    Managed a day fishing inshore yesterday in pleasant conditions with a couple of Bream caught the first ones for 2023 which is a encouraging sign. Hopefully wont be long before they show up in numbers on our inshore reefs.
    The Plaice fishing has started with few boated whilst fishing on the drift and is starting to shape up nicely.

  • 20/03/2023 Fishing Report by Scott Belbin on Galloper (Brightlingsea, Essex)

    20 Mar 2023 by Scott Belbin

    Report on-board Galloper


    In between the codling and rays there have been one or two bass showing. Some schoolies and some lovely chunky fish. after Andy lost one on our first trip back in the water at the start of February some even better fish made it to the net. Barry has the biggest so far with a nice 6lber but not to be left out his good friend Charlie had a decent bass a couple of trips later. If you know these lads there is always a healthy rivalry between them as well as plenty of banter. I don’t think Charlie was too disappointed that his was a tad smaller as it was still a cracking early season fish.
    Our general trips have continued to produce numbers of codling and thorn-backs with lots of whiting and dogfish keeping us busy as well as a few other bonus species.

    Further afield we are chasing spurdogs, hounds, rays, bass and other species including the occasional codling off there too and with any luck a proper one at that.
    I have individual spaces and possibility of full boat bookings over the coming weeks and months if you want to get out.
    Please be advised that a steady trickle of dates are filling up for 2023 so please get in touch asap if you require a specific date.
    Remember it is often worth giving me a shout if you are cancelled else where and still wish to get out, as we have lots of sheltered fishing available and a big catamaran which makes it even more comfortable.

  • 20/03/2023 Fishing Report by Andy Savage on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    20 Mar 2023 by Andy Savage

    Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl

    Today we had an Ian Purdom “Uptiding Masterclass” aboard Sea Urchin.

    With a rising tide back over five meters and light winds, we had almost perfect conditions. Using the Ebb tide we headed a couple of miles north to start off. With the anchor down we spent an hour or so picking away some Codling. Nothing much of any size, but almost everyone got off the mark. Ian Purdom took the biggest Codling nudging 5lb.

    Once it quietened off we headed further north and tried up near Kettleness. We got a few fish, but then started to lose the tide. We took the opportunity to run up past Port Mulgrave to get the first of the flood as it came through. During slack water, it appeared we had gone to “Dogs Trust” as we had a raft of the kritters pestering us. As the Flood tide kicked in a few Codling made an appearance. For the rest of the day we worked our way, picking away, back down towards Whitby.

    We often say that bait is the key to get the very best from Uptiding. Today it certainly proved to be the case. We always recommend Squid & Black Lugworm to our anglers. There is currently a shortage of frozen Black Lugworm in Whitby, so six of the eight anglers didn’t have any to use.

    By contrast Ian Purdom brings his bait with him from Lowestoft. He’s an incredibly experienced angler so knows exactly what he’s doing, but his Fresh Worm and Squid baits saw him catch almost as much as the rest of the boat put together! He had twenty Codling in size plus another half a dozen to chuck back, plus Doggies and a couple of Pouting. He caught everywhere we stopped.

    On every trip this winter Ian’s been on, he’s been “Top Rod”. He spends the money on fresh bait, because he knows it’s worth it. Well done Ian….fantastic angling.

    Credit to the other lads, they stuck at it and everyone had fish to take home. I’d have liked to see a few better fish, but it was a day spent in great company and literally flew by. Thanks lads.

    18 Mar 2023 by Geoff Sharp

    Report on-board Sweet William

    Huge thanks to the lads for an impromptu run out today.

    We set off this morning with pretty much no wind and very calm seas, as compared to the last month of relentless northerly swells!

    Once the slack water had almost passed, we dropped the anchor on the inner rough ground and waited for the tide to start to flood.

    There were no bites whatsoever for the first 30 minutes, but once the tide began to properly push, codling, pouting and whiting began to come onboard in waves.

    As we approached the midday slack water, we hauled anchor and headed out to try a few wrecks; we tried every type of bait and rig but nothing noteworthy made an appearance other than a nice little haddock and numerous big fat pouting.

    Once the tide began to ebb, and the drift speeds increased, we stopped for some refreshments before the steam home.

    Fantastic run out for this time of year, with great craic and conditions!

    If you fancy a day on the water contact the skipper, Geoff, on 07740 706007 with all enquires.
