  • 02/2019 Fishing Report by Sam Cumming on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)

    Feb 2019 by Sam Cumming

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    Although it’s usually our quietest period of the year we still manage a few trips out in late January/ early February. The offshore banks are starting to hot up with plenty of spur dogs, nothing monstrous yet, fish up to about 20lb so far, but I’m sure we will get a few bigger ones on the neap tides in March. We have also had a very good start to the year with rays of all different varieties, always welcome to get a good bend in the rod. As February pushes on we will mostly see blonde rays and a few undulates until the water warms up. We have snuck in our first wreck trip early this year and were rewarded with some fat spring Pollack up to 13lb. As seems to be quite common at this time of year we had a nice visit from a large pod of dolphins half way through the day which really is an amazing sight. The video of this encounter is on our Facebook page. Over the next month we will be mostly wreck fishing with a few days on the banks for spurs here and there.

  • 17/02/2019 Fishing Report by Philip Higgins on Mistress Linda / San Gina3 (Poole, Dorset)

    17 Feb 2019 by Philip Higgins

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    The last 2 days have seen the weather go from bright blue skies and flat calm seas to cold overcast skies and increasing winds and the fishing followed the same pattern, on Friday we were rewarded with beautiful warm weather and the fishing was superb with plenty of quality Spurs, Tope and Rays coming aboard all day and armed with this I thought Saturday would prove just as good although the predicted forecast was not as favourable but seemed do able so we decided that we would venture as far as the conditions would allow us. Arriving at the boat on Saturday morning we found the boat covered in a hard frost and flat calm conditions, once the anglers were aboard we decided to go the distance even though we knew the weather would deteriorate at some point. On arrival the tide was a bit too strong but as soon as it cut the bites started with a few fish coming aboard no where near as many as the day before but the quality was good with Dan setting new PBs for Tope and Spurdog. As the tide turned the wind started so we headed inshore to find a few small whiting and dogs.
    Overall a couple of very good days fishing for February.
    If you fancy a day out please call

  • 13/02/2019 Fishing Report by Lewis hodder on Pegasus (Lyme Regis, Dorset)

    13 Feb 2019 by Lewis hodder

    Report on-board Pegasus

    Been a while since I last did a report here guys so apologies for that. Some of you may have heard about the poor Pollack fishing in general on the south coast wrecks so far this year, I put this down to many factors but last trip out it was just how it should be there was a huge improvement on the Offshore Wrecks for Pollack on Monday 11th February, heaps of Pollack for everyone, a cracking average size and a best fish of 15lb exactly. The inshore fishing this winter has been great, Whiting have been plentiful and of a good size, amongst the Whiting we have had Thornback Rays, Spotted Rays, Undulate Rays, Smoothounds, the occasional Spurdog, Huss and lots of Congers if the anglers want them. No less than 355 in 3 days of conger fishing at the end of Decmeber and there wasn't many straps. All in all pretty good when we can get out. Small tides this weekend so will be venturing offshore in search of Spurs for the first time in a while.
    Tight lines all,

  • 03/02/2019 Fishing Report by Philip Higgins on Mistress Linda / San Gina3 (Poole, Dorset)

    3 Feb 2019 by Philip Higgins

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    A small weather window allowed Poole Town Anglers to get afloat and head offshore in search of Spurdogs, the tide was perfect as we arrived and anchored the mark then within 5 minutes we had the 1st Blonde Ray followed immediately by a Thornback and other fish including small congers, hounds, dogs and Whiting. As the tide changed I re anchored and again we were into the rays with Pete Smith hooking into a decent fish which had other ideas than to be landed and after a 20 minute fight Pete's hook let go now the tide was getting too strong so we headed back inshore to find a few smaller fish and a nice Dab for Chris.

    21 Jan 2019 by Philip Higgins

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    After a few days of unsettled weather the chance to venture out came on Sunday with sunshine and calm seas, the fishing was steady all day with plenty of Whiting, Dogs, Pout and as a bonus a few Rays and Congers. Matte landed his PB fish a Conger weighing in at 25lb on his light gear which proved challenging but fun. Today the forecast was favourable to start with forecasted increasing winds and a storm front following so we went for it and were rewarded with flat calm seas. We decided to fish a bank 8 miles out knowing that the strength of the tide would only allow a couple of hours fishing but those 2 hours produced some fine fish Whiting to 4lb 4 ozs, Undulate Rays to 13lb and plenty of dogs and small Eels. As predicted the tide beat us and we headed inshore to another bank and were immediately rewarded with more Whiting and a couple more Rays. Overall we had more fish yesterday but today the quality was far superior.
