    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Keeping you all up to date having lost two weekends on the trot due to extremely high winds was glad to get out midweek nice light north west wind making conditions near perfect, only bug bear was reasonably strong tide but you cant have it all. We headed out north to a bank on the 5 mile mark on arriving was clear the tide was far too strong to fish in the depth we were in, couple of whiting and a flatty came in but decided to move anyway as tide wasnt going to slow down for a few more hours yet. Headed south virtually off lowestoft seafront didnt take long as tide was with us resulting in pesky whiting from the start of all sizes! Ended up when the tide turned with best fish of the day pictured here with Len Andrews a 6lb cod, also few others round the 3 to 4 lb mark and undersize returned. Had a visit from IFCA Fisheries Patrol Vessel nice to see the boys as they do a great job also explained our new bass quotas. In all was a great day sun shining few cod at last hoping this is the start of the spring codling run as we have had a hard time so far this winter! Thanks to all the lads especially those who traveled couple of hours its much appreciated just leaves us looking forward to next few weeks to see what happens, Few places left for this weekend at the moment. Until then tight lines everyone. Jon (High Flyer)
