  • 12/06/2017 Fishing Report by Malcolm Collins on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)

    12 Jun 2017 by Malcolm Collins

    Report on-board Just Mary

    The past few weeks if not months have produced some challenging conditions for Skippers and Anglers alike. However we have managed to keep our bookings going by careful planning of tides, wind direction and choosing the right locations. As Roy Castle used to say on 'Record Breakers'.....'dedication's what you need'.....and a good deal of planning avoids pee poor performance ! So the Anderson clan from Swindon, who only visit me once a year and use my hire rods and bait enjoyed a good morning on the Bream before an afternoon of strong winds and a change of tide direction. My regulars enjoyed a trip to Dancing Ledge in 'challenging conditions' but we found plenty of Bream and other species including a big Conger that made the 'Great Escape' through the scupper. The rest of the fleet staying the other side of Peveril Ledge, I guess you just have to trust what you drive ? Two half days last weekend and again more planning, a Stag party on hire rods enjoyed Spotted Ray, Dogfish and Undulate Ray plus a big female lobster full of berries (eggs) that was photographed and returned after being tail cut. The afternoon party again had Spotted Ray and Dogfish on hire gear. Sunday and a Charter of only four landed half a dozen spotted rays and Dogs before we moved to avoid the wind over tide scenario. The move produced a nice Undulate Ray on anchor then gurnard and plaice on the drift. This coming weekend looks better.....about time too !

  • 06/2017 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    Jun 2017 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    This last weekend saw some very breezy conditions here at Whitby. We managed half a day with a team from Middlesborough on Saturday with nothing to report really. Sunday was cancelled for all with strong winds.

    The lads on last Fridays trip however benefited from some lovely weather and we were able to get them amongst the fish really well.

    Chris Parkins from Leeds and 4 of his mates joined us for the day. We started on the ground on the inside marks for half a dozen fish to 3 or 4 lbs. After half an hour scratting around we decided to push off shore to a couple of wrecks I have which I knew hadn't been touched for a good week or so. The first wreck produced around 15 fish to 7lb and the second producing much better with around 40 fish with cod to just short of 10lb.

    The lads were made up with the day for being fortunate enough to drop on great weather and great fishing.

    Most of the fish were taken on the shad and jelly's.

    Chris and the lads are pictured with some of their catch.

    Take a look in the gallery for some great pictures.

    Tight lines as ever

    Report on-board Skylark

    Photos of some of the fish caught on today's 6 hour inshore trip.

    Fishing still slow compared to previous years but water is slowly starting to clear up so it should improve shortly. Also we had alot of wind so we were unable to fish alot of our popular marks as it was unpleasant there.

    Best fish today was joint we had to pollock identical in size and weight both 6lb

    As well as the fish pictured we had several cod and coalfish which were just undersize as well as 2 ballan wrasse.

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Paul Hoyle and 5 of his mates joined us on Thursday. Conditions weren't perfect but were fishable.
    After a few hours the dreaded Mal de mere hit home with 3 of the crew falling ill.
    This just left Paul, Ricky and Dave fishing and they managed to rake around 25 fish between them. The best fish falling to Ricky with a lovely golden cod of 9lb 3oz.
    Not hectic fishing by any standards but the lads enjoyed the day and took plenty of fillets home for the table.
    Ricky is pictured with his best fish.

  • 10/06/2017 Fishing Report by Bob Marshall on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)

    10 Jun 2017 by Bob Marshall

    Report on-board Duke IV

    As the water warms and clears the fishing has been reliable with plenty of Skate with good shoals of Bass when the water drops clear. Also the Smoothound fishing has been good with plenty one day and none the next. Herring remains the best bait with lugworm catching all species. Mackerel have started showing to feathers although again can't be relied upon for bait. Fergus enjoyed showing all how to catch fish including the Hound pictured that took a liking to a herring chunk. Plenty of space available on Duke lV weekdays and still spaces available for individuals on 24thJune.
