Forgot to mention...... although we are not allowed to take them, we had the first of the seasons Bass the other day, so you can fish for them as a sport fish, but they must go back....!! until the first of July that is, then you can all have one each...!!

Report on-board Girl Mandy
Sorry for the delay just a few lines all i can say is wall to wall skate we had 3 trips last week our first venture we caught 83 up to 12.5 lbs with 6 anglers for 6 hrs fishing our second trip a small party of 4 as they like to have the boat to themselves but 62 skate up to 14 lbs our final midweek trip was another bumper lot over 60 for only 4 hrs as the lads had a family get together to go to so if you want skate then come out for a day and fill your bags also we had a few bass from 2 to 4 lb which were returned as per our current laws roll on july when we are legally allowed to take our own fish home another reason for quitting the EU just to be allowed to catch our fish in our waters instead of watching day after day foreign boats fishing unhindered right up to our beaches and inside our estuaries laughing all the way to the bank so until next time good fishing and happy days

Report on-board Vanishing Point-2
Saturday... what a start, wall to wall sunshine a boat buzzing with anglers high expectations, and boy were they rewarded, it was a party made up as usual of different guys from all over, but with one passion..... fishing..!!
Once we slipped the ropes, and jogged out of our berth, the engines were warming up nicely, by the time we got out to the baffle, the tide was flooding hard, but as we pushed the throttles forward to her cruising speed of 20 knots we didn't notice the tide as it has little influence on the Vanishing Point, being so fine at the bow, and in just 20 minutes we were at the fishing spot No1.
It didn't take long before the first fish came to the boat, then it was just a steady stream of fish until the tide started to slow up, so we lifted the anchor and went for deeper water to pick up a bit more tide, I must say, it was running pretty hard, harder than I anticipated..!! there was about an hour of flood tide left, so the tide did slow down fairly quickly and we had just a lovely trickle running passed the boat, just enough to tempt the fish to bite, and they didn't disappoint..!! we had yet another manic hour before the top of the tide.
With the size of the tide being a huge 5.7 metres, I decided to up anchor and move several miles NW, and dropped in shallower water, ready for the ebb tide to rush out of the Blackwater, and it did...lol but we were ready for it, and once again the boys were catching right up to the point the engines were fired up, and Reg had the last 8 lbs fish on.... he does anything to hold me up from going home....lol
It was interesting, as Nicola was gutting one of the Roker, she called me out and said her knife wouldn't cut through, and on inspection, the Roker had swallowed a huge Garfish and Nic's knife was running across it's snout... very hard...!! so that's my new bait if I get any.... Garfish..
Ok guys, that's it for now, we are out tomorrow, just sad we could not get a party for today, so I am sat here writing this report instead of being on the boat catching my anglers a shed-load of fish.....hey that's the way it is i guess ...tight lines ...!!! View Boats Page
