    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    The year is ending but the bad weather just keeps rolling in, on the odd fishable day and I mean the odd day we managed to get out the results were good with whiting being the main target as the Cod seem to be avoiding me at present. On the only trip over the festive period we landed Bass of 8lb 12ozs and a new PB for Keith Trim of 10lb 6ozs along with Ray's, Congers, Smoothhounds, Gurnards, some good size Whiting in all we caught 9 different species (which is not bad for this time of year). As the tide turned we had to seek shelter but still caught fish. Looking forward I wish you all tight lines and a Happy New Year.

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    Hi
    With the unseasonal warm weather and the prolonged gales we are suffering the fishing trips have been hit hard during the last 4 weeks 14 of the 16 trips have been cancelled but on the occasions we did get out the catches were good with quality and quantity of Whiting backed up by Ray's, Congers, Bass, Winter Pollack, big Pout and the bait robbing Swanage Bay Reefshark (dogfish) which hammered every bait the minute it hit the sea bed. We are still catching the summer species Gurnards, Smoothhounds pups and a few Mackeral. Although Cod are our main target they have illuded me since winning the top charter boat prize in the Poole Cod comp.
    Poole harbour is producing good numbers of Flounders on the right tides and this type of fishing is very relaxing and great fun on ultra light gear.
    During the Christmas week I am operating every day so if you would like a days fishing please give me a call.
    All the best and wishing you all
    A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
