    Report on-board Che Sara Sara

    Lumpy old start to the day punching out through the waves to the 12 mile reef mark.The state of the tide and wind produced a lovely slow drift which soon had us into some nice pollock. The action was steady and at the end of the day we had well over 100 pollock 3lb to 8lb, 1 nice cod 8lb we dont see these very often, gurnard, ling and wrasse. Plenty of mackeral still about nice small bait size which were used to entise the pollock as well as sand eel, shads and rubber eels of various colours.The pollock were being caught on the first few turns and also maybe as far as 30 to 40 turns up good sport on light tackle very enjoyable day.

    Report on-board Supanova II

    Well well well...........

    What a summer we are having!!! the wind just doesn't blow and the suns out! Loving it!

    Just 2 lost days in the whole of August which for the last few years has been unheard of.

    August historically can be a funny month with the fishing and this year proved to be one of those funny months.
    Some goof]d fishing inshore with great Plaice fishing and bream along with some lovely undulates and Blondes but all this has been on the small tides. As soon as the tides have built the excitement grows for better Bream and Bass, well unfortunately throughout August apart from the odd Day this just didn't happen.

    Some interesting days on this years Conger Comp with numbers greatly reduced on all boats than previous years. Maybe the cold winter is to blame???? This years winning eel was a cracker of 82lb with Supanova's best of 68lb falling to Phil Rogers.

    The next neap tides after the conger comp saw us venture off to find some more congers with again mixed results on various wrecks, the highlight of this trip however was some amazing Bream fishing with around 30 fish landed and all but 2 fish were over 3lb, with the best of 4lb 14oz falling to Phil Dolan (pictured).

    September sees competition time in weymouth so watch this space for updates.

    Once again thanks to all who continue to support the port.

    Tight line,

    Lyle

    Report on-board Sea Otter 2

    Had all regular lads onboard yesterday with a good forcast the last one for a while by the look of things i decide to have a steam out the 20 mile the cod fishing at this time can be a little bit better out there than inshore around this time thats because its just alive with masses of food for the cod inshore and they can become a little bit picky the ling are in droves at the moment they feed like mad as the herring shoals have now arrived and just gorge themselves .

    Steve with one of his cod some real quality fish about .

    Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3

    The weather has been quite nice of late and the fishing has been good. There have been some nice Conger, Cod and Black Bream coming up at anchor on the wrecks.

    The Turbot and Brill fishing has been amazing this week. Really Wrecked SAC from Lewes had a cracking day out Turbot and Brill fishing. They caught their club record Turbot of 21lb 4oz, caught by Phil Brooks from Haywards Heath. He caught it on an offshore sandbank using a mackerel fillet. Total catch on the day was 42 Turbot and 12 Brill up to 7lb, they put 8 Turbot back to sea alive as they were on the small side. This is Phil Brooks with club record catch. There are more pictures on my latest news page on www.oceanwarrior3.com.

    If you fancy a fishing trip for Turbot and Brill, give me a call on 07966 377145.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    03.09.2013.
    It's that ling time of year again lads!!

    Plenty of ling showing all over the place with a good number into double figures. Sadly not a great number of cod here at present but I fancy when the herring start spawning ( which won't be too far away ) we'll see an influx of those too.

    The weather here is still making the fishing a sheer pleasure with flat calm days upon us again for a few more days.

    Just a quick note lads,
    The dates for next years competitions are now open and we are taking bookings for them now as well as all other general fishing days. We have the 2014 diary and tide tables now for all bookings.

    They are :-
    Spring April 5th - 20th inc
    Summer :- June 21st - July 13th inc
    Late summer :- Sept 13th - 28th inc

    Dates are starting to go already so get your trips sorted and booked for another chance of the big money!!

    Tight lines to one and all,

    Rich

  • 01/09/2013 Fishing Report by Malcolm Collins on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)

    1 Sep 2013 by Malcolm Collins

    Report on-board Just Mary

    Apologies to those of you who regularly read my Fishing Reports on this site but I've been on Holiday abroad to visit the in-laws ! Anyway I'm back now so here goes ! One report that I should have done before leaving these shores was of the last weekend in July. Saturday 27/7 a Hire rod party enjoyed sport with plenty of Tope and a nice Undulate Ray of 18lb 0oz for Anoush Shamsaie on his first ever boat fishing trip. 'Anyone Can Fish' and catch Specimen sized fish on 'Just Mary'.....we prove it time and time again.....! Sunday 28/7 saw some poor weather conditions develop but the lads and lass from down Yeovil way still had good sport with Bass, Mackerel, Plaice, Dogfish, and other Summer Species both outside and in the Harbour. So Holiday..... then back to Fishing Trips.....On Saturday 31/8 a Hire rod party again had good sport catching Tope and a Specimen sized Undulate Ray of 18lb 4oz for Gary Gunning from Swindon, another personal best. Sunday 1/9 saw us pushing further offshore to a lovely mark only accessible on real neap tides off the Jurassic Coast. A great day's fishing was had by the three regulars, Kev the Chippie, Johnnie the Brickie and his mate Gary from Southampton who were joined by six Hire rod Anglers including two who drove from Birmingham ! We had Conger to 40lb plus, an Undulate for Johnnie of 12lb 8oz plus several other good ones lost by the Hire rod lads ('patience lads, take your time, don't try and winch them in'.....How many times did I say it !!!) , good Bream in good numbers nudging the 3lb mark, Tub and Red Gurnard, Tope, Doggies, Pout, Whiting, Scad, Mackerel, and a big edible crab.....to name just a few of the many species we landed......'Hectic !'.....as Kev the Chippie said.....! Then a Youth Club trip on Monday for the Townsend Youth ......good lads and we caught fish.....again......I keep saying it and eventually it will sink in......'Anyone Can Fish' on 'Just Mary'......AND catch fish.....listen and you will learn.....and come back for more.....!
    All the Best, Malc
