    Super day out with Cliff and co. Despite a slowish start, Cliff broke the silence with a cracking 13lb 12oz Cod which was followed by a couple of Skate and several Whiting and dogfish around the other anglers on the boat.

    We moved on slack water to chase a few more Cod on the Ebb and the move proved successful getting a further 6 cod to 9lb 12oz and 7 more Thornbacks, including a 13lb 12oz fish to Cliff (again). Last knockings and Michael who had had a couple of 6lb Cod latched into a very large Ray that found its freedom by breaking the main line!!!!!!!!!

    Cracking day, thanks chaps, see you in a few weeks!

  • 18/03/2012 Fishing Report by Ray Martin on PLAN B (Southend-On-Sea, Essex)

    Report on-board PLAN B

    What a lovely weekend .. Weather was spot on with light wind and glorious sunshine. Fishing showed first signs that summer is on the way. We caught some nice Roker (thornback rays)and loads and loads of whiting. This weekend we will go to the normal spring thornback hotspots and hope they come in as large numbers as last year.. we averaged 30 a trip.
    Remember to use at least a 40lb trace as the thornbacks grind the line and one of the anglers on the boat next to me found out the hard way seeing a nice double lost at the net when his trace snapped. Also check the trace regularly for damage as when the line is under strain it will snap...

    Report on-board Amino

    What a cracking day!! On their 3rd trip on board Amino, Derek and Graham were not only blessed with a flat calm sea and some early sunshine but also some good sport! 8lb Thornback for Graham(new pb) first cast was followed by a succession of similar sized fish along with Whiting to 1lb+ on the flood. As the tide turned and the ebb eased a few more Thornbacks showed up along with Cod to 6lb.At the death, Derek latched into a good fish and after some heavy persuasion up it popped and into the net went a 15lb Thornback, a pb for derek and new boat record!!Final tally for the two anglers was 12 Thornback, 5 Cod, plenty of Whiting and unfortunately a few Doggies! Super day, well done chaps! :-)

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    First trip on High Flyer, really enjoyable, great skipper and first time had bacon rolls cooked for lunch and chocolate biscuits for desert not to mention tea and biscuits throughout the day. Just a shame about the weather but can’t blame him for that. Looking forward to next trip better weather, more fish and for cos another bacon roll. Cheers Jon tight lines.

  • 17/03/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    17 Mar 2012 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    After a slow start on the inshore marks on Saturday we decided to try a few wrecks out on the 20 mile stream. These also proved to be quite slow giving us around 15 fish or so. The "Wall" was shouting out to us so off we went! Fortunately the water there was like gin and the fishing was really good. Best lad at the end of the day was Graham Stansfield from Leeds with some 20 cod and 6 ling. All the lads were rewarded for their efforts. A great day with superb weather !! Pictured are Steve Smith and Graham Stansfield.

  • 18/03/2012 Fishing Report by jon old on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    18 Mar 2012 by jon old

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    After a previous day of torrential rain was glad of the forcast of light westerlys, so headed north today to see if any early bass are making a show from a little favourite mark of mine which generally produces in the early start of the expected run. Unfortunately the weather beat us totally unexpected ,the wind swung north, then north easterly forcing us to retreat inshore and hide in the shelter of the roads. Picked up whiting most of the day, quite a few keepers, only one dab, small codling, and a very large weever! Big thanks to Derek for arranging the trip, Dennis,Chris,Dave,Ian,Dave,Brian with Jay and Josh our two young anglers pictured with a few whiting. Good to see youngsters aboard well done lads. Hope to see you all again. Jon.
