    Report on-board Alexia

    Well we’re do I start, January has been a cracking month for both fishing and days at sea with settled weather throughout the month. We have been working hard on the uptide/downtide grounds and have seen some belting fish over the rails . Some days we have had 100 plus codlings over the rails with the average stamp around the 2lb to 4lb mark but this month saw regular Dave Jenkins boat a couple of crackers into double figures on the same trip of 11lb 2 ounce and the second over 14lb. We have also had pollock to 7lb and few doggies here and there. We now have the WCSA festival dates which are for the competitions here at Whitby below.
    The Spring competition dates are April 18th to May 3rd INC. Big cash prizes!!
    The Summer competition dates are June 27th to July 19th INC Get yourselves a trip booked to have a chance of winning a prize worth up to £5000.00 in pound notes!!
    The late Summer competition dates are August 29th to September 13th INC You can book any places as from now. Please note booking early will result in you getting the best tides especially over the summer festival and autumn festival as it’s mostly over the wrecks and rough ground. We are also taking bookings for our 2 and 3 hr taster trips which are ideal for family’s and beginners . For more info or to book onto one of our trips give Barry a call on 07470354403

    Report on-board Mistress

    Hi guys, well, time for an update, its been an absolutely belting week for the anglers aboard us.

    Both day and night trips have produced good numbers of fish, our anglers have been responsible returning many sized fish and keeping just a handful for the table. a few days have seen well over 100 codlings over the gunnels, each day.

    Best bait remains black lug and unwashed squid. Cart is producing well, but the bites come faster to the worm and squid.

  • 25/01/2020 Fishing Report by Kevin McKie on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

    25 Jan 2020 by Kevin McKie

    Report on-board Size Matters

    The fishing from Liverpool onboard Size Matters has been very surprising to say the least for this time of year.

    One group wanted to give the off shore marks ago, I told them the fishing can be very poor out there at this time of year.

    The lads where happy to gamble because we had such a good forecast.

    The lads had none stop action for 3 hours catching 60 Pollack to 12lb 8oz and 3 Cod to 3lb on the drift.

    Then we decided to put the anchor down but the fishing was very poor with just a few whiting and dogfish being caught.

    On the way in we filleted all the fish as we always do and the Pollock where full of roe, this is the first time in 25 years I have seen Pollack in the Irish Sea with roe in side them, surely this could mean we now have a winter Pollack fishery in the Irish Sea.

    Anyone who is booked onboard Size Matters from now till the end of February will be offered the opportunity to go offshore instead of fishing the Mersey if the weather allows.

    Fishing in the Mersey is getting much better, averaging 25 to 30 cod per trip, most are 2lb to 4lb but we have had a few better ones to 8lb 4oz.

    Our best day in the Mersey we landed 39 Cod along with Rays, Flounder, Whiting, Dab and Rockling.

    12 year old Danny was top rod fishing with his grandad for the first time on the Mersey, they landed 17 Cod between them, keeping just the ones that where deep hooked and letting the rest go.

    It’s been good to see a lot of first time anglers onboard lately catching there first ever fish and enjoying the sport.

    Thanks
