Report on-board Flamer IV
The weather was not kind during October but on the trips that were done saw plenty of species and good fish caught. Lots of Black Bream, Bull Huss, Congers and some Cod from the reefs. Bass in the Portland race area and also some Cod. The Whiting have showed up on the Adamant Bank a sure sign winter is coming.
