Report on-board Size Matters
The winter season is now over for Size Matters on the mighty Mersey and what a good season it was. Cod to 15lb 8oz, Thornback Ray to 13lb 5oz, Conger to 13lb and Whiting to 2lb 6oz. The best day we had on the Cod was 64 keepers, most days we had 30+ between October and February.
The best day on the Rays was 56 (all returned alive) most days we had 25+ between October and early December.
This winter season was one of the warmest and most settled yet, we had one frost in November and only a few days of strong wind's.
Next winter season as well as fishing the Mersey on the neap tides, we are going to start fishing the spring tide's in places like the Queen's channel, Burbo bank and Liverpool bay. The tide is not as strong in these areas and spring tides fish much better, the only down side is the weather must be very good to do this. Our first charter back on the Mersey will be October 23rd to February 27th, already our weekend dates are filling fast.
Here is a full list of available weekend dates for the next winter season. Most charters are 9 to 10 hours, cost is £45 per person and this includes all tackle and hot drinks.
