At last we have some good weather and fish, Saturday we wenr t to look for some THORNBACKS and had 5 then went off to get some COD and managed to land 7.The wind freshend up in the afternoon and i think that didn't help with the numbers of CODLING.
Sunday and the weather was fine, light winds,a bright and warm day ,That helped with the fishing as we landed 16 THORNBACKS to 11lb and 8 CODLING.Some of the other boats that went for the COD landed a good number of doubles so i think we can expect some good fishing.

hi, sorry its been a while scince the last reort on cbuk but the fishing has been patchy the past couple of months. however it seems to have perked up the past few weeks and a small run of cod have turned up. last trip we had 20 cod of varying sizes to just under 5lbs which was an improvment. yesterday was another step in the right direction when we managed 19 cod to 7lbs and a couple of roker too and today was great with perfect weather and some nice fish showing. dennis had the biggest cod at 13.8lbs and we had another 5 between 7and 10lbs! lets hope they hang around for a couple of weeks. for more information, a weekly fishing update and available dates visit www.essexseafishing.co.uk or phone 07956411528 View Boats Page

Fishing seems to be picking up with some good COD into double figures, THORNBACKS are starting to make an appearnce, although a bit patchy. As these tides start to drop off i think we will see more CODLING/COD and if the weather warms up more THORNBACKS,

We had bright sunshine and light winds, No, this was not a dream it was a day that we have only dreamed of for the last two or three months, This gent likes to book the boat on his own, then he can go out and come back when he wants, There was only three of them.
We pushed the tide to the mark i had in mind and dropped the anchor, 3/0 or 4/0 hooks sand smallish baits, If you go too big you will miss fish, we were fishing for about half an hour and we had the first fish, not large but it was a start, the fishing was steady up to high water, The ebb was slower but we did get some bigger fish, The total was 24 CODLING with 12 keepers up to 4lb View Boats Page

The forcast for today was for strong winds , as we left this morning the wind was South West 3/4 and bright, I went to a mark that has fished OK this spring and as soon as we started fishing we had a CODLING, by high water we had 7 CODLING and as the tide started to ebb we started to get some fish, we landed 17 CODLING to 4lb, not bad for 6 hire rods.

Fishing over the weekend was ok on Saturday, The weather was fine with no wind but Sunday the wind and rain returned so it was a short day. Saturday the fishing inshore was much as it has been with CODLING from 10" to 4lb, Offshore the the fish seem to be returning with some better CODLING around 4/6lb, Let,s hope that this is the return of some good sport.

Fishing has started to pick up a bit, Over the last week we have seen a few more fish with some bigger CODLING mixed in,Over the next set of tides we should see more CODLING arrive and if it warms up a bit the THORNBACKS should start to make a comback.

Report on-board Razorbill 3
Over the last week i have only been out on two trips and thats because i have told the anglers how the fishing has been, The first trip we only had 4 CODLING but the anglers said that they still enjoyed the day!from a skippers point of view that's good to hear,
The next trip was two day's later, at the first mark we only had 1 CODLING so a trip down memorey lane to fish a mark that we used to fish over twenty years ago when the fishing went slow, I had 5 hire rods but they did get 11 CODLING not big fish ( the biggest went about 18") but it was better than the last trip, lets hope it's not to long till we see more fish.
