    Report on-board Spot On!

    Spot On was out wrecking again in search of Big winter Pollock on Sunday 15th February, the winds were due to ease as the day went on so we headed out to the mid channel wrecks looking for monsters of the deep.

    We were greeted straight away with many fish hitting the net and the size of the fish were a healthy 7/10lb mark and all were in great clean condition.

    After a few more drifts I asked the guys if they wanted to look for some bigger specimens, the lads said yes they had plenty for the table so we headed out for some larger specimens and we were not disappointed. The fish started coming in again fast and furious with some great hard runs from these sporting fish and many were dropped off due to the drags being set to high.

    We did however manage some good sized specimens with the biggest going 18lb 6oz for regular angler Barry.
    Barry was on fire all day and could not put a foot wrong but when his friend next to him pulled in a nice Ling on the lure of 23lb 8oz Barry was beaten for the biggest fish.

    Top lures consisted of AWOL blacks, AWOL rhubarb and custard and the sidewinder rattleback's.

    As forecast, the wind dropped and we had a nice steady 16 knots steam home filleting as we went with only a few fish left to do when we arrived back in Brixham.

    A big thank you for to the lads for making it a fun trip as always and thanks for continuing to support Myself on board Spot On and enjoying the great fishing that Brixham has to offer.

    Brixham's and the south wests premier charter boat with great all year round catches that are unrivalled by any other charter boat in Brixham.
