  • 05/2018 Fishing Report by Kevin McKie on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

    Report on-board Size Matters

    [This report was written when Size Matters was operating from Plymouth]

    Size Matters is now in Plymouth ready to kick the summer 2018 season off in style! 

    For the last four days Kevin and his three friends have been finding new marks to fish before his charters start on April 28th.

    Some marks have held Porgies to over 300lb, along with massive shoals of Pollack to 13lb and Ling to 18lb.

    One of the marks held a shoal of Pollack over 1500ft long and 40ft high!
    It’s so good to still see big shoals of fish like this in UK waters.

    2018 will be Size Matters biggest year ever as we will be fishing from three ports Plymouth, Liverpool and Scotland (Croabh Haven).

    This is to give anglers the opportunity to experience top class UK fishing all year around onboard Size Matters!!

    Here is a full list of available dates, all Prices include all tackle and hot drinks!

    (Any tackle lost or damaged on our charters will be expected to be paid for)
