    Report on-board Just Mary

    Morning All,
    we are still catching a wide variety of species locally with the Black Bream still prominent on the local reefs and more species now appearing consistently. The weather has turned for the better and the Customers are enjoying warm sunny and calm conditions afloat. The Sea is gin clear at present and we are fishing a few deeper marks for that reason. Anglers can expect Bream, Rays, Tope and increasing Mackerel catches soon. So get your bookings in now for when the Football World Cup ends and we can all get out afloat and enjoy the weather, ta Malc.

    Report on-board Blue Moon

    A trip down to The Shambles revealed there are not to much on the bank. Onlyba ssmall party and one small Brill. Not a good day at the office!!!! Sea conditions rough and the journey onto the mark was barely worth the early start and the exhausting joirney down to bank.
    One Brill and the hat was it!!! Lots of boats drifting but didn’t see any action.
    Thinking of Isle og Wight next for some Ray fishing.

Inside the harbour as evening sets in some good smoothhound fishing has been had not big fish but plenty of fun in shallow water.

  • 05/2018 Fishing Report by Lewis hodder on Pegasus (Lyme Regis, Dorset)

    May 2018 by Lewis hodder

    Report on-board Pegasus

    May Report- What a month, awesome weather especially the later half of the month we managed 24 days at sea in May and today is the first day ashore after a spell of 17 straight days at sea.
    Great to sea some early Bream being caught in one particular area, plenty of fish up to 3lb 9oz with 90% being returned due to the time of year. We’ve also seen plenty of pollack to low double figures, hounds to 7lb, huss to 10lb, Plaice to 2lb, small congers, 4 different types of wrasse, occasional tub gurnards and a few rays. There might of even been the odd dogfish and pout mixed in.... later in the month saw the arrival of a nice few mackerel, great to see them in good numbers at this time of year again.
    Wreck fishing has been patchy, plenty of congers up to 50-60lb on the anchor if that’s your thing. Some days have seen a nice few cod and Pollack with Cod to 8lb and Pollack up to 14lb where as other days the fish have been extremely hard to find. We did have a first ever Coalfish on a crossing to Alderney in a mid channel wreck in late may and I have heard of a few more being caught not too far away, let’s hope this is the start of a comeback for the coalfish on the south coast.
    Great to see so many anglers enjoying Lyme Bay and beyond though with plenty of old faces and a few new ones thrown in as well.

    June availability;

    Saturday 16th Inshore 8am-4pm £50

    Friday 29th Inshore 8am-4pm £50 Bream, Pollack, Plaice
    Evening species league 5-9pm £35 including bait and entry fee.

    I also have the following dates available for whole boat bookings or individuals. 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th building tides all that week. There could be the possibility of a first go at a shark trip for the year?

    Call or text 07519160020 or message to book or enquire spaces going fast.

    Weymouth Angling Breaks - *** NOW TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2018 and 2019 *** Don't Miss Out
    A few days away fishing out of Weymouth along with the social side is a nice trip to do.The variety of fishing and the amount of different species caught at Weymouth is probably second to none.There are plenty of places to stay which are angler friendly and some excellent places to wine and dine around the harbour and in Weymouth Town centre.
    If you want to try a Weymouth Angling Break then contact me, I cater for whole boat charters and individuals.
    Planning your trip well in advance is essential you need to arrange your boat booking and your accommodation as early as possible to avoid disappointment, some of my regular groups plan their trips at least 12 months in advance, this allows them to discuss with me the best tides for the type of fishing they are targeting.
