Thanks to Lee for an excellent day on Saturday.
Excellent weather, flat calm (for most of the day), and some great sport with Smoothhounds to 11.5lb, Tope to 1lb !
As soon as the fishing died after slack tide Lee moved us on to the fish again, with 4 Bass including one for the barbecue.
Al the bike is pictured with one of his smoothies and wearing his best pants.

With the weekendweather set fine we have ben able to get to some of the better marks, we are still getting good bags of double figure THORNBACKS, The SMOOTHOUNDS are around in numbers but the TOPE seem to be a bit elusive with some good fish caught but they don't seem to stay in one area for very long.

Fishing has been good with catches of THORNBACKS and SMOOTHHONDS, MACKERELL are around in fair numbers and thats helped with the TOPE fishing, We are now seeing more good size TOPE, BASS fishing has been a bit slow at times but we have seen some good fish,
Fishing over the next few weeks should be good now we have the better weather,

SUNDAY 13TH JUNE
Today was a trip to the offshore banks to fish for the bass. Four individuals made up the trip. First up we had to catch some launce our chosen bait for the day. Using small Sabikis and shrimp rigs we soon had enough for the trip. Using the launce as livebait we set about catching some bass. Just on the one tide we fished they landed over 30 bass between them ranging between 2.5lbs up to 9.lbs couldn’t hit the magic double figure fish today but some good size bass were caught with the majority in the 4-7lb range. On the way in the lads wanted to try for some cod. I didn’t hold out much hope, as we have not been catching much off these inshore wrecks this year yet. But I hadn’t fished this one yet so we gave it a go. The little trawler came up trumps. After only 30 minutes they all had 5 cod each. all ranging between 3-8lb so a nice end to a good days fishing.

FRI 4TH/SAT 5TH JUNE
Friday saw an individuals trip out to the wrecks. Over 40 cod were landed with the biggest falling to Robin Turpin with a fish of 13lb 8oz. The fish are still of real good quality but unfortunately are not on all the wrecks out there. Again the uncharted wrecks produced all the fish but a nice surprise today was a bass of 7lb 6oz for Ian. Which is unusual, as we don’t see bass on the wrecks till a bit later in the month.
Saturday’s trip again was out to the distant wrecks. Much the same as Friday really for the party of five, best fish was a tad smaller than yesterday at 13lb landed by Tony Gossage but the quality was superb again with 10-15 low doubles again. A small Ling of 6lb was also caught today. Pollock seemed to have disappeared for a bit we only landed a couple over the weekend but normally put in an appearance again a bit later in the year.
