Massive thanks to Olivia for arranging a private charter for Oliver's birthday on Saturday, the lads travelled all the way up from Lancaster for a run out in lumpy but generally decent conditions. Plenty of codling, pouting and whiting came aboard steadily throughout the day. The First Mate powered himself up with hot beef casserole, and managed to find a few nice pan-sized codling for his efforts. Top baits were monster cart wings, squid, mussel and blacks, on custom made pulley pennel rigs courtesy of Billy's Fishing Tackle - North Shields.

It was a pleasure to welcome aboard our regulars over the last few trips, and most notably the American party who visited our region on Friday (their top rod was celebrating his 76th birthday)! They were great sports and fully understood that we were all guinea pigs testing the inner grounds, whilst fishing on anchor for the first time this year. Of course we nipped out to a wreck at slack water, and found a few late season Mackerel and a small Ling. Lots of fish came aboard steadily throughout the days, sometimes three at a time, predominantly Whiting, Coalies, Haddock and some decent Pollack and Codling, with a Dogfish thrown in for good measure.

With a slight break in the weather, the lads did incredibly well to brave a lumpy Saturday run out. It was tough going due to the challenging conditions, but they kept at it from the first minute to the last...the harder you work the luckier you get, and with some perseverance we managed to find some nice Ling, Pollack, Codling, Haddock, and any amount of good Whiting, Coalies, Pouting and Mackerel for the pan.

Richard had spent a couple of days on the riverbank in Northumberland hunting Salmon and Sea Trout guided by James Armstrong from Chasing Fins Worldwide. Although it was a tad lumpy, we arranged a change of scenery, and had a quick run out to try an inner wreck to find him some Codling, small Ling and Mackerel for the plate!

Sunday funday went from a thick carpet of fog, to baking hot sunshine, flat seas and no wind, to the centre of an intense thunder, lightning and rain storm cloud on the run home! Some great Ling, Codling, Pollack, Haddock, Coalies and Mackerel steadily coming aboard. The First Mate thought he had the £100 sweep in the bag with about 4 or 5 codling up to 7lb, until the bigger Ling came aboard late afternoon for Adam to claim it
