    Report on-board Flamer IV

    FLAMING FLATTIES - Dave Metcalf,Roger Buttle,Steve Wells and Kevin all from Sussex enjoyed a days plaice fishing on Flamer III that will rank as one of their best ever.The signs were not good with a realy small tide and an easterly breeze blowing which normaly does not help the fishing.But fishing being fishing the rule a reason book went out the window and they had a brilliant day,this is what makes my job interesting and keeps a challange up for the anglers. As I always say every day is different in the fishing world.Lots of plaice were caught up to 7Ib including two six pounders and 5Ib plusssers along with 4 to 5 pounders.Steve Wells caught 12 including several personal bests and he put back the six pounder he caught.Roger Buttle also had a six pounder along with 4 to 5Ib fish.But the biggest was caught by Dave Metcalf a thumping 7Ib plaice which is Daves personal best.Dave is pictured with his big spotty.Kevin chipped in with some 3 to 4Ib plaice.The successful bait on the day was ragworm and Ammo black lug cocktail tipped with a squid strip.
