Report on-board High Flyer 2
Set out on a lovely calm day with a wind forcast for later. Headed out for those first skate or bass armed with every bait know to man. Out to a bank only few miles out that has come up trumps for me for those early spring fish. Started off with whiting and dads, few nice doggies among them. Great to see our first smoothhounds of the season come aboard although only small. After slack the wind started to get up proving uncomfortable on the bank so we headed in off a local mark where Paul caught two nice codling pictured here.More whiting and dabs along with the doggies came aboard in all not a bad day for this time of year. Big thanks to the Stamford lads Keith,Ian,Adi this weeks winner! also Paul,and Ken, together with Ben from Northampton, Charlie and son Karl first time on the Flyer and regular customer Paul Layton , appreciate all you guys travelling so far hope you enjoyed your day. Jon.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Whitby's spring angling competition started here on Saturday. Sadly with the current Northerly airflow down the East coast at the moment we haven't been able to get the competitors away. When we have been this last week though the fishing has been quite good. The inshore ground marks are starting to produce with some nice cod to 9lb on the shad.
The competition runs until 29th April so there is still time to try and grab yourselves the winning first prize of £1000.00 !! We have a couple of days with odd spaces left. Check our website's availability calendar for spaces.
Pictured is Martin Berry from Retford Notts with a nice cod of 9lb. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by carl porter
on Hard Labour (Wallasea Island, Essex)

Report on-board Hard Labour
8 rods on the boat today, a couple of seasoned anglers and a few novices. The trip out to the offshore grounds was a bit lively to say the least with wind against tide, but once the hook was set the boat sat steady at anchor. Action on the ebb tide was hectic with skate after skate hitting the deck and at times 3 rods into fish at the same time.As the tide slowed so did the fishing although fish were still coming to the net steadily. The flood started to fish much the same as the ebb finished but picked up as the tide made. There were a few more dogfish around this week as the water temp has increased. Also we saw a greater number of smoothhounds with the largest going just over 8 lb. Final tally for the day was well over 50 roker on the boat with each angler taking a couple for the table and the rest returned. No monsters this week biggest skate was a tad over 11 lb. the crew on board had a really good day out with plenty of fish and the weather went in our favour too.

Fishing Report by Ron Angel
on Why Worry (Burnham-On-Crouch, Essex)

Report on-board Why Worry
An early start yesterday was called for as I wanted to get the best part of the tide up our arse to take us Offshore. Luke and Dan was my guests today and Andy the trusty crew.As long as I have a 'Booking' and the weather is good then 'We go fishing' no messing around on Why Worry for a minimum amount of crew. Armed with brand new Squid and the finest Herrings we were away from the marina for 6.15am.A good run at 23knts for just 3150 revs now the boat is clean again.The fishing was hot from the off. The only problem on the ebb was the amount of Dogfish in the swim. As long as a Dogfish never grabbed the bait within 10 seconds of it being on the bottom, then a Roker did. The only grumble was the Roker were a little on the small side. Perfectly sizeable to keep but I wanted to find the boys some bigger ones. We had a short move after a couple of hours and we did indeed find some bigger ones. As the tide got going the fishing died a little so another short move put us back on them. This time the fish were really coming aboard in numbers and very few Dogfish amongst them. Bearing in mind it was only maybe 200 yards from where we fished the the ebb, the flood tide produced bigger Rokers and the Dogfish had petered out. Luke also added a few good sized Whiting into the mix.
I don’t know how many Roker we had all told. We kept 15 and put more than that back. The bigger females went back as well as many others as we had more than enough for what everybody wanted. All in all an excellent days fishing, the weather was perfect and the company perfect too.
Just to say bait wise, Herring absolutely was the top bait today.It murdered the Squid in the Roker stakes. View Boats Page

Report on-board Atlantic Diver / Atlantic Explorer
Easter has seen the start of plenty of Cod coming in aboard Atlantic Diver. We were lucky enough to have Mackerel putting in an early appearance , so plenty of fish for the Bar-B-Que! Bottlenose Dolphins were also in Newquay Bay yesterday to the delight of our Sea Anglers...The Grey seals which return to the harbour each year are back to check out the catch of the day and fishing for themselves at Fly Cellars , just outside the Harbour.
