    Report on-board Size Matters

    The Skate fishing in Scotland continues to be excellent, best day this week has been 10 Skate.

    Top angler so far has been 66 year old Mick Walsh from Wallasey, he landed two skate with in a hour of each other.

    The biggest was 232lb (90 inch x 73 inch) followed by a cracking fish of 199lb (86 inch x 66 inch).

    When the weather has been settled we have continued to fish outside the the Marine Protection Area.

    On one of the days we caught a Skate of 174lb in 640ft of water and 4 hours later we caught the same fish.

    On another day we caught our first Skate with no tail going by the wing span of 68 inch this fish was over 200lb.

    So far we have caught Skate every day and every angler has caught Skate, long my this continue for the rest of the season.

    Total amount of Skate so far is 47, we have also caught Thornback Ray, Spur Dog and Dogfish.

    Massive thanks to Ammo baits Scotland for supplying my anglers with top quality bait.

    Size Matters is fully booked till November.

    From mid April Buoy Alba Charters will be available, this boat is a 30ft Evolution Skippered by Davie.

    We will be working as a team to bring you some top quality fishing on the west coast of Scotland.

    Davie is no stranger to big fish in Scottish waters, he is one of only a few people to have caught Porbeagle Sharks over 300lb from his own boat.

    He has also caught hundreds of Skate from boat and shore.

    Give him a call for available dates

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Forecasts are all looking a bit rubbish until Friday lads and lasses. Looking ok for Friday at the moment.

    We will be running off if anyone fancies a trip. The last few uptiding trips have proven quite fruitful for us and we will sail with just 3 anglers on board.

    Room this coming weekend. Also spaces next Monday and Tuesday.

    Cheers for now.

    Report on-board Pegasus

    February 2019

    We managed to get out 11 days in February which isn't too bad at all, Inshore fishing has been getting better, we've had a great winter inshore, and now that the water temp is on its way up again the spring species seem to be feeding better with lots of Smoothounds in small to medium size range being caught in the later half of February, this along with 4 different species of Ray, Bull Huss, Conger, Whiting, Ballan and Cuckoo wrasse and the obligatory Pout and Dogfish make for a god fun days fishing inshore and has made for some very entertaining species fishing, the Reef Pollack are getting to a decent size now as well with fish over 10lb being caught on the inshore reefs in the last week of February, great fun on light gear. The fishing Offshore and to the east at anchor has been steady with Blonde Rays being caught over 20lb on the banks, the odd Spurdog, Ling and Undulate Ray and lots of Huss and Conger on the rough ground and reefs. Wrecking also improved a lot mid February, but a visit from the netters slowed the fishing down toward the end of the month although I still managed to find enough fish to keep everyone happy but nothing big with the best Pollack of the month at 13lb.
    There are still weekend individuals spaces on a few dates in March, mostly offshore anchored trips.

  • 03/2019 Fishing Report by Kevin McKie on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

    Mar 2019 by Kevin McKie

    Report on-board Size Matters

    We have had a great start to the skate fishing in Scotland, in just a few days we have had 28 Skate, the best day so far is 11 Skate to 207lb.

    When the weather has been good we have been fishing well out side the Marine Protection Area for Skate.

    The results have been excellent with Skate caught every day, this is very encouraging considering they are not protected areas.

    We even had one Skate cough up a Torsk about 4lb, so who knows what mite turn up over the next few months.

    Ammo Baits Scotland have just received 7 pallets of Mackerel, XL Squid and Octopus, so if you need any bait give them a call or message on 07854888293.

    The anglers we have had on so far have loved the Shimano Tyrnos 80lb class rods and Tyrnos 30 twin speed reels, they are excellent for skate fishing as you can see in the photos.

    Thanks
