If i'm honest i'm glad of a small break Septembers Weather Continued to elongate the summer which was great.
The fishing has been pretty good too which is always a bonus!!
Neap tides saw some nice Blonde Rays and fantastic Breaming and plaiceing. The quality of the bream this year has been superb with many fish over the 3lb Mark.
Plaice still feature strongly in our catches although perhaps not the monsters of the last couple of years but fish of 4lb+ are a daily occurance.
We had a visit to the wrecks the other day which produced Bream, Pollack, Ling and Bass. The pollack were in fantstic condition and numbers for this time of year so things are looking good for the winter.
As Ocotber pushes on our focus will move on from the plaice and bream and concentrate on the Bass and with the iminent arrival of the squid we are in for a fun month.
September also saw Wymouth proudly hold both the European and World Championships. It was an honour for me to be lead boat for both these events and the whole Weymouth fleet did the competitors proud.
The Europeans was one by 19 year old Anthony Giacomini from Italy, this lad can seriously fish and his attention to detail was unbelievable, subsequently Anthony went on to win World Championship Gold in the Youth section.
The worlds was also a great week but stressful at times with language barriers etc. This event boght together the worlds elite and it was truly an honour to be envolved. England were victorious in the team event which was a fantastic result with Colin Searle's also picking up individual Silver.
The youth team for England was made up of 3 lads from weymouth, one lad from poole and one lad from minehead put in a fantastic performance to claim the bronze behind Italy and France respectively. Weymouth lad Jordan Davies also took individual Bronze.
On recent trip we managed two cracking Turbot on a relatively unfished piece of ground so watch this space for more big turbot. The best, a fish of 16lb 12oz and PB fell to Jason Perry pictured.
