    Report on-board PLAN B

    Had a party of fathers and children at weekend and the weather and fishing were spot on.
    Around 40 skate some dogfish and nice large whiting for a bit of variety came over the side.
    I will start hunting for hounds this weekend and have been stocking up with hermits the past few months so bait won't be an issue.

    Report on-board PLAN B

    The skate have arrived in biblical numbers, takes less than 30 mins to get to fishing grounds and pretty much non stop fish.
    If weather remains kind the bass and hounds will be around shortly.
    I have a pretty full diary but have a couple of walk on spaces and whole boat Easter weekend (Sunday) if you fancy a day at sea.

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well been a hard winters fishing with the lack of cod thank god the whiting have been here to fill in the gap pain at times but least we were catching. There still about but change in the weather with it warming up our friends the spotty dogs have shown up makes a nice change from one pest to another! getting the odd spring codling these last few days time will tell if we get a run or not. Caught first small smoothound today nice to see early for us by about a month but no skate as yet. Report of vessel just up from us having one today so hoping to see a showing soon. Weather allowing will be targeting the skate on the banks this week spaces this wed 5th April still if anyone fancies it please ring or text. Give thought to any future trips your planning as dates are starting to go and especially weekend slots. Specialised trips as bass or tope most popular dont forget our evening sessions as well. I will always make up a trip so if only a few of you want to go on a particular day no probs will advertise to cover costs by getting few more places sold. Thought i would remind you of our leaflet and other literature available free of charge just email text or ring with your details will send out to you. Website up to date daily so reliable any queries or questions please get in touch.
    Looking forward to my favourite time of year generally better weather and bigger fish come and join us on the High Flyer for a great day out. Until then tight lines everyone,
    Jon (High Flyer)
