  • 04/2012 Fishing Report by Lyle Stantiford on Supanova II (Weymouth, Dorset)

    Apr 2012 by Lyle Stantiford

    Report on-board Supanova II

    What a Mont March proved to be both with weather and fishing!


    The wrecking continued to be brilliant with good catches of Pollack with the odd Cod thrown in. The last few days even showed some Ling which was nice to see.

    The last moths inshore fishing has been mind blowing, with Turbot catches out of this world with fish to 30lb coming form the Shambles it has proved a great draw with anglers coming from all over Europe hoping to bump in to a biggy! Remember ladies and gents the Flatfish grounds are ONLY 40 MINS FROM WEYMOUTH, Where else in the world can you get such good flatty fishing so close to port?

    There has also been a couple of early Brill turning up, Pictured is Brian Croft with the biggest Brill I have ever seen and the biggest Brill from the Shambles for a number of years. This monster banged the scales round to a whopping 11lb 2oz!!! And easily wins fish of the month this month.

    April should see continued good flat fish fishing with Plaice a prominent feature along with hopefully some early Bream. The wrecks should see continued Sport with Cod and Ling numbers increasing.

    Once again thanks to all for Coming to Weymouth and Choosing Supanova!

    Report on-board Optimist

    It's been a good weekend - we've had bass, double-figure thornback ray, double figure conger, a few codling, a few dogfish and a Ling on board. A good few days, and lovely to see the summer species beginning to show. (We'll all be cursing the dogfish soon though...)

    The weather has be kind too - if this settled spell continues I'm hoping to see the first of the upper channel smoothounds before too long.

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Lumpy sea today with wind against tide, knowing it was going to flatten headed north in search of those early bass and skate which once again made fools of us. Still forgetting its March but the chance is always there. Small whiting and flatties on the menu not in numbers at all even on the sandbanks the fishing was hard. Last cast of the day proved unbelievable when David James caught on worm a mackerel ! wouldnt of believed it unless i saw it with my own eyes, 3 months early, what the hell is going on? Big thanks for Mike (pictured) and Brian from Essex, David, Paul , Andy,Chalky, Collin, and Bob who was first time fishing,welcome to the club Bob! Sorry the fish wernt playing ball today lads and the big swells were a bit uncomfortable but in all a enjoyable day to be out. Many thanks lads, hope to see you soon. Jon.

    Report on-board Hard Labour

    No Anglers on board today owing to any iffy forecast. First call of the day was to get some fresh herring. Over went the net and 3 drifts later we had plenty of herring to see us through till next year. Off we went to find some fish.

    With the forecast being a bit iffy with wind against tide all morning, we dropped the pick and set out the rods. Almost immmediately the roker were obliging. There were fish to be caught but it was a slower day than in recent weeks. End of the day 7 fish were boated largest weighed in at 15lb3oz. This fish being the second 15lb plus fish in 2 weeks and high 14lber, the roker are of a great stamp so far this season. The big maid was returned to lay her eggs and fight another day.
