Fishing Report by Malcolm Collins
on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)

Report on-board Just Mary
Hi All, just a quick report which you will find in more detail on our Facebook page of 'Onamission Charters' in more detail. Autumn is here now and the kids are back to School and whilst it means new challenges for them it opens up new opportunities for Anglers aboard 'Just Mary' from Poole. This time of year when the weather allows we push off to the 'Autumn Grounds' in search of Big Black Bream, Blonde Rays, Bass, Big Conger Eels and Tope. Yesterday, Sunday, we found all of them on one mark. Glorious Day with Good Company and some Cracking Fish were landed and probably just as many lost. Deep Sea fishing tests Anglers and their gear to the limit, this is Big Boys Fishing ! Pics are from the day when 'Plan A' came together and the weather behaved itself, we can only hope and pray to the Big Man to give us more days like yesterday.....and more Fish ! Thanks, Malc.....and may your God go with You.....!

Fishing Report by Stephen Wake

Report on-board Channel Warrior
August was a very windy month in Lyme Bay but the fishing was nothing short of fantastic, more cod than we have seen for years and the same for the plaice. September has started on the same note but the wind being much lighter so far, may it continue that way. The Pollock are starting to show a little more now, the bass are hit and miss although I have not targeted them much due to the amount of cod fishing, why spend time steaming all around the bay looking for bass when you have got such a good cod fishery on your doorstep. The bream are much bigger this year although they were much later getting here. Still plenty of fat plaice about we must of had about 10 or more yesterday in about half an hour on the way back from the cod grounds. All I can say now is fingers crossed for a good Autumn/winter season
Tight lines to all SteveView Boats Page

06/sept/2015 Some excellent fishing over the last few days on the Skerries Banks we have been Spot on with the rays as evidenced with the photos and also hitting the plaice with a smattering of Gurnards and Dogfish but it's been the rays that have provided the sport all returned to fight another day. Our local tackle shop owner Graham managed a decent Blonde earlier in the week and the Skipper although confessing to not really trying was Spot on with an 11lb Blonde ray followed by another and an Undulate Ray (sorry no photo) and yet another Blonde on the surface before the trace snapped. The Wrecks are still a bit quiet but with some spectacular fishing on the Banks we are certainly bringing the fish aboard and keeping the customers happy and thanks for the text's "Thank you for your boat trip today. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience on your friendly boat. Will definitely book again. Cheers" We have more trips planned, we would love to welcome you aboard to enjoy some 'spot on' fishing with a knowledgeable crew. Photo shows Dominic from Hereford with a 6lb 4oz Blonde.

Report on-board Silver Spray II
The first time since the new rules were set in place earlier this year we have finally hit the 3 bass per angler limit, I was pleased to see all the guys keen to return any extra that hit the deck. Due to the amount of small scad we have been getting for bait bass catches have finally risen to a sensible level after a tricky start to the season. Also in strong numbers this month have been the tope. 2 hours sessions have been more than enough with upwards of 40 fish not uncommon. On a recent trip to Alderney Silver Spray’s new top angler Finley Palmer tackled a tope of 25lb caught on a live mackerel, a brilliant method to get the best fight possible as the tope really nail the livebait and take off on a 20 yard run to kick things off. And last but not least the wrecks are still keeping us entertained with plenty of cod and pollock on the lures and ling on the dead baits. Last week saw the arrival of the autumn bream mid channel, bringing some good fun over slack for those who don’t want to fish for the big stuff. Harvey Collier did just this but unfortunately it backfired when a 24lb cod took a fancy to his tiny bream rig in 260 feet of water. A bit of a surprise but a welcome one!

Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3
Inshore Fishing
The fishing along the beaches this last few days has been extraordinary in the amount of quality fish being caught, Trigger fish are the target species and they have shown in good numbers along with these we have landed Cod and Bass to 6lb, Rays to 13lb and plenty of Plaice, Bream, Gurnards all to good size along with the usual mini species. Many drops have seen good quality doubles but the highlight of these was Sam Burrows with a Cod on the top hook and a Sole of 2lb on the bottom hook caught in bright sunshine. All have been caught on very light gear which has tested the angler and gear and proved great fun.View Boats Page

Report on-board Out The Blue
Truly amazing reef fishing this past month. Huge bags of Ling, Whiting and Pollock and the odd large clonker Cod. I thought we were doing well with 20 pounders but now we've upgraded to 30 pounders. As always struggling with wind over tides, but hey I guess that's just Cornwall. Looking forward to some crispy winter weekends.
