ian was waiting for us at kingswear as we walked down the jetty, he helped us aboard and got the kettle on....it was a rather grey start but not alot of wind as we steamed out of dartmouth heading for the famous skerries bank in search of that great eating fish the plaice.
Most of us were using light 6 - 12lb outfits with braid, 4 - 5oz watch leads and various types of rigs, double hook wishbones, long flowing double and single hook traces, but all were blinged up in the typical plaice style, beads, spoons, and some even had star lights.....baits used was rag worm, prawns, mussles. cockles and peeler, tipped off with a thin strip of squid or cuttle. It was the prawns, cockle and mussle baits that gave us most success throughout the day.
Wasn't long before the first fish came over the gunnels, a nice whiting, soon followed by the first plaice, gurnards and a doggie.....a couple set out some feathers and soon had mackerel and launce for the bait freezer, plus some good size mackerel for the table too.
As fishing slowed down ian moved us into some deeper water, which kept the fish coming with more plaice and a bonus turbot that brought smiles all round. Even the sun came out!
By the end of the day we all went home with plaice for dinner, and the species landed included, plaice, dab, whiting, mackerel, launce, turbot, dogfish and red, grey and tub gurnards....
Quite a few fish were lost at first by lifting into the fish too early, so good advice is when you feel the bite, let off some line. View Boats Page

Report on-board Channel Warrior
None stop fishing today for Andy and the postmen from Chard who managed to fill the cold box with bream Pollock and a bass, the bigger bream were kept, all smaller ones returned also 3 species of wrasse, dogs and some large pout. The biggest bream went to James Viney on a whole squid intended for a cod. Tried an inshore wreck the lads tried various artificials, although the wreck was showing bass on it they would not take the artificials, other boats that were lucky to find a few mackerel and fish them live did get some bass. At last the bass are turning up now. In the coming weeks now I will target them
Tight lines and good fishing to you all View Boats Page

Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3
This week we had the Lewes 'Really Wrecked Sea Angling Club' out for a trip. They caught 12 nice sized Blonde Rays, the biggest was 26lb 5oz which was a new club record and went to Adam Frost. It was great sport on light tackle. All the Blonde Rays were weighed and returned to sea alive.
On the inshore Cod fishing marks the fishing has also been good. We have had Cod up to 23lb and there are also plenty of Whiting showing on the inshore marks as well.
We have still got spaces available mid-week, so if you fancy a trip contact Dave on 07966 377145 or check out the calendar for available dates. You can also check out our latest news page on www.oceanwarrior3.com View Boats Page

Report on-board Optimist
A good day out on the 9th Oct to some inshore wrecks looking for Bass we were not disappointed as several made it to the surface along with Pollack, Pout, and a lone Scad. We also have evidence of shark as only the head to the gills of a Pout made it to the surface with a nice sharp bite mark where the rest of it should have been. Look forward to seeing you aboard the Optimist soon.
