just a quick report on todays fishing.after a slow start at the bottom of the tide the fishing just kept getting better.the first run of fish was a bit small but as the tide got up the fish got better.the average fish in the end was around 2.5lb-3lb and the biggest was 5lb 7oz.we totalled 80 codling between the 6 andlers aboard who enjoyed their first days uptiding.dad had a group of 6 anglers who come out regularly for the cod and totalled over 140 codling! -

Report on-board Razorbill 3
christmass 2008 got off to a great start.on the 22nd we pushed a little further offshore as the weather was fine and the tides were rite.we saw action from the start and there was a great stamp of fish coming aboard.we only saw 4 cod under 5lbs all day and the majority were in the 7-10lb range.we saw a couple of doubles and the biggest went 18lb 1oz to tom.there are still plenty of bigger fish about and will be for a while aswell as the odd roker we saw two today.there may be a few spurs about as the year gets underway,hopefully we will see some decent ones like last year when we were lucky enough to get one of 21lb.we still have a few spaces so get in touch to book a day up.
