    Report on-board Supanova II

    Well guys since the last report allot has been going on in Weymouth! The plaice season has pretty much been and gone with mixed results. But some nice fish did turn up along the way. The wreck fishing has continued with some fantastic sport with the first few cod of the year and first bass of the year. The pollack action has continued steadily along with the occasional ling. The inshore fishing has seen the arrival of the mackerell which has meant some nice fresh bait for the hunting of the prized turbot which have prooved more than obliging over the last few days. Fingers crossed that the action will continue over the coming months and thank you to all who continue to support me and Supanova in her first season in operation, and also to supporting Weymouth. We skippers to understand that times are a little hard but apreciate everybody that comes to the town.

    Hope you get the biggun!!

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    The banks fishing off Poole has continued to be excellent with good catches of blonde rays and spurdogs. There have also been some nice cod and congers in the mix as well. Over the last weekend James Howarth from Christchurch decided to have a trip afloat instead of his usual carp fishing. He managed 2 spurs the best of which was weighed at 20lb before being returned alive. This fish was very close to the Wessex record fish of 20lb 7oz which we caught on the same mark last year. James mate Tristan added a 12lb cod so that there was something for supper! Our best blonde ray this month was a 24lb caught by Greg David from Wantage.

    When the weather has permitted we have ventured up to 40 miles offshore to fish on the wrecks. There have been good numbers of Pollack caught on artificial lures. Dave Faulker had a cracking fish of 17lb 8oz on a blue sidewinder. He followed it up with a 13lber on the next drift! Kelvin Hindmarch from Overton had a great ling of 29lb on a wreck 20 miles to the SW of Poole. We have only just found this one and it has tremendous potential for congers which seem to be everywhere on the ground around the wreckage. The best congers this month have reached the 50lb mark but there are bigger ones to come.

    The first bream have been reported and numbers are expected to increase with the warmer weather. We are also expecting the turbot fishing to take off soon.

  • 15/03/2010 Fishing Report by Sam Cumming on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    March Report

    On the banks the fishing has continued to be excellent on the neap tides with plenty of blonde rays, congers and big spurdogs. We have also had some bonus pollack, cod and bass to go with the main catch. Sky sports have made a film of our banks fishing and you can see this soon on Tight Lines which is broadcast on Friday evenings. While presenter Andy Ford and the film crew were aboard we had cod to 15lb, congers to 35lb and 10 spurdogs all in double figures. It will be shown on Tight lines Friday 9th April at 18.30 on Sky Sports 2

    The plaice have started to appear on the Shambles and the best was a lovely fish of 4lb 8oz which fell to Bournemouth angler Dave Jensen. Turbot have been slow which is perhaps linked to the shortage of sandeels. We managed 1 eel in 2 20 minute tows. The water seems to be too cold and the eels are still buried in the sand. On the offshore wrecks we have found a few Pollack to 14lb and congers to 50lb.

    We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the bream in April together with the turbot on the banks and increasing numbers of Pollack and cod on the offshore wrecks.

    Report on-board Supanova II

    The 13th March saw beautiful early spring weather, with a motly crew spreading from as far as Derbyshire on board we headed out again to target the Mid Channel Pollack. The day was fairly steady with a few quiet spells we managed a good day. All anglers landing at least five fish each. It was a truly enjoyable day and can't wait to get back out there. Thanks to Steve Parker for the pics.

    Picture is James Smith from Deeryshire with a a Pollack of around 12lb's

    Report on-board Supanova II

    Saturday 6th March saw Supanova undertake her first trip of the month. With a fresh breeze from the northeast conditions were not ideal with wind against tide and very coloured water making fishing challenging indeed. The guys on board worked extremely hard for the fish they caught and a big pat on the back must got to them for not giving up. A Big well done must go to Trevor Cozens who succesfully landed his first ever Pollack and promptly followed it up with a couple more. Well done Trevor. I have some spaces this coming friday, saturday and sunday. The long range weather forecast is looking good. Give me a ring 07976876667 or email lyle@deepsea.co.uk if you fancy getting amongst the Pollack.

    Report on-board Supanova II

    Well the 14th Feb saw Supanova take her maiden voyage! The target being Pollack on the mid channel wrecks. We wern't disapointed with a steady run of fish keeping me busy throughout the day. No monsters but all good qulity fish. It was a pleasure to be amongst such good company and a fantatstic spot of weather. Keep your eyes pealed on Supanova's pages in future weeks as we get amongst the biggys!

    Tight lines where ever you are fishing.
