Small break in the weather, the forcasters not sure due to the various lows hanging around, decided to go as we always best off trying our luck. Kept inshore due to the tide ebbing our best chances to join the others down in the Roads. Not my favourite place but it does produce when were still waiting for tthe cod to appear in numbers. Started straight away again with those whiting , few flatties, wind ever increasing unfortunately turning SE,our worst wind. Made the best of the day ,moved up further south for the last of the slack,reports of a few cod over the vhf,not for us,just loads of the usual stuff. Thanks to James for organizing everyone, along with Ben,Steph,Alex,Mike,Andy,Lee,David,Simon and Darren,first timers on the Flyer,was much appreciated men,think we made the best of a bad day,was last boat home before the weather turned, full marks to you all. Hope to see you all for a good cod bashing when there in properly! All the best. Jon.

Todays charter headed north due to a break in the weather thank god. Our first chosen mark resulted in a severe change in depth from last time unbelievable really, so headed to close by wreck that has proved good for me in the past. results were non stop whiting and flatties most of the day, tried another mark in Hemsby hole but no cod played ball. Plenty of fish just the wrong ones! Thanks to Shaun,Richard,Dave,Steve,James and Tasha,and Geoff, lovely day with superb weather ,appreciate you all coming out. Last stop of the day in the Roads proved difficult with too much weed, few whiting as usual, still need a cold snap to bring those cod in. Time will tell. Thanks again to you all. Jon

The lads from Greene King Brewery came out with us today, some been before, nice bunch of lads and all sober! Tide dictated where we went as usual, ended up North Roads on the ebb, First cod went to Dave as usual, next cod to birthday boy Russel and our last cod to Matt. The rest unfortunately had to put up with whiting, nice size ones for time of year. on slack water we up anchor and tried the Bank, bit lumpy , no flatties there couldnt understand it, just whiting again!. On the start of the flood headed inshore off a little mark inside ended up with few flatties, and more whiting ,no more cod on the flood. Big thanks to Tom for all his effort in organizing, much appreciated, Dan,Nick,Matt,Adam,Adi,Dan,Dean,and Russel and Dave for crewing. Thanks for the day men, hope you didnt get into trouble for being home late! Blame me. Hope to see you guys night fishing soon. All the best. Jon.

Weather reports all over the place for today, strng wind forcasts doubtfull on getting out. Cancelled some long distance anglers booked in as not fair to them, with our local anglers prepared to come have a go. Wasnt too bad at first with a strong SW wind but turned to a lovely even stronger NE our worst. wasnt long before we thought we were on the seafronts roller coaster, caught a couple of cod, about 30 odd whiting, had a quick move inside to hide again and run inside back home before the tide turned! My thanks to first timers on the High Flyer, Graham for organizing, Shaun , Peter and Rich, and regular Steve, sorry about the wind, heavy downpours and roller coaster ride, least we got out had a go and got a few fish! All the best men, hope to see you again soon. Jon.

Todays party was a good bunch of lads first time on the High Flyer, plenty of good banter etc. options given by me and they chose South so we headed into the Roads to be met with a very annoying wind that wasnt forcast but still luckily in our favour. Unfortunately the tide wasnt which slowed the immediate fishing up but we cant help that. No cod showed up for us today, plenty of whiting but not in the usual numbers we have been catching still need a cold spell. Pictured here our group in the dark! Thanks to Andy for organizing the trip,son eddy, with collegues Mark,Peter,Paul,Chris,Craig,Tim,Mel and Jim and also Paul for crewing. Thanks for an enjoyable day, hope to see you soon.

A big thanks to John on the High Flyer for a great days fishing. Caught plenty of Whiting but the damn Cod were evasive as ever. John is a great skipper taking us to all the spots to make sure fish were caught. Tea and Coffee constantly flowing (needed in the bitter weather). Would definatley recommend a day out fishing on the High Flyer. We will be back next Summer. this time though instead of the Waterproofs we'll be wearing our Speedos and Flipflops!!!! Thanks again John for a great day regards Lee, Wayne and birthday boy Barry..

Headed out today, lucky slot in the recent weather , tides perfect for us, SW on an ebb flattening the inshore Roads for a reasonably comfortable day even with a strong wind. Apart from the showers and the cold air, we caught plenty whiting, few keepers biggest at 43cm. Only one flattie today down to the full moon and strong tides i reckon, one small pouting to me which i never caught close inshore ever! Big thanks to Lee,Wayne, and birthday boy Barry,pictured middle, from Canvey Island, also lads from Bolton, George,Neil,Paul,Dave and Tony for organizing them. Sorry no cod today guys, still waiting patiently for them, however glad the whiting kept us busy. Thanks for coming out on the High Flyer, safe journey home lads. Jon.

Bit of a uncomfortable day to start, horrible easterly rockin and rollin,causing a few casuaulties! Fog still lingering so kept inshore in the Roads, whiting from the off! Stayed there still the slack , and decided to catch some flatties off the bank just off the Holme. Nice little result two at a time here and there still with whiting! Ended our day inside off the Swan to use up the worms, plenty of decent whiting again, no cod for us yet, just a lovely little thornback to end the day off for Andy , pictured here. Big thanks to Chris Lomax for treating the lads from his team, Dean,Steve,Owen,Collin,Wayne, also Andy,Derek and Rodger, always a pleasure and a good laugh with you guys! See you all soon, much appreciated. Jon

Foggy old day with little viz to start down to 20mtrs at times,thought best to fish inside the Roads for safety reasons. Weak tides today and gentle NE, started off with whiting , and more whiting and guess what more whiting! Moved position after slack start of the flood further back up to Corton Church, few flatties thrown in with same old whiting. Few keepers in amongst them, tried our hardest for early cod but still none. Moved out to inshore wreck beaten by prolific weed so finished up back inside by the White Swan. Whiting all day, plenty of sport. Big thanks to Lawrence for organizing the day,Charlie,Luke,Vicky and Jimmy,Lewis,Lee and Toby. Would like to add a personal well done to you all today, very nice to see conservation minded anglers taking couple of fish for the table and returning most,wish people would follow your example sometimes.Pleasure to have you aboard, hope to see you guys soon. All the best. Jon.
