Fishing Report by Malcolm Collins
on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)
4 Apr 2019 by Malcolm Collins
Report on-board Just Mary
As I sit at my desk in the Office looking out on a cold, wet and windy day here on the South Coast my thoughts turn to the coming season. 'Just Mary' is currently moored in the River Stour at Tuckton, birthplace of my paternal Grandfather and a man who unfortunately passed away before I was born. He had fought, as a very young man, in the First World War in Salonika against the 'Slavs' and in the Middle East against the 'Turks' whilst in the Royal Horse Artillery, he sent postcards back home from Jerusalem as a Sergeant in a truly local Regiment based in Christchurch. When the Second World War erupted in 1939 he tried desperately to enlist again but his age (43) and an injury from the Great War prevented him from doing so. Determined to 'do his bit' and get involved he joined the Volunteer Force which became the Home Guard known later as 'Dads Army'. At this time he lived with my Nan and his five children, with my Dad being the youngest at only 5 years old, in the Coastguard Cottages in Wick Lane at Christchurch. As he lived on the River Stour he was given the job of organising the defence of the Harbour, the Rivers and local beaches as the local Sergeant. On Tuckton Island, where I keep my dinghy to access 'Just Mary' there is a hidden pill box which my Grandfather used to man with his squad of mates, there is another one in Elkins Boatyard. The family named the Island at Tuckton as 'Ted's Island', the pill box was there to overlook the River and prevent German Commandos from coming up the River and blowing up Tuckton Bridge close nearby. Every time I use the dinghy on 'Ted's Island' to access 'Just Mary' I walk in the footsteps of my Grandfather, a man who I sadly never got to meet, but a great man nonetheless. We will be running trips from Christchurch this year, 2019, eighty years on from the outbreak of the Second World War, in honour of my Grandfather, Edwin 'Ted' George Collins, of the Royal Horse Artillery, Barrack Road, Christchurch.

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
31.03.2019.
Sunday saw another lovely calm day here at Whitby with a gentle ground swell. We had a couple of good mates on board, Guy Wrightson & Simon England , along with a mixed group.
We targeted wrecks for the day pushing to a couple out at 25 mile and had a nice picking. Best fish was a ling of 8 lb with a nice bag of cod for each of the lads. too. Again, all the fish were taken on the squid bait.
Tight lines

Fishing Report by Kevin McKie
on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)
Apr 2019 by Kevin McKie
Report on-board Size Matters
The Preston lad’s joined the 200lb club over the last two day’s, with Roy’s lucky school shoes, as he likes to call them.
On the first day the lad’s caught 9 Skate,
4 over 200lb with the biggest going
90 inch X 71 inch 226lb!!
George got the big Skate at 226lb, followed by Roy with his biggest ever Skate of 207lb,
Brian was very lucky he caught 2 Skate over 200lb (201lb & 202lb) on his first ever Skate fishing trip!!
On the second day we started off very well with two Skate over 200lb for Mick (204lb) and Luke (203lb).
Then the light rod (for Blackmouth Dogfish) bent over with a Skate on, George was up for the challenge and 1 hour and 10 mins later he landed a Skate of 143lb on a Shimano Vengeance 20/30 and Shimano Torium 20HG reel loaded with 50lb braid.
After that the lads caught 5 more Skate to take the total to 8 for the day.
While Roy was fighting one of the Skate we realised he had left his bum in his going out suit ha ha (check the photo out).
Joke’s aside we did catch a Skate with a rope around its tail again, we quickly removed it but by the look of it I think it will lose it’s tail.
Massive thanks to the lad’s for all the good banter and team work onboard.
So far we have now caught a total of 216 Skate to 232lb with 26 over the magic 200lb mark!!
We still have May 15th and 16th available whole boat charter only.
