Another misty start with choppy seas this morning, which thankfully settled nicely as the day progressed.
Massive thanks to the lads for getting stuck in all day, rewarded with a fantastic stamp of Codling and Ling for their efforts, and plenty of Wrasse, Pouting, Coalies and Whiting for sport.

It was a foggy and choppy start to the day, with some sunshine making an appearance after lunch, followed by a choppy run home.
The lads braved it well with great banter and maximum effort all day, resulting in some cracking fish for the pan! View Boats Page

We had a private charter today celebrating one of the lads birthdays, who had travelled all the way up from Northampton.
They had never fished before so we showed them the ropes, and stuck inside on the rough ground for the majority of the day; they soon got the hang of it.
Solid numbers of lovely clean pan-sized codling for them to take home for their efforts! View Boats Page

Bank Holiday Monday produced not only god tier weather but also some incredible fishing. Dustin and his party chartered the full boat for a short trip, the majority of which had never been to sea before let alone tried fishing.
We stuck tight inside on the shallow rough ground, and found them seemingly endless codling, with double shots and often five at a time being lifted around the boat each drift. Plenty of pouting, whiting, wrasse, and a small pollack thrown in the mix.
Thankfully it was just a short trip, as we called time and headed for home just as the fog descended in the afternoon. View Boats Page

t was a wet and murky start to the spring run this morning, but it settled nicely throughout the day, with plenty of codling for the pan, and non stop sport on coalies, whiting and pouting.

Massive thanks to Olivia for arranging a private charter for Oliver's birthday on Saturday, the lads travelled all the way up from Lancaster for a run out in lumpy but generally decent conditions. Plenty of codling, pouting and whiting came aboard steadily throughout the day. The First Mate powered himself up with hot beef casserole, and managed to find a few nice pan-sized codling for his efforts. Top baits were monster cart wings, squid, mussel and blacks, on custom made pulley pennel rigs courtesy of Billy's Fishing Tackle - North Shields.

It was a pleasure to welcome aboard our regulars over the last few trips, and most notably the American party who visited our region on Friday (their top rod was celebrating his 76th birthday)! They were great sports and fully understood that we were all guinea pigs testing the inner grounds, whilst fishing on anchor for the first time this year. Of course we nipped out to a wreck at slack water, and found a few late season Mackerel and a small Ling. Lots of fish came aboard steadily throughout the days, sometimes three at a time, predominantly Whiting, Coalies, Haddock and some decent Pollack and Codling, with a Dogfish thrown in for good measure.

With a slight break in the weather, the lads did incredibly well to brave a lumpy Saturday run out. It was tough going due to the challenging conditions, but they kept at it from the first minute to the last...the harder you work the luckier you get, and with some perseverance we managed to find some nice Ling, Pollack, Codling, Haddock, and any amount of good Whiting, Coalies, Pouting and Mackerel for the pan.
