.
We had an enjoyable day and found that there are some really big Pollock starting to show out on the deep water wrecks now. Chris Warner had the biggest of the day with a cracking 17lb 3oz caught on the sidewinders.
We are looking forward to getting back out to the deep water wrecks again soon.
We still have some spaces available, so why not come and join us if you fancy a day out wreck fishing. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Ian Buckingham
on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
1 Mar 2014 by Ian Buckingham
Report on-board Mistress
On a slow day for all the Whitby boats Rich gave his all and after much hard work got everyone onto a few fish. The bites were finnicky and the fish were very localised in tight pockets. I had a flurry of activity and got some decent codlings in a frantic period on the flood tide. My wife bagged a couple too so smiles all round.
Cheers Rich...you know we'll be back. View Boats Page
