    Report on-board Brigand

    Another fantastic day out on the wrecks today, landed over 30 Pollock to 14 1/2lb and I even had a chance to get in on action for a spell!
    The big Cat made easy going of the stiff F5 and was a steady as a rock in the drift, a real pleasure to fish from.
    We are full tomorrow and a couple of places Monday for more of the same - if you are keen to get in on the action drop me a line.
    Best wishes

    Steve

  • 05/2017 Fishing Report by Kevin McKie on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

    May 2017 by Kevin McKie

    Report on-board Size Matters

    [This report was written when Size Matters was operating from Plymouth]

    I had a group of individuals onboard today, they had originally booked to target Cod. But with the Cod thin on the ground we decided to do the same as I did yesterday and fish half the day on the anchor and half the day on the drift.
    After a slow start the fish started to feed and the lads caught 30+ Conger to 53lb, 8 Ling to 24lb and 15 Pollack to 17lb before it was time to head home. This is pretty standard fishing off Plymouth at the moment, if you fancy getting in on the action give me a call, text or email.
    This Monday to Thursday we will be targeting the inshore reefs, these trips are ideal if you like catching Pollack, Ling, Bass and Cod on light tackle.

    Cheers

    May 2017 by Kevin McKie

    Report on-board Size Matters

    [This report was written when Size Matters was operating from Plymouth]

    First day of the season back on the anchor chasing Conger and Ling. The plan was to fish the first 3 hours on the anchor then go on the drift for Pollack.
    7 lads onboard who booked the whole boat, most of them had never see a conger let along caught one.
    After about 20 minutes of the baits hitting the sea bed, the rods where bent over with conger and Ling hooked up. One angler Chris landed a cracking Conger of just over 80lb and it was his first time Conger fishing, followed by Colin with a nice fish of 60lb, most of the Conger where 20lb to 40lb. Best Ling tipped the scales at 19lb and on the drift there was plenty of Pollack to 8lb. Now we have set the standard for our Conger fishing this year, last year our best Conger was 86lb and this year I would love to get one over the magical 100lb mark.
    If you have already booked a trip on Size Matters then you are in for some cracking fishing this season. If you haven't yet booked and want to start catching big fish then give me a call, text or email.

    Cheers

    19 May 2017 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Some reasonably good fishing this last week on the Shy-Torque. Average catch for the boat has been around the 60 fish mark. Not outstanding, granted, but not too bad for the time of year. Fish being taken on the lures as well as the bait.
    The tides are dropping nicely now and the water is also clearing so we are hoping the fishing is going to improve on last week.
    Tight lines
    Rich.

  • 18/05/2017 Fishing Report by jon old on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    18 May 2017 by jon old

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Today was great weather for once nice weak tides took advantage and headed out with DXB water Company and lads from Brentwood Essex, our first mark was already fished by commercial liner so had to move but managed few nice smoothounds with the pesky spotty dogs as usual. Still cant shake the whiting but all adds to the sport. At slack we moved out onto the 4 mile mark plenty of small smoothounds and doggies again ended up with a number of skate best pictured here with Howard todays winner just under 13.5lb nice fish. Looking like the better size smoothies are making a show now peeler crab if you can get it proving best bait. Will be doing few more evening trips soon so lookout for them if your interested. Big thanks to Derek for todays trip much appreciated looking forward to our next jolly next month always a pleasure to see you guys.
    Cheers Jon (High Flyer)

  • 05/2017 Fishing Report by Kevin McKie on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

    Report on-board Size Matters

    [This report was written when Size Matters was operating from Plymouth]

    The summer has finally arrived here in Plymouth, the weather is starting to settle and the fishing is as good as it gets.
    Our Best day so far has been 81 Pollack to 15lb and 10 Ling to 20lb, most days we are catching 50 plus Pollack and Ling a trip.
    Best Pollack so far tipped the scales at 17lb 5oz with very good numbers of double figure fish showing too. As for the Ling, most are 15lb to 20lb. We have also had the odd Cod to 6lb and Coalfish to 4lb. This time last year we where catching Cod to 17lb and in good numbers, this year they seem to be a bit late arriving.
    We will start to put the anchor down starting from tomorrow, this should result in us catching some very big Ling and Conger.
