    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well this weekend was first time we could get out for a while the wind been beyond a joke really lost last three weekends on a trot. Still windy both days but with a later start and tide change we managed a few hours both days. We fished same area both days well inshore to hide up in the Roads again, no where else to go in the strong SW so really got to make the most of it. Plenty of whitting quite pleased with one or two big ones most thrown back in as no one wants them only my cat! Fish baits taking the larger ones mackerel the favourite we found. Few small early codling to three and half pound still think the waters too warm personally would account for the spotty dogs we caught as well, no flatties at all this weekend not sure why? Temperature still high for this time of year ,no frosts either yet and still not wearing a jacket,i think we need a temperature drop soon to bring in the codling properly, looking forward to calmer seas to try offshore banks which we will do as weather allows. Thanks to all the lads this weekend got bit of a bashing first thing on both days least we got a few fish. picture of local angler Matty with some of the catch who also put his eel back being conservation minded. Well done Matt,top marks! Look forward to seeing you soon with better weather and some offshore action. All the best. Jon. (High Flyer)
