    Report on-board Duke IV

    Duke IV report April 15th -18th
    The Skate fishing has turned on with good catches all over the area. Derek Edmonds group had a good catch in the Thames estuary with 14 up to double figures, along with quality Whiting . Thursday saw us visit the wrecks where Terry Gages group caught 25 Cod to around 12lb.On the way back we feathered up some Mackeral on the Falls bank. The fresh mackerel forced us to stop and try for Skate landing 5, the best weighing 13lb 8oz, again quality Whiting made up the numbers. Len Hoopers group were hoping to get on the wrecks today but the NE wind stopped us so we tried for Skate, landing 7 before the wind forced us inshore.
    Dates available if you want in on the action!

    Report on-board JFK TWO

    out monday bank holiday.a thick carpet of fog awaited us, however it wasnt long before the sun broke out giving us a lovely day with a flat calm sea.first wreck we visted first drift 3 rods immediaterly bent over producing 2 cod and a ling all in the 4-5 lbs bracket. this set the tone for most of the day with all wrecks producing fish.steadily working or way offshore. the fishing just got better. with one wreck resulting in eight rods all bending into fish together.the stamp of fish slowly increased as well. with some nice ling and cod just into double figures.
    an unusual addition was about 10 -12 herrig being caught. these we used for bait producing several decent ling. as it is still 3-4 weeks before we expect the arrival of the mackrel. then the wreck fishing will really kick in.
    all in all a cracking day afloat with about 50-60 nice fish being caught

    Report on-board Crimson Tide

    Well we fished the legs earlier this week so we decided to go even further in the fine weather. To say the weather was good was an under statement it was flat calm and wall to wall sunshine lets hope the fishing would match up . We had already decided on our destination but we just had to try one small wreck on the way that we had never fished before, the first two drifts produced 8 fish to live sand eels then nothing for next three drifts so we pushed on. The next wreck paid dividends with fish straight away and all through the tide until slack water when it died. We put on hopper rigs to try for for an unlucky cod , but all the hopper rigs produced were large pout up to 4lb 1oz not bad for a smelly.
    We decided to head for home and try the small wreck we had tried on the way, but it was just as we had left it blanco strange seems it had started so promising. The tally for the day 50-60 Pollock up to 16lb and of course the smelly which rolly is holding .

    Report on-board Wight Huntress III

    Hi All, as a new skipper I am just coming to terms with the various websites available for anglers and skippers use. So here's my first report on the cbuk.
    Thank Goodness for April arriving with some good trips so far and the arrival of Smoothounds in numbers and the first Bream just showing now.
    Over the school holidays I had a few trips with special prices for youngsters, as normal the girls caught the most!
    Last week most trips were about introducing new anglers to the delights of the hard fighting smoothounds, these early fish are averaging 6lbs and they really do go! BUT the bigger females will be in soon too, with fish up to 30lb it is superb sport, OFTEN on FREE BAIT!
    The BIG BREAM are here now too so all we need is for the weather to hold.
    As a new skipper I still have many days available and have updated my schedule, so please ring for info or just a chat.
    I can also pick anglers up in Portsmouth camber.
    Glen

    Pollack fishing mid channel 10/04/2009

    Fished an area called the Rip's today and to say the tide was ripping would be an under statement it was like trying to fish a washing machine , so we soon put a stop to that idea and steamed south for another 18 miles to find one of Adolph's rusting battleships. With 8 anglers on board we had just over 80 pollack in 3 hours and no "COD" with most of the fish 30-50 turns up in the water which were all were caught on live eels. The weather conditions were fair if you don't include the rain and the ground swell which was making the ships bury their bows in the morning , but by mid afternoon the conditions were great for the steam home.
