    Great days fishing today after a windy week. Started off quite chilly but warmed nicely. Feathered for mackerel to start and got enough for bait together with sand eels and those pesky weavers. Then we headed to the Tope grounds and were successful about 20 minutes after dropping anchor. In all we boated 13 and lost 3. The biggest was around 45lbs. All seven anglers caught one Tope and Carl lead the field with 4 followed by Claire Tom and Dave with two each .Thanks Jon for putting us in the right place and the usual free flowing tea and Ibiscuits. Hope the Tope that bit your leg doesn’t die from food poisoning but seriously hope you don’t get infection.

    Skippers Reponse: Was a good day john despite my leg hanging off!!!!!!! Nice to see the small tope for once great day all round, thanks for review bud. Cheers

  • 5-star Derek Ball (25/06/2024)

    Another excellent day out with Jon, put us amongst the Bass and caught some lovely fish. Jon looked after us really well, with food and drinks throughout the day. thank you Jon, we all greatly appreciate your professional approach and excellent facilities.

    Skippers Reponse: Nice to see the bass even better when you returned great conservation well done always look forward to your crew coming. Tope next time hopefully! Cheers Derek

    Had a brilliant day out invited by my friend. I was sick as a dog as it was choppy but we all caught something with Jon the skipper finding the right spots. Jon was a legend and we all loved listening to his stories, a pleasure to be around, top bloke. Would love to come back for some Mackerel.

  • 5-star Derek Ball (06/12/2023)

    another lovely day out with High Flyer, weather was idea, although there was still a swell from the day before, skipper provided plenty of refreshments, soup and chocolate bars. we caught skate, & codling, plus the obligatory whiting, an excellent day out with the lads

    Skippers Reponse: Always enjoy your group Derek looking forward to next year very much appreciate all the trips throughout the year . Cheers Jon

    First opportunity to get out after several cancellations due to strong winds. We stayed inshore protected from the gusty westerly wind. Bit chilly but escaped any rain.Fishing was slow until the tide turned but then doggies and whiting were coming aboard regularly. One thornback about 4lbs returned to fight another day. Everyone on coffee today which was flowing freely as usual along with biscuits.

    Skippers Reponse: Not a bad day in all john hope we get a weather break soon mate!!! Cheers

    Another year done big thanks to all our customers for your continued support without you we wouldnt exist. Looking forward to next year lets hope the weathers a bit kinder in summer lost no end of trips especially for the tope. Lost some good friends this year on the boat due to cancer and old age there memories carried with us been a tough year for me personally but life goes on hopefully i wont get bitten in 2025 or if i do the other leg to have matching scars! Next few months the toughest in my opinion weather obviously come march were off again running will be putting tope dates down very shortly get your name down the days go fast as you know. So all the best for New years guys have a beer or two for me catch up soon. Jon. High Flyer 2

    Bringing us up to date reasonably pleased with our summer season nice run of tope towards end of summer, bit thin on the ground for bass for us this year to be honest. At moment were all hoping for a bit of cold weather to bring any cod in already started with the whiting coming in still getting doggies and odd thornback. Got few new methods to try this year and few new baits on calmer winter days want to experiment if we can in deeper water willing to try anything. Few new amendments to the boat have added front splash guard to minimize spray seems to be working. New comfortable back seats seem to be popular! Finally the scotty rod holder parts have arrived from USA so all tip top condition. Our new rods arrive shortly so be pleased to have them. All we need now is fish and yourselves! Please get your name down for those weekend dates dont leave it till last minute we will be full especially boat bookings. Operating the deposit system now due to constant letdowns do not be offended just unfortunate way people seem to be nowdays cant operate a business on peoples word like the old days such a pity. So looking forward to winter comes see us will do our best for you.

    Keeping us to date been holiday time round Gt Yarmouth so family time nice to see small people aboard High Flyer 2 getting young anglers interested in the sport. At first most apprehensive about touching fish cutting bait putting on worms but by end of day all thats forgotten and we have budding anglers on our hands the future of angling. We sometiimes operate a shorter day in the summer at less cost for the younger generation so please ask regarding availability. Cheers Jon

    Well getting a few nice tope now biggest 70lb boat record for us not this one shown below before keyboard warriors start! Had biggest mackerel for along time so pleased about that. Most tope trips full unfortunately but we do get a cancellation so do get your name down on the list just text me 07920043979. Sep will be a bass month as most tides are strong after that we wind down to winter please get your name down on boat bookings as we have a problem every year people leave it till the last minute and days are gone especially if you want a weekend day running only one vessel now so bear that in mind. Few new ideas for this winter keeping it hush hush so you will have to come to see what were up to. Big thank you for all those supporting us on High Flyer 2 despite hard economic times we truly appreciate it and will continue to strive to put those fish on the hook. Until next time

    Up to date at last the weather seems to be playing ball. got first tope late this year well done to bill. Big mackerel so far better than last year still getting plenty smoothounds and usual spotty dogs. Unfortunately we seem to catch whiting all year round now the wrecks have given us a few cod but the pouting are difficult to wade through. Nice to see a couple of wrasse we never used to get them along with a strap conger things must be warming up our end. Looking like were going to enforce deposits now getting ridiculous the amount of letdowns cant run a business on peoples reliability nowdays such a shame so dont be offended if your asked all fully refundable on bad weather. Few places left on the tope days if you fancy your arms being stretched the high flyer is out water sep 23 for a week or so shown on website. Look forward to seeing you guys at sum point.
    Cheers
    Jon
