  • 21/03/2018 Fishing Report by Gareth Jones on Wild Frontier 2 (Weymouth, Dorset)

    Report on-board Wild Frontier 2

    Every now and then you get the perfect fishing day. One of mine was on 21/03/2018 on the one and only Wild Frontier. It was a beautiful sunny day with Weymouth Bay being mill pond flat calm. Clem sped off to one of his favoured Western wrecks.. Two and bit hours later we started fishing; first drift, two decent pollack. I was at the front starboard side of the oat with my work colleague and mate next to me. Over the next five or so hours, I caught 13 pollack between 5 and 13 lbs and my mate Dave caught 11. I also caught a bonus cod as well as another club member who caught a bigger cod. The sea state remained flat calm until home time, when the breeze picked up a bit. For most of the day I used a 6" yellowish lure with a straight tail (no paddle). Great day, great company, great result. Thanks Clem

    Report on-board Size Matters

    Today the lads wanted an early finish because of the long drive home to Manchester.

    They managed to catch 6 Skate to a massive 220lb, the rest where 170lb, 141lb, 76lb, 58lb, 38lb. It was good to see a few smaller Skate today, this shows the skate are thriving in the area.

    Owan Cambell caught the biggest today and yesterday 204lb and 220lb!!
    The photo of the 220lb skate does not do it justice it was 88 inch long, 71 inch wing span and was very fat.

    Thanks

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    At last we managed to get a few days afloat and the fishing proved very rewarding, on the Saturday we ventured out to the wrecks in what was very challenging conditions far worse than forecast but once there the Pollack fishing was very good with several fish being landed each drift the best of the day went to Ian Napier at 14lb 6 ozs, after a few hrs and plenty of Pollack onboard we chose to head back inshore and see if the Spurdogs were still around. At anchor the fishing started very slow but just as we thought about heading home the Spurdogs started to feed and several fish between 17 and 20lb were landed and quickly returned then that man Ian Napier hooked into a good fish that put his light gear to the test and was rewarded with a PB Spurdog of 24lb 10ozs. Sunday we opted to go after the Spurs again and were duly rewarded with 4 of the Poole Dolphins AC landing PB Spurdogs to 19lb along with a few Rays, spurred on (pardon the pun) by our recent success the crew on Monday wanted to sample the sport and we again headed out to the same area and again were rewarded with more success and another 2 anglers setting new PBs for Spurdogs , due to the very light tackle we were using the strength of the tide forced us to move closer to shore out of the tide and once at anchor we managed a small Turbot and a Brill to round the day off. Overall a very successful weekend and it felt fantastic to actual be at sea fishing instead of looking at weather patterns.

  • 25/03/2018 Fishing Report by TERRY BATT on Vanishing Point-2 (Bradwell Marina, Essex)

    25 Mar 2018 by TERRY BATT

    Report on-board Vanishing Point-2

    Well the fishing drought is over, as the usual; marks start to produce fish once again, and in good numbers..!!!

    We fished off-shore on Sunday with a new party for us, a chap called Larry organised the trip (you can read his revue) although it was lovely to see the boys, it was tainted with a little sadness that we only got the party because one of our other top skippers has recently passed away...... Lester Baker who run a very nice boat out of Brightlingsea called Sea-Watch.

    But life goes on, and I think Lester would have been proud of his lads not only were they a fantastic crew, but the banter never stopped from start to finish and once they got stuck into the fish they landed 42 good Thornback Rays up to 13 lbs so very busy most of the day, and they brought enough bacon, sausages, and burgers to sink a battleship...lol but with the weather being flat calm it was a most enjoyable day...!!! and the boys got off the Vanishing Point about a stone heavier than they got on.... ha ha ha ..!! we will see you on the next adventure lads with Terry Batt Sports Charters..!!

    If any of you out there would like to experience this truly amazing sport's charter boat call : 07768306646

    Tight lines and Hot & Guns.....!!
