Massive thanks to Mukta and the lads for driving through the night, to get to Royal Quays Marina for an early start, all the way from Manchester.

The instruction was to find the Mackerel, which wasn’t difficult today; we were pretty much overrun from the first drop.
After Sunday’s tough grind, it only seemed right to put the guys onto some wrecks and see if the Codling were back on the feed.
We only managed to get round three wrecks, as they were fishing hard and into some great Codling and Ling which was great to see!
We had plenty of time to sort their catch on the steam home.
Great craic today, and safe journey on their drive home; I’m off to sample a home made biriyani and rice gifted by one of the guys who has a restaurant in Oldham :-) -

Massive thanks to the lads for travelling from all over the country today. After yesterday’s extravaganza, on the one hand we we're expecting a great day out, but on the other, it had crossed our minds that there was no way it was going to be so easy two days in a row.

It was tops off when we departed Royal Quays Marina; this didn't last long…no sooner than we had made the first stop off a chilly wind picked up way beyond what was forecast, which in turn whipped up a nasty little North Easterly swell, the kind with short intervals which relentlessly bounced you from wall to wall.
Thankfully the lads were here today to find some Mackerel, which we did, pretty much non stop for the entire day.
It was also good to see some stocky Coalies coming up in good numbers, Pouting, Whiting, small Codling and a decent number of smaller Haddock.
Whilst we were predominantly targeting Mackerel, two or three of the lads were hunting some codling for pan, which they found, but there wasn’t really anything noteworthy other than a single fish coming in a just shy of 8 lb (for your first ever time sea fishing I’d count that as a win!)
The sea conditions made things uncomfortable, the wind was relentless, but notwithstanding, the fishing was pretty much non stop with another day full of good craic and mountains of fillets for the freezer :-) -

Massive thanks to the lads for travelling up from Bradford today; we headed out to almost no wind, sunshine and a substantial residual north easterly groundswell which steadily eased throughout the day. The vast majority of the guys had never been fishing before, and they dealt with the swell admirably.

The instruction for today was to find the mackerel, and the first stop off was the first day of the season where we found huge shoals and pretty much non stop full strings. They were mostly a cracking stamp, mixed in with some good sized coalies, pouting, haddock and smaller codling.
We stuck it out until the lads all had all a sufficient supply of mackerel for the freezer, and decided to try and find them some codling.
We never strayed much more than five or six miles from the Tyne piers, and decided to try heading south on the wrecks for pretty much the first time this year.
It was just one of those days; no matter where we went, which baits or tackle we tried, the Codling just kept coming up; you could have used a handline, safety pin and limpets! It definitely made a change from the past four months hard grind.
Once the guys were pretty much fished out on the wrecks, we opted for a leisurely drift on the inner grounds, which also produced plenty of smaller stamp codling, but not a mackerel in sight.
Cracking day out, almost perfect weather, great company and non stop fishing! -

There's been a ridge of high pressure off the west coast for the past two weeks, which has resulted in light northerly and north easterly winds, making fishing tricky at times.
View Boats Page
Early morning, there was a bit of northerly swell, which kept the temperature down- very cool for June, as we set off a fished a few wrecks as the tide was ebbing. We had a couple of small cod and the odd mackerel.
The skipper headed North, working the inshore wrecks and ground, and we steadily picked away at the fish. There was a lot of pouting caught, some small whiting and coleys, with the odd better Cod and Ling making an appearance.
We hit a good patch of mackerel and got some for bait and the BBQ.
They say there's no substitute for experience, but young Zak blew that theory out of the water today. At just eight years old, he had a great day, netting the best fish (pictured) a Cod of around 6lb mark and landed the most keepers. Well done Zak, you showed the seasoned campaigners how it's done.
Daylites, with a variety of baits: prawn, squid, red dyed prawns and mackerel strip accounted for most of the fish, the shads didn't really pay dividends today.
Hopefully the prevailing northerly and easterly winds will disappear shortly and summer fishing will get going. It would be good to get the winter jacket off for the day. -
