A windy weekend, but we braved the conditions and found plenty of life.
Skate, codling and our first hound of the year
Fishing will get better and better, all we need is the weather to behave.

Out on our monthly trip with Lester Friday 24th April, into Roker 5mins after anchoring on the mark, then steady all morning, Lester asked if we wanted to move to locate a few codling maybe, but we opted to stay put, and a blinding day was had by all, only five anglers on the boat which included our fast improving novice Chris, who is rapidly outfishing all of us, no stopping him now he has his own tackle box. In all we had approximately 45 Roker to 131/2 Lbs with about 20% just into double figures in the total, plus numerous dogfish, 50% of Roker returned to fight another day, thanks again Lester for another memorable trip and great company with yourself and the other lads, shame one of them had to pay for the priveledge of not turning out but thats the way it goes, your turn next trip Geoff, see you next month Lester, thanks again.

Hi guys, well we had a lovely day today, wind at last went SW 4 to 5 but didn't cause us any trouble..!
We had a slow start at first being plagued with the dreaded Doggies, so much so , that even though I would like to have stayed on the mark, it was impossible to keep the dogfish away from the bait.
So I up stumps and moved 3.5 miles East and got straight into the Codling, and as the tide eased away, the Thornbacks came on thick and fast, the out of the blue, a lovely 6 lbs Bass hit a whole squid and came fighting all the way to the net...
We are off again tomorrow, so we shall see if we can repeat today's superb action, no reason to suppose we cant, and once again the boys were absolutely blown away with our new boat... Cheers Guys...

Hi everyone, we are thinking of running a woman's angling day on Vanishing Point-2,.. and I will be there purely to get the boat to the fishing mark which My lovely Wife Nicola ( a qualified licensed skipper herself) will pick....!!
Over the years it has to be said when you have ladies on the boat, they are bloody hard to beat..!! we even had a group of women, all great anglers, calling themselves.... The Up-tide Hookers...... they were brilliant.
If we have enough interest, then we will run a ladies day maybe once a week.
Nicola my wife is often seen in various national sea fishing magazines, and Dave Barham who now owns, and runs Boat Fishing Monthly is a great champion of the female angler.
Well there is still a lot of Codling locally, and a lot of Thornback Rays within a short distance, so lots of fishing time.....
Ok guys if you fancy this new idea.... give us a call, Nicola will be waiting...!!! NO DRAG ARTIST PLEASE...lol

Looking good still on the Codling front, reckon we will get another week out of it.
Thornbacks are arriving in ever increasing numbers so this weeks good weather should see some good catches..

Well Saturday the wind blew just for a change..!! NE 25 to 30 mph, but with a flooding tide we sat nicely into the tide catching Codling, and Thornback Rays with regularity, and at high water, we moved a bit further West to the mouth of the River Blackwater, and after a little while when the tide got away we had more Codling in the afternoon, so the boys did well, and have vowed to make a return visit, as they said they have fished all around the country, but never, ever, had they been on a boat that had a cabin like a Lear jet, and a bridge deck like a 747...!! but what do you expect for nearly 3/4's of a million pounds..!!! only the best.
so if you want to try us??
just call us!!!
and go to sea on the finest charter vessel that the UK has to offer, at no more money than most other charter boats costing 1/10th of the Vanishing Point-2.

Fishing today was tough......!! NE 4 to 5 not bad when it was wind and tide together skate and Codling came to the boat, but when the tide turned we moved to a more sheltered position, and we caught more Codling but in the end the wind was the winner we just couldn't turn the boat against the wind, but a good day was had by all, and the party have made another 4 bookings..!!!! yay so all good.

We had lots of wind at the weekend, and lots of fish as well ...!!! so no problem there.
Friday's party did well, and was good to catch up with old pals once again and boat lots of fish, my old mate Andy never stop making me laugh..... cheers mate lovely to see you, and Allen Tarrent we haven't seen for a couple of years since we have been away, but great to see him once again..
Saturdays party was down on numbers as I cocked up with two guys I thought were brining another two guys with them .... but no I got it wrong, and then another of my party just plain forgot he was on the trip, but was most apologetic, and is sending the cash anyway...(Thanks Chris) and an old mate that was a party of two at the last minute got called by his company to go to Paris France..!! so we only had 4 anglers on board but we didn't hold back as was expected... we went the distance it wasn't the parties fault we were short, and I will never hold back if my boat is not full..!!.
Sundays party with Mark Smith and pals, turned out good, we caught at every mark we went to, and with the predicted species on various marks..!! in the end the wind was blowing at 35 mph and we still sat there steady catching fish...... I must admit, i did feel a little seasick!!! ........ I was watching a little mono hull vessel cork screwing alarmingly at times, and was glad we were on a mighty Cat..!!! View Boats Page
