Report on-board Size Matters
[This report was written when Size Matters was operating from Plymouth]
After doing 30 straight days of charters, it was a relief to take time off last week when the weather turned bad.
This give me chance to see the family and recharge my batteries, as soon as the weather settled it was back to work as usual and putting our anglers on fish.
The lads from Bristol who fish with me every month where kept busy catching Pollack and Ling in to double figures.
They also managed to catch some monster Tub Gurnard and a surprise Red Mullet.
After catching the Red Mullet I totalled up how many species we have caught on Size Matters and it stands at 63 so far.
The best news of all is that the Shark fishing is in full swing, the lads today managed 19 Blue Sharks to 105lb, long my it continue.
Here are the last few dates available for 2020 from Plymouth onboard Size Matters.

Fishing is superb at the moment. Plenty of smoothounds and bass. The Thornback Rays have disappeared at the moment and dogfish numbers have dropped.

Report on-board Dointhedo
Another fantastic day with a returning group. The lads are a laugh a minute and it turned up a surprise fish today. Our first scheduled Shark trip isn't until Monday 29th of July when we have a dedicated Thresher trip on, so when Kiwi "Mark Burton" landed a small Thresher today the boat was buzzing. We really didn't have a slow or slack period as we netted plenty of double figure Rays. We also had good smoothounds, and plenty of Strap Congers, and Bream and once again Caroline kept the fresh bait coming with Mackerel. Makes us wonder now as when Mark landed his Thresher, we also had 2 complete bite offs when the line was not that unsubstantial. Sam never gave up at all and was the last to land his targeted species... A double figure Undulate, and he pulled it out of the bag by netting two. Dogfish were conspicuous by their absence and we had no more than a dozen all day between all anglers. Thanks to Jay Young for organising another fantastic day.

Report on-board Obsession
Hello it’s lee here The month of July report We started off down in looe in Cornwall winning the shark festival which was a very good outcome seen some nice sharks whilst down in the Cornish waters . after the festival we headed back to Brixham had a shark trip out of Brixham which was a fantastic day had some very nice sharks couple over 100 lb mark 10 sharks in total range in different sizes very good start to the shark season .On the wrecking side of stuff The inshore wrecks have been very good on the Conger eels seeing around 20 to 30 a day and chucking up the odd black bream .The last week the skerries bank has been fishing very well on the plaice Just yesterday we had a nice 4 pound plaice come to the boat nice to see and a turbot lots of Plaice between the pound and 2 pound mark but a bit plumper this time of year and the odd free pounder . On the blonde Ray front down the Skerries Bank been a bit slow due to commercial fishing pressure netting hopefully that will pick up again it normally takes a week or so to pick up. The fishing conditions have been very good to us we had some very good hits on the mackerel in the bay But have been very thin on the ground the last week .The bass have just turned up and this Month so have that to offer but still only a one fish per person day unfortunately due to the regulations we hope to be running a few more bream trips this year on rough ground But As you all know we can turn our hand to anything and try and fit you all in and different types of fishing to cater for you all take care and hope to hear from you all soon tight lines .thanks lee

Report on-board Flamer IV
Nick Collier on his first trip on Flamer IV landed a "Grand Slam" of flatfish, catching his first ever Turbot a Plaice and a Brill. Nick is pictured with his 4Ib Brill. Nick and his friends caught a variety of species while drifting the famous Shambles Bank which included Turbot, Brill, Plaice, Blonde Ray, Lesser Weaver, Dogfish, Mackerel and a Conger which we don't catch very often on that mark. The successful baits were a combination of Mackerel and Squid strips and Launce fillets.
My next trip with places for individuals - are on August 5th and 6th, View Boats Page
