Todays trip was a group of lads from WIRRAL PARTNERSHIP HOMES.
We met at the marina at 6 am the forecast was for it to blow a touch in the morning and then drop of in the afternoon.We loaded the lads with there gear and gave them there safety brief on how to put there lifejackets on etc and how to use the toilet.We then departed on the WPH adventure. We had planned to tope fish first but when we got to our mark the wind was blowing a touch too strong to fish how we wanted , So a plan B was needed we then headed some 18 miles out to sea into deeper water.The skipper did reasure them that not to panic they would all catch fish today.we drifted a few marks which gave us Cod, ling, pollack, pouting gurnard e.t.c.
Then we anchored another mark and added thornback rays to 10lb.bullhuss to 14lb.
Gurnard 4lb 13 oz doggies etc giving a total species count today of 14 different types of fish. one of the lads lost a big eel early on in the day but thats there for another day overall a great day had by all

Report on-board Flamer IV
JUNE 2011 - The wreck fishing has been consistant for cod and pollack with some good size fish being caught on lures with the best results on the rhubarb and custard sidewinders and the orange tazers on flying collar rigs. Double figure cod have featured and Paul Milkins is pictured with the 18Ib 8oz cod he landed.Pollack of 16Ib and 17Ib have been caught with Stephen Bishop form Bristol landing a 17 pounder.So far this year the ling have proved a bit elusive but 74 year old Alf Honour was successful and landed a ling weighing 21Ib on a squid bait.I am due to do some ling fishing on Sunday June 26th,so watch this space.

Report on-board Lady Helen
21.6.11. Short trip, after the Thornback rays on the Pluckie bank in the river. 8 individuals booked, only one arrived on time (Daniel) rest arrived to late to go, so sailed with him only. Conditions a bit choppy with a 25 knot S.W wind. Fishing was slow to say the least, as we fished with large baits for the rays and doggies. The thornies didnt want to play out today so had to make do with the ever present L.S.D. P.S. can any one tell me when summer starts?

Hi All,
View Boats Page
The fishing continues to be great from Weymouth with yesterdays trip proving it!
A total of 17 species were landed including plaice to 6lb 12oz and bass to 9lb's.
Away from the species fishing the banks seem to be throwing up good numbers of Turbot still with a group last week managing to boat 20 over their 3 day trip with just 7 being kept for the table, very responsible angling indeed.
The mussel beds still throw up the odd plaice of a better stamp than in previous months. The bream have arrived off of portland along with the bass in ever increasing numbers.
The mid channel wrecking for the Cod and Pollack is still proving frantic with the quality of fish mind blowing!
The next month will see the Weymouth fleet begin to concentrate their efforts on the Bream and Bass more.
Thanks again to all for their continued support to the port!!
Fish of this month must go to Pete Avery for his 25lb Thresher shark landed on Turbot gear last week! -

Fished over Liverpool Bay yesterday, with 10 novices and 1 guy who had fished before. Went to a mark and dropped the anchor, the lads began catching mackeral for bait and filling the buckets up. The guy who had fished before decided to stick a ground bait down and go for Tope.
It didnt take long for his rod to have a few bites then all of a sudden his line was stripped from his reel. Once he had hooked into the fish, and began reclaiming some of his line, we lowered the diver recovery lift so that it was above the water, but still easy to bring the fish in. When the fish eventually surfaced it was a decent Tope. Once on board we weighed it at 35lb. The guys had some photos taken and then it was released for another day.
After we decided to have a move further out and anchor another mark we have for conger. The lines were all out, when one of the group was shouting "fish on" so myself and Dave went to investigate, we found that he had hooked into a large fish. The fish didnt want to come up and it took 25mins just to get it to the surface. Once on the surface the diver lift was lowered again and the fish was brought aboard by Dave this time. The Tope was weighed in at 62lb, photographed and returned.
Also caught on the day were Grey gurnard, Red Gurnard, Tub Gurnard, Pollack, Pouting, Whiting, Mackeral. Doggies, Weevers.
Cracking day and remember these guys had never fished before and were using our equipment.
