    Report on-board Supanova II

    Hi All,

    a lifetime since the last report, things have been crazy busy with the wonderful weather we have been experiencing. 4 channel islands crosiing in May proved fairly fruitful, numbers of Flatfish were down a little on previous years but the quality was for sure much better with more double figure fish than i have ever seen which can only be a good thing. This goes to show that the strict 45cm size limit i operate can pay off if you give the smaller fish a chance.

    The wrecking the last couple of months has been fantatstic with great catches of Cod and Pollack which has been nice to see, althoigh things have tailed off slightly this week. We have seen 3 John Dory's in recent weeks which have been a pleasant suprise.

    Inshore fishing has been pretty yough to be honest certainly for the flatfish, Some cracking breaming in May boades well for the next month or so when they should reappear for the summer. Some nice rays, Tope, Huss and congers on the reefs for those of you that wish to anchor up. A nice early run of bass has kept things interesting on the various tidal marks with 3 doubles already boated this year with many anglers choosing to return the big fish which is wonderful to see.

    Long may this weather continue and tight lines one and all, keep coming to Weymouth the country's Premier sport angling port. Top Boats, Top Skippers and Top facilities.

    Report on-board Just Mary

    Hi All, another good weekend aboard the 'long distance' 'Just Mary' from Poole fishing with the 'Big Boys' on some nice western marks in glorious sunshine and calm seas, why isn't every weekend like this ! Saturday and Good Bream for Paul and Zak and, sadly for them, a rather depleted Charter crew (last minute letdowns by their mates) but bolstered by my neighbour Paul Green who is a proper Poole bloke having grown up in the town. Good bream to a good 3lb or more, double figure Undulate and a bonus Bass. Paul said. '' .....more than ten species in total.....good job Malc.....'.....We put in the time, the effort and get the rewards, distance no object to find good fish on good tides !
    Sunday and ten Singles, some regulars and some through CBUK.....thanks Sam !.....More of the same and more rewards, a double figure Thornback for Kev Gardner, a double figure Undulate for his mate, and a 'Just Mary' regular now, Tom the Brickie, plus more big Bream to 3lb plus and other species like Smoothound, Gurnard, and a Conger amongst others.

    Having returned to work now as a Full time Skipper I will be doing local BASS fishing TRIPS, with our own sandeels (when available), plus an assortment of Livebaits and Artificials. These trips will be more than our normal fee at £40 per person and strictly with your OWN tackle only. Those who have been bassing with me before have seen some decent fish and I hope that they see plenty more !

    As testament to what we have previously achieved I have included a photo of my old Southampton mate Phil Butt, I have an archive of over 100 photos, this fish was from one of my Inshore marks in Poole Bay.....enjoy.....I'm back .....!

    Report on-board Just Mary

    Hi All, just a quick report from last weekends two hire rod trips, Stag Party Saturday and a Family on a Day out on Sunday.
    Plenty of Bream on the 'Mecca' and best one measured for the lads at 45cm, that's 18 inches of prime, in condition, bright blue, male bream and one of the lads won the pot !
    We had well over 50 nice fish with all the females still full of roe and released.
    Sunday, three couples from Sri Lanka, lovely people and such colourful clothes, plus four little girls from 3 to 8 years old and catching fish. 'Mecca' again and a great day out with them loving their fish almost as much as the Cricket that they are well known for. An SFP trip and a thanks to Stevie.P, Sheila, Rik and Jilly for doing a splendid job in their new 'hut on the quay' !

    That's all, see you soon.....Sun's out and the solar powered phone just keeps ringing....
