Report on-board Silver Spray II
Brilliant time down at the Lowrance British Cod Championships again this year, many thanks to the West Wight Skippers Association for inviting me. Great bunch of guys on the boat for the 2 days, both of which were fished in the solent due to plenty of south/sou'easterly winds and rain. We were just practicing on day 1 bringing no cod to the boat but we more than made up for it on day 2 with 13 cod hitting the deck. The key seemed to be small lug and squid baits fished on 4/0 hooks on a 3 down rig. We missed out on top boat by one fish, we either came second or third i think, and well done to Clive Webbwho was top angler on Silver Spray II, caught 5 fish today and finished 2nd overall with a total weight of just under 21lb. Roll on next years comp!!

Report on-board Flamer IV
NOVEMBER 2014
Due to an indifferent weather forecast the planned wrecking trip was changed to a Reef/Bank trip and the anglers were not dissapointed as numerous Congers were caught along with Blonde and Undulate Rays,Tope,Whiting and the usual Pouts and Dogfish. Russell Salmon did particularly well catching lots of Congers and two Blonde Rays.Russell broke two Personal Bests with a 42Ib Conger and a 21Ib 8oz Blonde Ray.Russell was using a Sakuma 4/0 circle hook on a flowing trace with a white muppett and Squid and Mackerel cocktail bait. Paul Garrett from Swansea caught two new species and set Personal Bests with a 13Ib 8oz Undulate and a 20Ib Tope. Garry Braund from Bristol caught his Personal Best Blonde Ray which weighed in at 17Ib 8oz.All the fish were released alive. Russell Salmon is pictured with his PB 21Ib 8oz Blonde Ray.
The Reef/Bank fishing can be really good at this time of year,So Don't Miss Out.

October 2014 report
We have almost finished a large variety of our trips for the year and it will soon be time to settle into a couple months targeting the winter cod. Over the last few we weeks we have done the last of the bassing, wrecking and also our trips across the channel. The last trip over to Alderney surprised me with some of the calmest and warmest days of the year, not often you can get sun burnt in October. It was a brilliant 4 days with 19 species brought to the boat including the elusive couches sea bream. Not often these days we catch a species we haven’t had before and such a superb looking fish at that. Andrew Kennedy was the man of the hour catching 2 of them using an ounce bullet lead and a short flowing trace baited with squid head, the biggest weighing just over 2lb. The mid channel wrecks really produced a lot of big black bream this year with fish up to 5lb coming on most sessions. Along with these we have also had a few red bream which we haven’t seen for 5 years or so. Gerry Todd brought the first one ever onboard Silver Spray II which he thought was a scad. On the inshore side the shambles is fishing very well for turbot and plaice along with a wide variety of other species. One day recently we tried vertical jigging on inshore reef marks which was a first for us on Silver Spray and turned out to be brilliant sport. Using spinning rods and fixed spool reels the lads managed to catch 7 bass, a dozen or so monster wrasse and more pollock than you can shake a stick at. I’ve only spent a half day down off the Needles so far which produced plenty of congers rays and the first of the years whiting but I’m looking forward to heading down again soon and bagging our first winter cod.

Report on-board Flamer IV
The Reef and Bank fishing at anchor is producing some unexpected late Tope fishing with plenty of fish in the 10 to 30Ib bracket being caught and with some bigger fish being lost by biting through 100/150 Ib mono traces and some dodgey knot tying. Birthday boy Ray Seddon landed several Tope and is pictured with his biggest of the trip a 30 pounder. The successful baits being squid and mackerel either in cocktails or seperate.

Fishing Report by Malcolm Collins
on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)
11 Oct 2014 by Malcolm Collins
Report on-board Just Mary
Hi All ! Recent weekends trips have proved what a difference some Gales can do to the fishing ! A good day with Paul Cox and his mates from Bristol and Reading way produced catches of Conger Eels on Scad and Mackerel flappers caught on the way out to our mark. We also had some other typical Summer fish like Gurnards and Black Bream. Then a good blow.....Gales and heavy seas to keep the fleet at home and tied up. Then a weekend with a party celebrating their mate Bob Crow's birthday. We had four seasons in one day ! Left the Quay in bright Springlike Sunshine and flat seas, got to the open Sea and the rain belted down harder and harder as we crossed the Bay and passed Matt Rowe on 'Piscary' on Poole Rocks.....then visibility zero and intense Thunder and Lightning right above us followed by hailstones.....wow ! Tried for Mackerel on the Sadler, two drifts.....nothing.....so on to our first mark. Anchor in and Bingo ! Straight into Channel Whiting ! More of those at a steady pace during the day and a Conger and followed by a Bass ! Nice ! Fish coming in at a nice steady pace. Lads did well as they were all hire rods and my traces and my baiting up and showing them how it was done. Weather cleared, we could see 'Piscary' again about two miles inshore of us but no other Poole Charter boats, guess only a handful of us Skippers had ventured out. Sea was flat and Sun shone brightly, lovely ! Species then followed, Dogfish, small Smoothound, Pouting and more Channel Whiting coughing up Sprats ! Then wind got up again from the South West, tide turned so wind over tide and conditions less than ideal. Last hour bit slow but job done, never know after a blow just what the fishing will be like. Coloured water and fish feeding by scent alone so we use a little trick to help them find our baits and it worked ! A good day was had by all.....it says so on my Facebook page !.....'Onamission Charters'.....Cheers lads and Happy Birthday to Bob ! See you again sometime !
Thanks, Malc, Onamission Charters, 'Just Mary', Poole. View Boats Page
