Report on-board Silver Spray II
Other than a couple of late trips to chase the flatfish around we have started to concentrate our efforts on the inshore cod fishing around the Needles, Isle of White. The flattie trips were much later than I've ever bothered with before but both produced high numbers of fish up into the 20's. Not all monsters, as you may expect for so late in the year, but good fun on the light gear with the best turbot going 8lb and the best brill 6lb 4oz. Over to the east of Poole the cod have started to arrive in numbers with the best day producing 6 fish to 18lb 8oz. Apart from a few spotted rays and tiny strap congers the mixed fish have been fairly thin on the ground compared to past years, until today that is when we returned over 30 eels between 10 and 40lb. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come, although they aren't everyone's favourite thing to catch it does ensure that people change their baits regularly when they are getting mauled every 10 minutes. A new addition to our winter cod trips has been the squid fishing in Poole Bay which has produced some massive squid up to 6lb. You tend to need the right conditions for them to feed but, depending on your preference, they either make great bait or a tasty bit of dinner. This next neap tide should hopefully see some bigger cod arrive, you never know when that monster might show up. Remember we are running our usual offer that the first person to catch a 30lb+ inshore cod this winter gets a free trip to Cherbourg in 2017.
