    SUN 24,07,11 WRECKING
    We left the marina at 6.30 to head offshore the wind was blowing a touch so we discussed with the lads that we would fish some marks inshore and see if the wind dropped as the forecast had predicted we arrived at the first mark just to catch mackerel,We tried 4 or 5 drifts but to no avail,We then edged a bit further out another 15 mile. i st drop we had fish but only to 6lb we fished this for a couple of hours and the headed out to another mark this produced pollack to 13lb 8 steve price was winning the pool, up until alan j hooked a 13lb 8 pollack and a 4lb pollack on the 2nd to last drift overall a really good day with loads of laughs and the odd grown over the back of the boat i should not of had that extra nite cap, was murmered from the back. Every body seemed happy with the day.

  • 21/07/2011 Fishing Report by Robert Maxted on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)

    21 Jul 2011 by Robert Maxted

    Report on-board Duke IV

    Dear Bob
    Thank you so much for all your hard work on the 21 July 2011. It was the best day's sea fishing I have had in many a long year. I don't think I have seen so many cod caught on a single drift since the late sixties and early seventies, and that continued for most of the day.
    The Duke IV is certainly an excellent comfortable boat and your skills at finding the fish were first class.
    I had a wonderful time and was totally exhausted at the end of the day, but it was a trip I will long remember.
    I shall certainly look forward to the next trip with you.
    Many thanks and best wishes
    Robert Maxted

    Report on-board Duke IV

    The weather Gods are smileing on us here at Ramsgate, the sun is shining and the waters calm at last!
    This has given us the opportunity to head offshore. On Wednesday Gary landed this 10lb 14oz Bass on a chunk of fresh mackerel intended for a Thornback Ray. He was'nt too disappointed!
    Today we headed offshore again to the wrecks this time with a group of individuals, Danny had a number of Cod & Pollack landing the best of both species! All the anglers landed plenty of quality Cod and Pollack along with a couple of Gurnards and Bass so a good day had by all on Duke IV.
