Report on-board High Flyer 2
Headed out today steamed out to 12 mile bank, taking in 2 wreck drifts on the way. No fish at all on either wreck very dissapointing! Just lost leads! As the tide picked up it proved difficult to hold bottom, so beaten back to 8 mile sands, where we still struggled for fish. Only whitting and couple of flats today, lots of decent marks on the sounder, no cod biting today. Plenty of bait fish jumping around us, my thoughts turned to possible spawning weeks where fish go off the feed , no explanation for lack of fish as sounder was full at times?Radio traffic info was that all boats were struggling today.

What a day today turned out. Options were limited with forcast , decided to to attempt 5 mile mark, bit lumpy to say, knew we wouldnt have long there but we had to try. I did see the clouds of gulls behind the supply vessels churning sprats up i had this before which led to a bad day. On the 5 miler plenty of marks on the sounder but no fish came aboard at all. Had to move as the tide turned against wind becoming unfishable , headed with the other boats inshore grouped together as usual! Whiting all day few decent ones as pictured with Paaul here. No cod at all, believed all the boats were struggling. Was a non stop windy day, good banter as usual, thanks to lads for understanding the lack of cod, we moved 3 times in all,just too many bait fish,all whiting throwing up sprats. Thanks to Ian for organizing the lads, with, Alister,Paul,Dave,Scott,Chris,Vinny,Ross,Dave, and Shaun, appreciate you all coming out, hope we have better fish next time and weather!!!!!!! All the best men. Jon.

went out with JON on HIGH FLYER today 26/01/2013 weather was a bit skitey but out to corton roads and the sun shone down first couple of drops at anchor produced a decent cod of around 3lb and a couple of whiting, the whiting kept us busy for the rest of the day with the odd 3lb cod nodding a few rods 4 more in all had to have been around forty or so whiting caught on the day but only about 5 or 6 being sizeable " fish fingers "anybody lol. JON kept every one in high spirits with his local fishing knowledge and his cups of coffee tea and choccy bickies never went for any of his posh "soups" though all in all a good day had by all enjoyed my first trip out on a yarmouth charter and will be booking up again real soon CHEERS JON

Excellent day out again with Jon and the lads, expected some larger fish as the cold weather and rough seas had put pay to any fishing for a couple of weeks but not to be, even though most enjoyable there were a few Cod

and some decent Whiting maybe next time we can get out to the deeper water and bag a few bigger fish, good day with plenty of coffee and soup to keep you warm.

Headed out today meeting a very swelly sea, scuppering plans of our 5 mile bank,quite surprised at the height, would be impossible to anchor up and fish sensibly so yes back to old Corton Roads our saviour! Bit lumpy till slack water but one cod straight away with the whiting making a show as the water eased. The whiting stayed with us most of the day not as big as they have been ,few keepers among them, ended up the day with 5 cod , no flatties at all today and a surprised token pouting! Thanks to the lads for coming out today, weather was good, most enjoyable with our normal banter! Thanks to first timers on the High Flyer, John and Derek and Brian ,hope your trip was memorable, also Chalky,Steve and Len pictured, Paul,Dave, and Chris.

Bringing the reports up to date Jan 5th 2013, being the last trip, our plans of the 12 mile bank were scuppered by fog halfway out so with safety in mind decided to try the banks inbetween South Cross and South Corton Buoy. No good at all for cod, just flatties and small whiting. Peservered most of the day moving twice, still no cod even though decent size marks on the sounder! On seeing 2 porpoises this time of year this weather seems too mild for decent cod, on the way home picked on a mark of mine just off the shore to finish off with plenty of the usual flatties and whiting, dissapointed with no cod, we could always stay and pick up small stuff off Corton but with flat seas it seemed silly not to get offshore apart from the fog! Thanks to the lads ,Steve,Dave,Larry,Adam,James,Neil,Guy,Chalky and Paul, was good banter as usual, and dont forget who caught the first whiting!!!!!!! Jon.

Windy old day kept us inshore again! Could do with a break please god to get out to the banks. First whiting in ten minutes had me worried as generally a bad sign,but managed a cod for the lads not long after which caused some banter in my direction! After a while i moved closer inshore , previous experience had paid off, another cod just after slack along with the whiting, then as the tide picked up so the feeding began. Results for the day were 12 cod, plenty of whiting ,not a single flatty! Thanks to Neil from H2 Kyaks, with James,David,Scotty,Guy,Chris,James,Chalky and Pete, all pictured here, was a hard fish today, every cod was well deserved. Big thanks to all the first timers on the High Flyer,hope you enjoyed the day, was a pleasure to have your company, hope to see you all in 2013! Have a great xmas men,all the best. Jon.
