tue 4th june
MONSTER LING
what a cracking weeks fishing. topped off today by Ronnie saying I've got a canny fish on here. as his maximus solid carbon rod doubled over
well we picked away all day on the cod steady away and much more mackerel today. some of it that ronnie used to tempted this monster
after a good 5-10 minute tussle. this white shape under the water got bigger and bigger. and up popped this lovely 35lbs ling
well done ron dont think that one will be topped for a while, its certainly the best on the north east coast for a few years.

Report on-board Kerrykim
Hi
Out yesterday despite the high winds. We can fish comfortably in fresh South West winds because of the high cliffs.
We had plenty of good reef pollock , a few codling and Coley's and Huss, Dogs and Whiting off the bottom.
A good day all in all.
Cheers

on Our Joe (Paignton, Devon)

Report on-board Our Joe
May 2019 aboard Our Joe-L ����������
We’ve had several Mid Channel Wrecking trips this month from charters and individual bookings. The earlier trips producing some nice fish as always and in big numbers but towards the end of May the Mid Channel Wrecks started to produce less fish than usual so rather than flog the dead horse, this gave me the perfect chance to head to some of our lesser known inshore marks that are often steamed over by angling boats. Believe it or not there is still one or two that the commercial boats don’t yet know about and we certainly had a couple of good days on them, producing Cod to 13lb 2oz and Pollock to 14lb 8oz.
We also had the chance to explore out into the Herd’s Deep in search of some new territory and to find some new marks. The 18hour day proved quite successful with every wreck holding plenty of fish and even the rough ground marks produced fish which I was doubtful about to start with. Conditions weren’t on our side but the Our Joe-L handled it fine in the deep stuff and although she was drifting a bit too fast for the deeper water due to the 20knts of wind, we was still catching sizeable fish. I set a time limit on each wreck of 45 mins weather we was catching or not. This was because we was there mainly to find as many wrecks as possible and also to leave plenty of fish for next time, not wanting to just catch everything on the first mark we found until it was gone and go home.
We’ve also hosted one of our Devon Sea Fishing Holidays. Over the years the May bank holiday trip has become a bit of a competition with two trophies up for grabs for best fish and most species of the week, our regular holiday fisher Bob Nunn cleared up winning both with 9 species and a Cod of 13lb.
We’ve also had Bass, Ray and Plaice trips throughout the month with very mixed results throughout mainly due to the may weed blooming very thick and fast but luckily things are now clear again.
One of the days that stood out purely as it was something different for us was a 3 boat competition charter that was booked up with Our Joe-L, Gemini and Outlaw. With all 3 of us fishing out of Dartmouth for a Start bay species comp. knowing both other vessels fish the area a lot more than we do I knew we’d have our work cut out and with it being a big tide it wasn’t going to help thing all.. still come the end of the day the angler in gunwale position 4 aboard non other than OUR JOE-L won the day with a total of 6 species and over 15 fish. A good day to be aboard Our Joe-L!
Overall species caught in May include;
Cod to 13lb 2oz
Pollock to 15lb
Ling to 12lb
Bull Huss to 12lb
Bass to 6lb 8oz
Coalfish
Ballan Wrasse
Cuckoo Wrasse
Tub Gernerd to 3lb 10oz
Red Gernard
Plaice
Turbot
Launce
Conger to 35lb
Poor Cod
Herring
Whiting
DogFish
Pouting
Mackerel
. . . and one cuttlefish
With more fishing holidays booking in for June and our first ever Alderney fishing holiday we are looking forward to seeing what the next month brings and the rest of 2019!!!
Tight lines and sea you in June !!!

Fishing Report by Kevin McKie
on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)
Jun 2019 by Kevin McKie
Report on-board Size Matters
Our time in Scotland has now come to an end, the last three months have been a great experience for both anglers and my self.
Firstly I would like to say a massive thanks to all the staff at Croabh Haven Marina, they have been amazing and could not do enough for me and my anglers.
Also all the staff at the lord of the Isles pub where excellent no matter what time we would get back from fishing, the staff would have a table ready for all the anglers for food and drinks. (The food here is excellent).
If you have never been to this part of Scotland then you should definitely check it out, not just for fishing but the views, food, drink and wildlife is amazing.
The biggest thank you goes to the 244 anglers who booked with us and made the long journey up here from all over the UK and Ireland.
Most of them stayed for three to five days
spending well over £120,000 on accommodation, food, drink, fuel, fishing, bait and in some cases flights and hire cars.
The Skate fishing was truly outstanding at times, we totalled 641 Skate for a total weight of 80617lb!!!
We averaged 9.1 Skate a day with the average weight of 125lb 8oz!!
442 Skate where female and 199 were male, we caught 44 over 200lb and 359 over 100lb!!
When we fished inside the marine protection zone the recapture rate was around 20%, when we fished out side the marine protection zone the recapture rate was less than 2%.
The biggest Skate was caught by Wirrel angler Mick Walsh a cracking fish of 232lb!!
Bert Willams from the Wirral caught the first ever Blue Skate in Scottish waters all 22lb of it, this is an exceptional catch in UK waters.
The most Skate we caught in one days was 37 for a total weight of 2790lb, by Garry Streeter and his lads from South Wales.
The Liverpool A Team consisting of Phil Riley, John Owan, John Mcbride and Paul Hendrick, had the most weight in one day with 20 Skate for a massive total weight of 3590lb!!
The best part about this is all the Skate are out there swimming around to be caught again in future.
Anglers kept telling me each day what an amazing experience it has been for them to catch big fish in UK waters.
If you have never had a fish in UK waters over 100lb then this part of Scotland is definitely the place to do it, you mite even get lucky and catch a Skate over 200lb!!
Only four anglers never caught a Skate with us and on another day after returning from an off shore trip the lads wanted a few hours on the skate, this was the only day we never caught a skate.
Sadly we only got chance to fish for Six Gill Sharks once over 80 miles out, the sea bed was alive with sea lice and big baits where lasting 25 mins max making the fishing very hard.
We went shark fishing on the drift twice but on both occasions we had very tough conditions, wind against tide and no wind at all.
We also tried a few gravel and sand banks but once the Spurdogs moved in nothing got a chance at the baits.
We did find some amazing Pollack fishing no monster fish but 5lb to 9.5lb, on the both days we went there the lads had 120 Pollack in 2 hours the first day then 90 Pollack in 2 hours the next day.
It was great to see massive shoals of fish on the sonar, most importantly the lads only took what they needed for the table and all stopped fishing when they had enough.
Last but by no means least there is no way we could of caught this amount of fish without the top quality fishing tackle from our sponsors Shimano UK, thank you for your continued support.
