  • 11/2017 Fishing Report by Sam Cumming on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)

    Nov 2017 by Sam Cumming

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    Top trip for last month was certainly our final trip over to Alderney for the year. I've always liked going across the channel this late in the season, providing you can get a bit of favourable weather, the fishing is never disappointing. Day one saw a decent enough session at anchor on a wreck for congers and bream, unfortunately no ling this time around which was disappointing as we had plenty the week before. Day Two started off with Bob Hall's couches bream double header, the most we have ever had on the whole boat for the day is 2 so this was something special. The catches continued throughout the day however and we ended up with 19 couches coming to the net, including ten for Ian Napier who was just hoping to catch his first one on this trip. Plenty of hard fighting black bream of varying sizes were caught by all throughout the day mostly returned for next year. A manic session on the anchor saw tope up to 50lb, bull huss, more bream and even a bonus plaice (only the second one I've ever seen in Alderney). Day Three started off with a few hours on the banks which produced half a dozen flats, tub gurnards and cuttlefish, nothing massive but we have had worse days than that this year. Then off to anchor up a big rock mark which was very productive with huss, bream, congers and plenty more big tope. To round the day off we did an hours breaming back by the island, a slow start turned into a frantic half an hour with the bream taking anything you put down there. Average size was way up on the previous day at around 3lb. Bob Hall had the last say of the day with a couches bream and black bream double this time. Day four and the weather unfortunately turned for the worst and we were faced with a small neap tide against 20 knots of westerly. The prospect of swinging round and round the anchor rope all day didn't appeal so we headed back across to Poole Bay to finish the trip up in calmer waters. Out of only a handful of mackerel the lads managed 6 small eyed rays, 1 undulate, 2 smoothounds and would you believe it a 15lb 4oz turbot!?!?! All the time we have spent steaming around looking for those flatfish far and wide and we catch the biggest one of the year right on our doorstep. That’s going to be a tough trip to beat. We are now taking bookings for Alderney 2018 so drop us an email for a list of dates. info@silverspraycharters.com

    Report on-board SWN Y MOR

    Hi out Sunday with regular and anglers from the midlands. Big tides and coloured water ment general and some reef fishing. . Loads of good whiting about catching them 4 at time. each angler filled their cool boxes and more in other containers. It should keep them supplied with good eating fish for weeks. Some mackerel about even on these large tides. We shall see if there is more on the next heaps. Pollack and COALFISH on reefs but cloudy water making it hard work. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR SPECIAL LOW WINTER RATES. If weather suitable will get you offshore for really good fishing especially on the neap tides as a long slack gives you the chance to get among the larger cod pollack and COALFISH. We fish all year when wether allows cheers ROY

  • 19/11/2017 Fishing Report by Gareth John on Hurricane (Isle of Sheppey, Kent)

    19 Nov 2017 by Gareth John

    Report on-board Hurricane

    Despite most people complaining about the lack of cod i have been keeping busy still with some nice thornbacks and lots of quality whiting which make for good eating and keep the rods nodding .
    I have done it again just like last year and today just caught the first codling which was not huge but a sizeable 46cm and a nice fat fish.
    I remain optimistic and my recent trips have seen all the anglers catching nice bags of fish and my recent reviews reflect the happy customers satisfaction.
    Theres plenty of fish waiting out there people but you wont catch them from your armchairs .
    The good thing about the area i operate is we seldom get blown off

    Some cracking fishing at Whitby at the moment, both inshore and offshore.

    The wrecks and grounds are fishing around the 9 mile areas as are the more offshore areas around the 18 and 20 mile marks. The "Wall" is as ever, at this time of year, producing the goods too.

    The areas inside for the uptiding (anchor fishing) are producing too and we will sail with just 2 anglers on those trips. There are a good few dates with availability for individuals as well as empty boat availability too.

    If you fancy a trip over the next few weeks leading up to Xmas give me a ring on the usual numbers :-

  • 11/2017 Fishing Report by Aaron Smith on Bad Boyz VI (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)

    Nov 2017 by Aaron Smith

    Report on-board Bad Boyz VI

    That's a wrap on our second week afloat on the River Mersey, fishing has certainly slowed as the rays ease off and we await the arrival od larger numbers of Cod.

    Our best day this week settled on 12 Cod to 8lb, 30 rays to 11lb, whiting to 2lb and the usually dogs, dabs.

    Saturday we hosted George and his crew's from Liverpool who have fished with us for many year's from Holyhead, We had a great day afloat under a winters sun. They boated 13 Cod to 8lb, 25 Rays, Plaice to 2 1/2lb, Dabs, Conger, Whiting, Pouting and Flounder. Already looming forward to there next outing on January.

    As with all fishing, everyday was different, some fairly slow days in general with hectic short burst of fish, Fingers crossed next weeks tides should roll a few more Cod Into the River.

    Best fish of the week was a tough one, the plump 2 1/2lb Plaice was up there however it was only to be outdone by our first double figure Mersey Cod at 10lb 1oz with Mike T coming a close second with a Cod of 9lb 10oz.

    Most this year is now full, I still have dates available for January and February if you'd like to get afloat.

    Tight lines, Aaron

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Well its been a waiting game this past month everyones wanting a cod the reality of the situation is we have only had the odd one a trip probably in my opinion due to the unusually high water temperature at the moment but it is coming down last recorded sun 12th Nov at 10.5 degrees. The whitting have kept us extremely busy which we should be grateful for some nice keepers among them but honestly who wants pictures of strings of whitting? Been lucky with a few skate still hanging about also the spotty dogs which are now thinning out thank god and also the odd decent pouting making a show. Nice to see a bit of conservation as all skate and codling been returned. Picture today is of Brian cant mention his last name which is Hopper press ganged into having his picture taken as all we had was whitting to show so thanks mate! Lost quite a few trips due to the windy conditions last few weekends still got few places in December at weekends website up to date or midweek we will make a trip up if we can just ring or text will get things in place. Until then pray for cold weather and tight lines everyone. Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)
