Saturday 5th January 2013
Locked out of the marina not knowing what to expect fish wise, as the amount of rain that we had before xmas had a knock on affect to the fishing.
We headed up the river to a mark that usually produces some nice Cod. It didnt take long for the whiting to make an appearance, shortly followed by the first Cod of the day. We had a few more after that, and decided to move out of the river and head up the channel. Plenty of decent sized whiting and nice dabs where boated until everybody had caught enough we decided to go back on the cod, this time heading downriver.
We went to an area that we have had some success on recently, but today wasnt to be the day and we ended the day on 7 cod with the best being 3lb 8oz. It was nice to hear that the big ones are still about as the boat next to us had a 9lb and 9lb 10oz.

Sunday 23rd December 2012 -Geoff and the Lads
We locked out of the marina for 8:00am, and headed up the river, with the weather conditions not ideal for the regular marks, we decided to try a different spot. Once we had anchored and got the lads sorted. It didnt take long for the first cod of the day to be pulled aboard, shortly followed by another. Fishing was slow all day due to the amount of fresh water in the river at the moment. Over the course of the day the lads had a few whiting and boated 11 Cod. With the present amount of freshwater the lads done really well to catch a fair few Cod with the most of them between 3-4lb mark.
Well done lads and see you all soon.

Report on-board Girl Gray
There we were, 7 novices, dressed for about 10 degrees of frost in the Marina car park at 06:30 of a Saturday morning wondering what the hell we had let ourselves in for.
Very smooth transfer to Girl Gray, locked out about 07:00 and away to our first fishing spot. Skipper had rods all organised for us. After a bit of good patient advice and help from Steve - "The thin end goes towards the water" - and such like and we we all fishing.
Mike first in with a 3lb+ codling after about 10 mins. and suddenly it was a competition. Quite a few more were dragged on board over the next few hours along with Whiting, some quite decent ones, and several flatties, not quite so decent.
Biggest of the day to Dean with a Codling just under 4lb took the kitty.
Tea and coffee and a large helping of banter flowed all day and a great time was had by all. Now regard ourselves as seasoned fishermen and will definitely be back for more. View Boats Page

Daany`s Trip.
Todays trip was cancelled due to a strong wind warning.
I spoke to the lads last evening and gave them the choice of going or cancelling they chose to cancel due to them having lads with them that havn`t been on a boat before.
