13th, 14th June, what a briliant weekend for the weather, shame the small tides made the fish difficult to keep on the feed, we still managed a good number of bream and three undulate rays between 13lb and 14lb. With weather that good everyone enjoyed themselves, let there be many more.

Report on-board Galloper
2009 has been very good to us so far and thankfully the fishing is still great.we were out on sunday despite the strong easterly as the lads were still keen to go.
we didnt venture too far due to the weather and as the lads were hire rods i didnt want to give them a rough trip.we had a good day after a very wet start and were rewarded in the afternoon with some bright sunshine and flat calm sea's.
we finished up with 23 thornbacks 1 small tope and a load of dogies.the lads and the boat both handled the sea really well and we didnt have one suffer with sea sickness! View Boats Page

Report on-board Wight Huntress III
Hi all
For a long time I have been waiting for early June to arrive as I love BIG Tope and thats what this time of year is all about. A recent trip around the Isle of Wight produced a bumper session with BIG tope attacking all of the rods at the same time! Here's a pic of the first two fish of the session weighing 50lb and 45lb. Great fishing, it must be as close to big game fishing as we come as these fish take their searing runs tearing line from the reel! Great Stuff! If you fancy some of this action then look for a smallish tide and ring me for details.
On these trips we can also go for Pollack, Conger and Bass, does it get any better???? View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Frank Shaw
on Falmouth Sea Fishing (Falmouth, Cornwall)

Report on-board Falmouth Sea Fishing
I have to admit, I couldn’t have hoped for a better start to the season aboard Carrick Lee. The kind weather and healthy work schedule have allowed us to take full advantage of the ongoing restrictions of commercial cod fishing.
The lack of nets in mid channel, have allowed the cod and Pollack shoals to regenerate and this has had a massive impact on our own catches.
From the early days of February this year, we have regularly caught more than 30 cod and Pollack in a days fishing.
Our biggest cod to date was a massive 32lb caught by Tony Ellis 18 April. We have also managed 3 other cod of over 28lb and a 16lb Pollack.
Most of the cod have been taken on artificial baits, such as white or blue 5” shads, jelly worms or side winders and the good old pirks and feathers. Our sponsors Tronix (UK) Ltd supply strung muppets in five different colours and they are great.
Slowly the season is changing and the summer weather will bring the bass, bream and conger on to feed.
Both Guy and my self look forward to the summer aboard Carrick Lee, and we now offer a varied range of trips for our customers. As well as our usual day trips, we do 4.30pm-10.30pm evening bass trips and special trips for stag parties.
Hope to see you this year. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Gethyn Owen
on My Way 2 (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)
Jun 2009 by Gethyn Owen
Report on-board My Way 2
As May drew to a close our attentions turned to the influx of quality sized smoothhounds on offer.
For what we lack in numbers aboard My Way (a normal day averaging 15) they certainly make up in size, with the catches to date averaging the 12lb mark, with the best fish landed topping the scales at 19lb. that said, 2 definite 20lb+ smoothies were dropped on the surface – too light hook lengths or simply me too slow with the net.
I argue the first case!
The smoothie fishing however has slowed down the last week with the change in the weather. Hopefully the NE east blow we are currently experiencing will help bring them back on the feed, that said, armed with hundreds of quality welsh fresh peeler, a smoothie assault is on the cards fairly soon.
Fishing has continued to be brisk, with additional to the smoothies, ballans plus plenty of cuckoo wrasse, huss, dabs, whiting, pollack etc and the wonderful north Wales Tiger Shark, aka the dogfish all in abundance to add to a trip.
Ray numbers are on the up however seeing boxes being landed at the marina yesterday may soon put paid to that, some people have no shame; never the less we’ll strive to put our guys on to the fish.
Fingers crossed for coming weeks and settled weather and great fishing for you all. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)
30 May 2009 by Bob Marshall
Report on-board Duke IV
Plenty of species available inshore now with Smoothounds, Bass & Thornbacks along with quality Whiting. The offshore wreck fishing remains good with plenty of Cod to double figures along with Pollack and Bass.
The fishing in the Thames estuary remains top class with quality Thornbacks along with Smoothounds to 15lb.
The dreaded may weed has now gone, this should improve the Mackerel fishing that is often difficult here due to the coloured water.
The quality Whiting we are catching at the moment are unusual at this time of year, we usually see them late summer, we are also catching them offshore on the Mackerel feathers.
Large shoals of school Bass heading up the estuary, here one minute gone the next. View Boats Page
