The summer fish are going out to the deeper water and the winter species have begun to arrive in numbers. In amongst the huge numbers of whiting and dogfish there will be cod.
The skate are still about plus lots of smallish bass in the 1-2.5 lb mark.
Now is the time to get out there and maybe get one of the big cod that should be here any time now :) View Boats Page

Wednesday I had 6 squadies onboard who chose to fish the 4 hours down to low water. There was lots of mockery and jest onboard but not many fish caught, infact 1 whiting and lots of crabs was all that was caught that day. The following day I headed out with just 1 man onboard for the 3 hours up to high water and he caught 3 whiting and 3 dogfish. I thimk he may have been paying more attention to his rod and we were fishing a better part of the tide for those particular tides.

Hi guys just to let you know about what is happening on the boat fishing scene. The codling and whiting are slowly making a show with amounts of fish being taken on the boats, so don’t leave it to late to book otherwise you might be disappointed.

Fished Friday / Sat and Sunday and what a contrast..
Friday was slow - very hot and muggy - the fishing only picked up when we managed a nice lot of hermits in the drop net. This got the smoothounds interested and resulted in numerous fish in the 7-9lb bracket. We tried for skate with fish baits during the slacker tide but did not get one. On the return to port, I spotted birds working a distant sand bank.. we feathered for about an hour and managed around 70 bass. Brilliant fun and made up for the slow day.
Saturday was a fresher day and the fishing was good from the off with loads of hounds and also skate, nearly every fish caught on hermit.. I tried with peeler and did not get a bite and changed to hermit and had a hound in 30 seconds. Looked for the bass again, but did not see one !!
Sunday was a total write off - strong SW winds kept us close to home but I thought we would still manage to catch the skate and bass on the banks.. how wrong can you be. We were top boat on the day with one eel and 4 school bass.. lets see what next weekend brings. View Boats Page

Good fishing around slower on small tide but good for tope. Plenty of bass around especially when we find the birds working lots of mackerel too. Hound fishing is great fun when targeted can hit over 80 at times few roakar still coming out but personally hound and bass fishing is the best at the moment
