  • 10/08/2012 Fishing Report by Bob Marshall on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)

    10 Aug 2012 by Bob Marshall

    Report on-board Duke IV

    The fishing here at Ramsgate just gets better with Hiendricks crew over from Belgium on a 5 day fishing stint aboard Duke IV. Jules a lively 78 year old started the fish feast with a couple of nice Bass on live whiting, Heindrick followed with a larger fish on a similar rig. After landing a few more and losing a few we moved out to have a go for the Skate using the fresh mackerel we had feathered earlier. We managed a couple of fish fairly quickly. The crew had opted for a 6 hr day and just before anchor up the guy fishing the stern hooked into a serious Bass that led him a merry dance that ended when the hook length parted just before we could get the net under the double figure fish!
    Still some weekend dates available in September so don't miss out on the fantastic fishing this autumn. For comfort, speed and a great fishing experience book Duke IV.

    Report on-board Supreme

    Fantastic weather this week with todays trip being a species hunt for the lads .
    From the start of the trip it was Gurnard City three types Tub , Grey and Red with over 120 landed during the day with some nice specimens caught .
    A first for a few years was a small Turbot 2 lb but a Turbot is a Turbot no matter what the size well done Alan .
    Best laugh of the day was for Paul who caught a Tompot blenny but while getting ready to have a photo with it he was bitten on the finger :)
    Cracking group of lads who are welcome anytime on Supreme.

  • 05/08/2012 Fishing Report by Ray Martin on PLAN B (Southend-On-Sea, Essex)

    Report on-board PLAN B

    Back home from my holidays now after 3 weeks away, was hoping the weather had improved.. it hasn't. Got both Saturday and Sunday in and had a mixed bag of results. The weed proved a problem in my usual marks so had to move around a lot to avoid it, but the fish came in reasonable numbers. Double figure fish came both days with some very nice skate and hounds.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Another cracking days fishing aboard the boat today with a mixed group of lads from as far afield as Chesterfield and Newcastle.

    The day started with some hectic mackerel fishing at the bell. Enough to supply the bait rigs all day long after just one drift!! Good to see the bait flying on board as quickly as that again. Long may it last.

    We started the bottom fishing on a patch of ground just 4 miles East of the piers with a good start. Five fish to 10lb on the first drift. Sadly each drift after that went downhill as the tide strengthened and the drift was up to 1.7 knots.

    After a little deliberation we decided to have a very steady steam to a group of wrecks some 14 miles off shore giving the tide time to slow a bit. Bingo!! With a good load of mackerel processed for the kill on the bait traces we started hammering the fish out. Granted, 80% were of the ling variety but what a cracking 3 hours sport with fish to just over 14lbs. Pete Tamms from Leeds did have what looked like a belting fish on but sadly lost it!! Ah well maybe to be captured by tomorrows team.

    Pictured is Dr Ash Bandela from Newcastle with the best fish today at just over 15lbs.

    Summers here lads!! Come and enjoy some fantastic sport at Whitby.

  • 09/08/2012 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Report on-board Mistress

    Today we had a mixed party of lads, some novices thrown into the group too.

    we started out ta the bell bouy jigging mackerel for bait, seeing as we're on neap tides again wrecking was the order of the day. Plenty of mackerel about so two drifts saw us with enough bait to get started.

    We were rifting quite quickly to start with so fishing was slow, as soon as the drift slowed a point or two of a knot the fish came on to feed!
    The fishing wasnt hectic today, but we saw some nice fish non the less.
    the biggest Ling was 15lb, Cod to 10lb. we had a number of Ling over 10lb again today.

    We had a young novice, Peter, with us today he caught a couple of really nice fish to take hoem the best being a Ling around 7lb in weight, dad was pleased as punch, its always good to see the youngsters getting amoungst the fish! well done mate.

    Peter with his Ling
