Some cracking fish on today trip
Only the four customers on today and they had a absolute treat of a day
Two of the customers have never sea fished before and we soon got them used to using shads and they had a belter of a day with young ben catching the best fish of the day a 10lb cod.
The stamp of fish today was far better than we have seen so far this year and the water clarity has vastly improved
4 inch Shads seamed to be the preference today in a multitude of colours.

Another cracking day weather wise yesterday for the lads, however the fishing was a little slower for us.
We ran back to the same areas as the previous day but somehow something had changed. The fish were definitely still there but not feeding as avidly.
We persevered though and managed to drag a few aboard.
As the tides start easing for us now over the next week I am hoping that the more inshore marks will start producing again. Fingers crossed.
Cheers

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
It’s rare in fishing to have two days exactly the same…..and today was no different; it was almost a complete contrast from yesterday.
With a full boat booking for six anglers who I know well; it was always going to be a great day out for me. With experienced anglers on board, we headed out to try a few wrecks. First stop saw us with two hours fishing before slack water, which turned out to be pretty decent. The wind and tide combination gave us a funny East to West drift which meant we crossed the wreck instead of running along it, but we still picked up a good few fish.
The last few trips have started to see an increase in the number of Ling coming aboard and that continued today; Jeff Turner taking the biggest one, just into double figures.
Slack water was rubbish (as it has been for a few weeks now), so we headed off to another wreck, arriving just as the Ebb tide got away. For whatever reason, we didn’t find huge numbers of fish after dinner. There were a few Pollock and Coalie’s on the jelly worms and and a few Codling up to 4lb, but it certainly wasn’t prolific. The lads kept at it and top rod for the day, Stuart Mills snuck up a few more Codling.
Weather conditions were beautiful, the company was outstanding, I just wish the fish had been a bit more cooperative. Thanks for a great day today boys. See you again in a few weeks. View Boats Page

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
A perfect day for a cruise yesterday with the tides still on the large side.
We sailed a little earlier at 6.0am so as to arrive at our marks an hour before slack water.
From the off we were knocking the fish out and the lads picked steadily for 2-3 hours.
As the tide increased on the ebb the fishing slowed a lot and we were just picking the odd fish up.
Baited Hokkai rigs probably fished best on the day but I personally had 7 Cod fair and square on the Shad, indicating the water is nice and clear offshore.
All in all another cracking day on the water.
Bryan Stanton taking the best bag with 12 himself.
Fish to 7.5 lbs.
Cheers

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
After another few days off with poor weather, we were back out again today on a Spring tide with a great group of lads.
Due to the size of the tide, we fished the majority of the day on rough ground and dropped on a couple of wrecks when the tide eased at slack water. We caught the last hour or so of the flood tide in the morning, and picked up a few Codling and Whiting. On the run into slack water we moved to a wreck and had some better sized fish to 4lb, but that only lasted until we lost the tide.
Slack water was very unproductive, but at the first signs of the flood getting away, the bites started again. The Ling came on the feed and we picked away nicely with Codling and Ling. Nigel Hughes managed the biggest Ling of the day at 9lb 8oz and Richard Hurst had the biggest Codling at 5lb 4oz.
The sun really broke through in the afternoon and conditions were glorious. We kept on picking a few up here and there for the remainder of the day. Most fish came to Hokkai’s baited with squid on the ground. But Shads and muppets on squid bait traces featured well on the wrecks.
Not exceptional fishing, but definitely steady away. Well done lads on some good angling. View Boats Page

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
After missing all of last week with poor weather conditions, it was great to have a day out yesterday. A group of mixed abilities on board from novice to very experienced. With it being a larger tide, the majority of the day was to be spent drifting the rough ground and then have a drop on a wreck around slack water.
First stop was on the 7 mile ground, but for whatever reason, there wasn’t much coming up. A move out to the 9 mile ground heralded much better results. There were plenty of bites to be had from all sorts of fish. We took Ling Codling, Haddock, Pollock, Whiting, Pouting, and even a Scorpion Fish.
When the Ebb Tide slackened we took the opportunity to drift a wreck and in amongst the stacks of Pouting we found a few better fish with a couple of 5lb Codling and a 6lb Ling being the biggest of the day.
The majority of the fish fell to Hokkai’s baited with small bits of Squid, although some of the better fish came to baited muppets.
Everyone took a few home but also put back loads of fish which were “size”. The wind fell away late morning and the remainder of the day was beautiful sunshine.
All in all a lovely day at sea, with a great bunch of lads. View Boats Page

Nice to get back to sea yesterday after a short break away.
Our mixed group travelled from all corners to fish with us, with lads from as far afield as Birmingham.
The day started slow on a couple of offshore wrecks with just 5 fish being caught so we ran back to the ground on the 9 mile where a mate of mine was finding a few.
We managed to pick away until slack water which saved the day. Mostly Codling around the 3 lb mark with an “odd” slightly better one here and there.
Fabulous flat calm weather for the lads making the day a pleasure. Best Codling of the day 7lb 5oz. Didn’t get the lads name.
Cheers and tight lines,
