    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    Poole Cod Comp
    as the weather decided to give the charter fleet a break the seas were calm on a cold and frosty morning, Mistress Linda anglers opted to go to the IOW in hope of a big Cod, the fishing was not furious but fish were coming aboard and as the tide eased the Cod appeared, we hooked into at least 6 but only landed 4. At least we were now in with a chance of a prize in the comp. The tide changed and so did our fortunes as the fishing dropped away to just the occasional dogfish and pout. At the weigh in the comp was won by R Lake with a cracking 24lb 10ozs Cod, Mistress Linda won the top Charter boat prize

The Ling were taking lures and on the slack tide squid and mackerel baits. The fishing with baits also produced some Congers.The best lure for the Pollack was the Pink Red Gill.Keith Williams caught a bonus 5Ib Bass. Pictured is Keith Williams with his 14Ib 15oz Pollack.

    The cod fishing was starting to come good then nature intervenes and thanks to Hurricane Barney we have had 2 weeks of severe winds where even the protection afforded by Poole Harbour has meant being tied up waiting for a weather window, in the meantime the tackle box is immaculate, new cod traces ready to go and a very tidy boat. When the winds drop I will be going to sea if you are free and would like to go Cod fishing then please call

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    As you can imagine I haven't really got a whole lot to report about the last months activities except about the weather. Not sure I can remember a sustained period of high winds like this for such a long time. Although it finally looking like backing off to the north this weekend and then dying down. Despite all this though we have managed half a dozen trips over to the Isle of White for cod and whiting. Cod have been coming up every trip into the mid teens which is nice to see. As November pushes on, provided we can get out to them, we should start to see those 20lb+ fish. The whiting have made a great start as well, using mackerel baits 2/0 hooks around slack water we are getting plenty of them at the 2lb plus mark. Hopefully next month we have done a few more trips and will have more to chat about.

    Report on-board Just Mary

    Hi All, with what looks like a run of mild November weather bringing strong South Westerly winds and rain from the Atlantic up the English Channel then at this present time this month of November looks like it could be a poor one for getting out afloat. Having cancelled today, Sat. 7th and tomorrow, Sun. 8th, then looking at the long range forecast on several different Internet sites it is difficult to see when the next settled spell of weather will come. One such site, www.windyty.com is giving this current weather for the next ten days. So if I cancel your trip then don't be surprised even though we don't normally 'pull the plug' until the day before any planned booking having seen the 24 hour forecast for your chosen day. I can do many things, find you decent fish, tie your rigs for you, and even make decent tea and coffee but I haven't yet managed to alter the weather that the Big Man gives us. So be patient and when the weather improves we will be out there 'on the fish' again, in the meantime I wish you all the best and hope to see you soon, regards, Malc, 'Just Mary', Poole.

    John Collings age 30 from Milton Keynes got a bigger fish than he bargained for while drifting for Plaice aboard Flamer IV when an Undulate Ray weighing 19Ib grabbed his ragworm and squid strip bait.The size 1/0 Sakuma Stinger hook stood up to the task and after a 10 minute struggle the big Undulate was brought to the boat. The ray was weighed,photographed and returned alive. John is pictured with his Superb 19Ib Undulate.

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    The drop in temperature has bought the whiting into the bay, on an Albion club match last Sunday they landed over 100 whiting to reasonable size plenty of dogfish in all 12 species were recorded. Ian Hansford caught the best fish of the weekend landing another fine Turbot of 8lb. The cod fishing is good with the larger fish now appearing, our best this season is only 15lb but reports of fish to 27lb have been caught.
    All the best
