    Report on-board Size Matters

    During January the weather was very unsettled; in total we lost nine charters. This is unheard of in the Mersey because is it so sheltered, but the constant NW and NNW gales kept us in the marina.

    When we did get out there was plenty of cod being caught, most days seen 30 to 45 cod in the 3lb to 4lb bracket along with plenty of big whiting, dabs and odd thornback ray to 10lb.

    Some boats got in to a few bigger cod to 19lb, but fish of this size are few and far between in the Mersey.

    Most of the cod being caught are fresh run fish, this is a good sign and should see the cod staying in the Mersey till mid March.
