The fine settled weather we have been having lately saw Easter weekend being a busy time for us. Fishing was excellent with good numbers of Roker showing up landing well over 40 fish on two trips. Most fish are in the 4-7lb range the biggest this weekend went 11lb with another 2 or 3 just over the 10lb mark, With Fresh frozen Herring and Squid being the top bait for these.
We also saw our first proper Bass of the season with a lovely 8lb 4oz specimen caught by Roger Finbo from Sproughton.
Another sign summer is on its way is the first signs of the Smoothounds turning up. We had 8 over the weekend nothing big the biggest being 6lb once these turn up in nunbers these are great fighting sportfish on the right light tackle set up.

This Past week or two seems to of been a change over time in the fishing year with the last of the spring run of Codling moving off and Roker and some early bass showing.
Last weekend saw us mainly landing some Roker up to 8lb and a few large Whiting and some spring codling in the 3lb range.
Wednesday’s trip for Trevor’s group saw us fishing the first part of the day for the last of the spring codling. We managed 6 all around the 5- 7lb range, the afternoon was Roker time with 6 Roker landed all in the 5- 9lb Range.
This Weekend saw us land nearly 30 Roker over the two days with Aaron, from the boys at Bidwells property consultants, Landing the biggest of the weekend, nudging the scales to just under 13lb. A good number of the fish were in the 6- 9lb range with a couple of other double figure fish caught and returned. Well done to all you guys who put all the females back and only kept the Male fish.
A Small Bass of around 2 LB was also landed just to show us that the summer species are not that far away. View Boats Page

Three very different trips to end the month. With the tides dropping away this weekend we were looking for the bigger fish offshore. Saturdays trip was hindered by bad weather and limited us to inshore nether the less we managed 9 Roker to just over 9lb and a few spring codling well done Dave and your group for still fishing hard in bad conditions.
Sundays Individuals trip the weather was still not ideal but we pushed off in the hope of some bigger Cod, Fishing a mark which has normally produced better fish this time of year for us, saw us land codling up to 5lb but no Lunkers unfortunately, but everybody got amongst the fish and the afternoon turned out to be a cracker weather wise.
Monday was our first trip out to the offshore wrecks where we found the cod more than obliging to take our jelly worms and twin tails offered on the drift. Nothing huge but with well over 90 fish landed in just two hours fishing, everyone was happy and glad to get out on the distant wrecks again after the dull winter break.
The signs are there for a good wrecking season with the wrecks holding fish already and from now on the wrecking will improve steadily as the week’s progress.
If you fancy a go at the offshore wrecking off the Suffolk coast this season please get in touch. View Boats Page
