    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well happy new year to you all from the High Flyer 2. As always we hope for a better year was quite testing at times 2018 with mackerel being scarce, easterly winds constantly in the summer, only a few tope boated this year as well, the lack of cod here on the east coast and the warm water we have had to deal with quite alot so big thank you to all the anglers who have persevered with it and supported us throughout the year. On the plus side 2018 had us in the Sea Angler twice with 17lb 9oz thornback our best to date and a 18lb smoothound also a boat record for us , millions of sandeels on the feathers plus some nice gurnards which seem to be making a comeback. The thornbacks this year were in abundance very few kept well done for the conservation guys and they lasted right through till december due to warm water i suppose. Looking ahead still struggling with the cod this end at the moment but that could all change the few we caught i havent bothered putting up all within the 2/3lb mark and returned to grow and the thousands of whitting just dont make a photograph! Keep in mind those small wrecking tides and get your date booked in early saves disappointment will drifting some distant banks soon as water clears keep eye out for specialist trips along with our tope specials that everyone loves lets hope we have a better season all round god knows we deserve it! Until then hope the hangover fades and the chocolates have all been eaten and get back to normality website up to date will be pleased to see you at some point. Happy New Year to you all.
