Recent trips are showing lots of good sized hard fighting tope on grounds south of the nab, best catch so far is a pair of fish totalling 95lbs!!! On several trips anglers have simply been too-toped and we have moved away for a break!!

I went out today with Frank on the Carrick. I had to make a report because I have never before experienced such an all round complete package as good as this!!

We decided to start the day 'on the Cod' within an hour on the first mark we had boated a couple of dozen fish to around 12lb with a number of good sized double hook ups!
We then went off for a conger-once again and unbelievably Frank put us straight on the mark. We boated 4 conger to around 35lb within an hour and a half.
On the way back in, we stopped for a couple of hopeful bass drifts. We boated 5 bass on 3 drifts, right under the noses of another boat that had un successfully being drifting the mark all day!!!
The boat hand Guy, was fantastic, bacon butty waiting when we boarded and tea and coffee on demand!! He was like 'Johny on the spot' with the net, and was extremely knowledgeable on the tactics and tackle.
Ive spoken to a number of freinds and will be booking again as soon as possible.
Thanks Frank--Best day on a charter boat for me for many many years.

Report on-board Duke IV
Getting amongst the Thornbacks again with some quality fish. Mark Kingsmill's group from Kent having a fine day, landing some 15, along with Whiting, Bass and Dogfish. Wreck fishing still good although slowing slightly for the Cod with more Pollack turning up. Mackeral around although the northerly wind stirring up the water making them a bit hit or miss. Summer fishing should be at its best over the next month!

SPUR'S R'US - Malcolm Chalk and his crew from Essex came out on Flamer III for 5 days and enjoyed some good fishing catching cod,ling,brill,turbot,bull huss,conger,smooth hounds etc and a 7Ib 2oz tub gurnard.But on their fourth day something special and unusual happened.I decided to take them tope fishing but we did see a tope but caught over 120 spurdogs up to 15Ib in a frantic three hour session.I personaly have never seen spurdog fishing like it before and may never see it agian.In fact as they were bringing up the hooked ones several other spurs were following on behind,it was just an increadable sight.I am pleased to say every spur was released alive.Needless to say Malcolm and the lads enjoyed their expierience.

Fishing just never ceases to amaze me and I always say every day is different in the fishing world and events like this just want you and the customers to keep coming back for more.

On the first day the cod fishing on the two wrecks I choose to drift over was just fantastic,in fact it was so good that we stopped fishing at 12 noon and went dolphin watching and we saw plenty of them.The three middle days we fished a variety of inshore marks catching plaice,whiting,gurnards,etc and some big bull huss in the 12 to 13Ib range.The last day we fished some wrecks on the drift and had a good catch of bigger cod up to 16Ib.We then anchored a wreck and had a session catching congers,ling and some monster pouts.
The Results of the speceies competition done over the 5 days were - Winner - Pedro,
Runner Up - Ian,Most Species - Pedro,Best Flatfish - Dodgey Dave,Weakest Link - Geordie,Entertainer of the week - Dodgey Dave,Rotton Bottom Award - The Skipper.

13th, 14th June, what a briliant weekend for the weather, shame the small tides made the fish difficult to keep on the feed, we still managed a good number of bream and three undulate rays between 13lb and 14lb. With weather that good everyone enjoyed themselves, let there be many more.

we didnt venture too far due to the weather and as the lads were hire rods i didnt want to give them a rough trip.we had a good day after a very wet start and were rewarded in the afternoon with some bright sunshine and flat calm sea's.
we finished up with 23 thornbacks 1 small tope and a load of dogies.the lads and the boat both handled the sea really well and we didnt have one suffer with sea sickness!UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Galloper

Report on-board Wight Huntress III
Hi all
View Boats Page
For a long time I have been waiting for early June to arrive as I love BIG Tope and thats what this time of year is all about. A recent trip around the Isle of Wight produced a bumper session with BIG tope attacking all of the rods at the same time! Here's a pic of the first two fish of the session weighing 50lb and 45lb. Great fishing, it must be as close to big game fishing as we come as these fish take their searing runs tearing line from the reel! Great Stuff! If you fancy some of this action then look for a smallish tide and ring me for details.
On these trips we can also go for Pollack, Conger and Bass, does it get any better????
