    Report on-board Flamer IV

    OCTOBER 2011 - Ian Pratt and his Welsh compatriates joined Flamer IV for an autumn Flatty Trip.Unfortunatley a nagging Easterly breeze seemed to upset the plaice and Ian caught the only one although the pouts and dogfish did not mind the wind direction.The turbot and brill fishing however was fine and the flatty's fed right through the ebb tide depite the drift speed reaching three knots at times.Ellis Jones landed the best flatty of the day with his personal best Brill weighing in at 8Ib.Ellis was using 15Ib class tackle with a flowing trace with a 4/0 hook baited with a strip of Ammo mackerel.Ellis is pictured with his PB brill.The Welsh group have vowed to retrurn in the spring of 2012 in search of plaice and big turbot.
