Report on-board Bad Boyz VI
Another good mixed day starting on many of great reefs holyhead has to offer, Wrasse was a target for the morning session which seemed to go down well with a few new species die the lads on board especially the beautiful male Cuckoo Wrasse! Other catches on the reefs included plenty of Pollack and Coalies to 3lb along with the odd Codling and lonesome single mackeral!

Once the tide started to ease we called lines in, Boat put up to speed and wreck selected, one that I hasn't fished for a few years so eager to say the least!
8 sausage and egg sandwiches later and it was time for the first drift, good speed 2.1kts......Fish on!! What every skipper likes to hear, 5 fish to be exact to the first drift and so it continued for the following hour best fish going to 7lb and average 4lb not whoppers but great sport nevertheless!
Once the tide had eased further time soon approached to get the anchor down so a quick move to the side of the wreck, Anchor down, Baits down, Fish on straight away, A Tope of 21lb this was soon followed by a Spurdog at 13lb but unfortunately a quiet spelt with only doggies followed until after slack which the kids produced another Spurdog of similar size and a single huss.
A good day all round with enough time for brews, butties, hotpot, walnut cake and Cherry sponge cake!
Nice to see a Mersey hounds species cards making a show for the new species.
Ps.... Plus a few very red necks thanks to that sun -

on Obsession (Mevagissey, Cornwall)

Report on-board Obsession
With a decent forecast predicted, Obsession made the most of the weather and headed out to the mid channel wrecks on Sunday. Some cracking fish back on the scene with plenty of prime Pollock upto 22lb and some new season Cod upto 20lb.
View Boats Page
The fishing was very brisk and the Anglers were kept busy on the drifts which was producing 3-4 fish per drift.
Very satisfying that everyone caught and went home happy with plenty of fillets for the freezer.
If you are looking for some serious sport then contact Kev for Wreck, Reef, bank and Sharking

on Just Mary (Christchurch, Dorset)

Report on-board Just Mary
First Bream trip of the new 'season' and we dropped straight into some decent Bream on Southbourne Rough. Several good ones for Mark 'Mac' MacNeaney, who's more Irish than Guinness, and for my Neighbour Paul Green who's a true 'Poolite' from our Home Port, all about the 2lb 4oz mark when weighed onboard fresh from the Sea. We still stick to our belief that nature needs to be protected so all the roe bearing females are released whilst the best of the abundant males are retained for the table. This time of year the Black Bream are in prime condition for spawning and eating, fresh from the Sea there can be few better eating fish in my opinion. In total fish numbers, of all species including the Bream, Pollack, Pouting, Dogfish, Wrasse and a Small Conger, we had well over a hundred fish caught with many returned. A cold start to the day in a North Easterly but the wind eased and the Sun shone, good fishing in good company, so come and join us, all the best, ta Malc.
