  • 07/2010 Fishing Report by Drew Brooke-Mellor on Yellowfin (Brighton, East Sussex)

    Jul 2010 by Drew Brooke-Mellor

    Report on-board Yellowfin

    First Class Boat. First Class Skipper. First Class Fishing. First Class Day Out!

    Last Friday (July 23rd) was our first outing with Kurt, his deck-hand Charlie and

    the Yellow Fin Boat. We were a party of five, including my Brother-in-Law from

    Canada, who is a lake fisherman, and Chris, our next-door neighbour who has never

    slung a hook in his life. If you book this boat (and you'd be a fool not to) take

    time to arrive for bacon butties (or more) at the cafe and a visit to the 'Newhaven

    Angler' for your bait and lures, where you get a great reception from both shops.

    Other supplies are availbale from the convenience store on the same parade. It

    really is a 'one-stop shop' for everything you need for a great day out.

    Leaving shortly before 8, we had caught our fresh mackerel bait by 9:30 and were on

    the way to our first mark. It wasn't long until, thanks to Kurt's expert knowledge

    of the area, before we were 'in the fish'. One of the other Lad's, Tim, caught an

    amazing 60lb, 7ft long Conger Eel which had us all leaping around the boat once it

    was landed and photographed before release to breed another day. It wasn't long

    before Rob, from our party, caught a very handsome 35lb Conger and Chris, our

    newbie, opened his own sea-fishing account with a respectable Pollack of around 7lb.

    I was thrilled to bits to hook my own personal Pollock of around 10lb.

    Including a handful of very meaty Bream, our total catch gave us over 50lb of

    table-ready fish after gutting and a very enjoyable BBQ was had by all and the WAGS

    of the Hunter Gatherers. The party went on long into the small hours and most of the

    talk was about booking the Yellow Fin for our next trip.

    Don't bother looking for another boat if you're fishing off Newhaven. Kurt Lander

    and the Yellow Fin is Numero Uno. It's the tops. End Of.

    Report on-board Bessie Vee

    26 miles from Mevagissey harbour today, to treat the boys to some deep water pollack. Caught a few ling and two conger on the slack water, with no success drifting, so we moved to another wreck where the pollack and cod were feeding.

    Andy Woodford, the best of the eight anglers fishing, managed to land twelve pollack and a cod, and also the best pollack of the day, an 18lb - er. Everyone caught pollack, between 6 and 14lb, and half a dozen small cod, the best of which was 11lb.

    All in all, a successful day, and well worth going a few extra miles!

    Report on-board Bessie Vee

    24th July, 2010
    Took nine anglers 20 miles out into the Channel for a day trip looking for pollock and cod today. Good numbers of pollock, though no great size - the best reaching 10 - 12lb. Better cod catches, and surprised by a blue shark which took the bait on the way down. After two laps of the boat, we managed to get it alongside just long enough to see it before it parted the angling trace!

    All the boats sharking today managed to catch, top boat being the Swallow from Looe, with four, two of which reached 100lb!

    We saw a blue yesterday on the surface, so it seems like they have arrived for summer.

  • 23/07/2010 Fishing Report by Aaron Smith on Bad Boyz VI (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)

    23 Jul 2010 by Aaron Smith

    Report on-board Bad Boyz VI

    Just a quick one to show how the fishing is doing, went 6 lads out yesterday and accompanied with nice weather and small tides allowed us to steam off to the famous Holyhead Deeps, with mixed thoughts from a month back al fingers were crossed.
    Arrived to anchor up for slack at 3 with the sun shineing bright, all rigs whent down including flowing traces for tope and huss aswell as feathers to try find some of the big whitting that lurk in deeper water too my home made spurdog rig and within 5 minutes of the baits hitting the bites started and with all the feathers destroyed by fish within seconds and everyone on the flowing traces and spurdog rigs hauling fish in it was obvious what rigs were needed.
    The action did not stop for one minute even finding the fish nearly a hundred feet up from the bottom but just over 2 hours later the tide was nearly unfishable and being time to be heading in we called lines up and had a quick talk to calculate the amount of fish we had, which were - nealry 80 spurdogs, 25 huss and 6 tope including some lovely whitting and amazing lee enough not a single dogfish the days we always with for haha !!!!
