Fishing Report by Sam Cumming
on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)
Jun 2017 by Sam Cumming
Report on-board Silver Spray II
The wreck fishing has been sporadic with some days seeing heaps of fish hit the deck only for the same marks to produce next to nothing the following day. Pollock are still a good size with fish over 15lb taking the lures over various wrecks. The cod have been thin on the ground but have increased in size, 6 or 7 fish being our best trip but 18lbers not uncommon. Pretty much every angler I know has been out to enjoy some of the awesome bream fishing we are getting off Poole this season, I expect you are fed up of hearing about it. The black bream continue to provide quality sport fishing with fish to 4b coming on most trips. As the waters have heated up the rays have started to move, undulates, small eyed and blondes are in abundance. I had a great time at the Poole species hunt this year, organised by Sarah and Louis Medley. The 2 teams on my boat managed 17 species between them, evenly spread between the larger species and a few of the mini goby and wrasse variety. Brilliant day out, bear it in mind for next year if you have got a few mates who want to give it a try. Looking forward to being able to land a few bass in two weeks time.

Note: the average age of the anglers on this trip was 65, so there was plenty of experience on board Flamer IV. JIm Stone age 68 landed the biggest weighing 3Ib 8oz (pictured) and David Gibson age 67 landed the most with six Plaice.

Report on-board Just Mary
The past few weeks if not months have produced some challenging conditions for Skippers and Anglers alike. However we have managed to keep our bookings going by careful planning of tides, wind direction and choosing the right locations. As Roy Castle used to say on 'Record Breakers'.....'dedication's what you need'.....and a good deal of planning avoids pee poor performance ! So the Anderson clan from Swindon, who only visit me once a year and use my hire rods and bait enjoyed a good morning on the Bream before an afternoon of strong winds and a change of tide direction. My regulars enjoyed a trip to Dancing Ledge in 'challenging conditions' but we found plenty of Bream and other species including a big Conger that made the 'Great Escape' through the scupper. The rest of the fleet staying the other side of Peveril Ledge, I guess you just have to trust what you drive ? Two half days last weekend and again more planning, a Stag party on hire rods enjoyed Spotted Ray, Dogfish and Undulate Ray plus a big female lobster full of berries (eggs) that was photographed and returned after being tail cut. The afternoon party again had Spotted Ray and Dogfish on hire gear. Sunday and a Charter of only four landed half a dozen spotted rays and Dogs before we moved to avoid the wind over tide scenario. The move produced a nice Undulate Ray on anchor then gurnard and plaice on the drift. This coming weekend looks better.....about time too !

Fishing Report by Philip Higgins
on Mistress Linda / San Gina3 (Poole, Dorset)
7 Jun 2017 by Philip Higgins
Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3
The Bream fishing continues to excel with good catches, the weather has restricted our options but the fishing has been excellent in Poole Bay, during May fishing close to the shores we caught plenty of 1lb to 3 lb Plaice, Gurnards, and small Hounds. The Lymington boys did their species comp in very challenging conditions and landed a respectable 21 different species including a new club record Cornish Sucker (still waiting for it to be verified). On the outer banks there are plenty of Bull Huss and Tope along with some big Blondes. As summer approaches come and join us and enjoy the spectacular scenery the Dorset coast has to offer and its fine fishing.
all the best View Boats Page
