Report on-board Flamer IV
The first wrecking trip of the year on Flamer IV was a success with the majority of the fish in double figures.Pink Red Gills and Rhubarb and Custard Sidewinders proved to be the most successful catching lures.Plenty of Pollack were caught along with two Ling.Kevin Clark had several double figure Pollack and the best Pollack of the day weighing14Ib 1oz..Russell Salmon also had a very good day with plenty of Pollack from 10Ib 14oz to 14Ib,Russell is pictures with his 14 pounder. Nice to see two Ling caught as well ,so the signs are looking good. My next Wrecking with places available is on March 13th and Ling and Pollack will be the target species.Don't Miss out.

Fishing Report by Sam Cumming
on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)
17 Feb 2015 by Sam Cumming
Report on-board Silver Spray II
Much the same as last year, and most years, we haven’t been up to much since Januarys report due to the poor weather, only fishing the neap tides to target spur dogs and blonde rays. It’s been a brilliant season for both species already, we have managed to land more spur dogs in the last few trips than we did all of last year. The biggest tipping the scales at 23lb 4oz and the average being around 17lb. It really good to see the stock of spurs getting healthier every year although there aren’t anywhere near as many as there were thirty years ago from what people tell me. As usual along with the 2 main target species we have been getting plenty of bull huss, congers and other types of rays, on a couple of occasions we have even had so much by catch we end up running out of bait. Looking forward to the end of February when we have our first trips out to the wrecks for the spring pollock.

Fishing Report by Andrew McFarlane
on Katie Ann (Weymouth, Dorset)
17 Feb 2015 by Andrew McFarlane
Report on-board Katie Ann
This was the Blandford SAC's first of many trips aboard Katie Ann this year and what a great trip it was. The weather was surprisingly good considering the forecast, and Paul turned up trumps with his first chosen wreck. We were happy to stay on the same wreck all day with everyone catching fish. When we did eventually move it was to an inshore wreck where Paul gutted and filleted the fish.
Once again, thank you Paul for another excellent and enjoyable days fishing.
