    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Bringing us up to date to the weekend of December 12/13th 2015, have put up with really blowy conditions last couple of weeks enough to test patience of a saint. Have managed a few trips inbetween keeping us inshore hugging the beach just to get fishing. Even though we have been plagued with whiting few good keepers among them with anglers kept busy all day, it is the cod people want to catch and unfortunately apart from the whiting knicking the baits the odd few cod about are not getting a look in. The main factor in all this is the temperature is so high for our seasonal average being so warm with our sea temperature round about 11 degrees still i fear too warm for our cold loving cod to appear in numbers yet. Today Sunday 13th was first opportunity with little wind to head out to deeper water fished in around 70- 90 ft off one of our banks which tails off to 130ft good cod mark in the past for us, today was good flatty mark! Apart from the whiting nothing else but few decent flatties no cod for us didnt hear any other boats with cod either. Tried a few other marks during the day and ended up for last hour right inside for more of the same. Wasnt a fantastic day fish wise but most enjoyable glad we tried off a bit hoping for our weather to become winter a bit! Big thanks to everyone Barry and his crew, two newbies on the Flyer from London Alex and Siergy, regular Dave Jones pressganged for a photo for today! Good lot of banter as usual, appreciate my xmas present still wearing them! Looking forward to next trip pray for cold weather everyone. Cheers . Jon (High Flyer)
