    Bringing us to date been extremley hot bank holiday with small tides lovely flat sea, been 35 miles out to few wreck pretty poor to be honest, some jumbo mackerel plenty of whitting etc. Lost few tope this last week these weaker tides they seem to pick at the bait rather than a secure hooking. plenty of smoothounds inshore for sport along with spotty dogs. Caught quite a few eels lately on crab or worm they must be migrating from broads at moment. Will be looking for few tope midweek unfortunately only got one space available this coming saturday rest of week full. Picture today of young Carmen with a bass on her birthday . Looking forward to few trips this month to end the summer off then before you know it nights will be drawing in again! Keep u posted. Cheers Jon High Flyer 2

    Quite a hard day today had a few hours slot before the weather would beat us so headed out to hopefully have a little feather odd bass maybe unfortunately not the case. Extremely dirty water compleat waste of time and fuel the previous big tides had done some damage out there mud everywhere. Headed back inside to a day of whiting few small smoothies only one thornback today pictured here with Bernard nice fish of about 8 lb. Bit of a early home today all other boats had left us and it just died! Thanks to everyone today was enjoyable but hard work. Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)

    Big tides today water barreling through to start 12 oz just holding in 40ft! Least the sun was out slight south east wind against tide but very fishable. The smoothounds had disappeared today from yesterday only a few small ones not sure why ? Usual whiting thank god giving us something to do. Got boarded by MMO fisheries again not a bad thing keep the wrong people on there toes i suppose. Decided to head out to a bank further north as tide eased paid off with this cracking bass fell to Charlie from Cambridge shade over 8lb. I got a small bass (returned) nothing else from the mark so headed inside for a small thornback and usual whiting until it died again. Slow day but result for Charlie be glad to see the water slow down next week!! Thanks to Mick for organising the lads hope charlie didnt rub it in too much!!!! Cheers Guys. Jon (High Flyer 2)

    Big tides this weekend of Sat 3rd August 2019 was slightly worried especially with light easterly, we done exceptionally well i thought with smoothounds from the start, whitting most of the day i know there a pain but it keeps us busy. Moved when tide turned no slack at all to go have a feather, had to move again due to huge strings of weed. Ended up on the mud banks to finish the day with 3 thornbacks all returned really good for the conditions. Big thanks to locals Kev and Jude and Jonathans crew from Boston much appreciated. Picture today of Maggy with her first thornback woman outfishing the boys as usual! Looking forward to our Sep trip. Cheers Guys.

Drift fished due to the conditions then just before lunch headed in side to try our luck for skate. Unfortunately no luck there apart from a eel , small smoothies and whiting a chuck! Enjoyable day though many thanks to DXB Water and Crayford Abbs always a pleasure to see you. Well done Tony todays winner! Cheers jon (High Flyer)

    Big tides this weekend every fish well deserved bit lumpy on Sat with northerly winds straight against tide, managed small bass rest was crappy whiting few sandeels odd mackerel ect, quite a hard day. Sunday better with odd small smoothound, thornback ray caught by Ayush from Leicester pictured here first time on the Flyer. He also lost another decent skate and landed a silver eel nice to see. I caught small codling dont ask i dont know where that came from, rest were just whiting most of the day, Big thanks to the Rugby lads and also Atul and crew from Leicester i appreciate the long journey you guys make pity fishing was hard. Hopefully next time easier tides. All the best. Jon (High flyer 2)

    Bringing us up to date of Sunday july 14th quite a lumpy day with 25mph northerly wind straight against tide ! Had to fish inshore but managed to nip out for couple hrs first thing. Pinched a bucket full of fresh mackerel thanks for the weavers as well lads , had half dozen bass thrown in as well which was nice. Biggest one here today pictured with Peter all returned for another day well done for conservation . forced inside we managed couple skate rest was small smoothounds and whiting. Not the greatest day but thought we done well due to conditions.

    Up to date weekend of 6/7th July 2019 weird weather again raining and miserable on the saturday and sunny with northerly winds on the sunday. Very strong tides every fish earned to be honest. The mackerel were few and far between managed few bass best was 4.5lb to holidaymaker Kevin from Northampton, best fish in my opinion is the turbot pictured here with Jess Little (returned) nice to see. Few smoothounds thrown in plus the usual whiting, no skate this weekend probably all pinned to the seabed! Looking forward to tides dropping hoping to get on the tope grounds this thursday and weekend so will keep you posted. Big thanks to everyone over the weekend was hard work all round but enjoyed it. Till nextime. Jon (High flyer 2)

Well done mate ,fish returned safe and well great bit of conservation. Cheers Jon. (High Flyer 2)
