  • 06/2016 Fishing Report by Simon Fisher on Just Fishing (Brixham, Devon)

    Jun 2016 by Simon Fisher

    Report on-board Just Fishing

    Fishing has been fanatic today onboard "Just Fishing" of Brixham.
    The first Wreck we went over showed real sign it was holding alot of fish and from the 2nd drift plenty of plump summer Pollock were coming to net, also some Cod but once the tide started running it was the Pollock that was giving the rod bending sport drift after drift, there were moments it got manic onboard as so many fish were coming up at the same time.
    By early afternoon the Lads said they had caught more than enough fish and wanted to head in which is always a great to hear
    Probably the last day Wrecking we'll squeeze in now this month as the wind forcast dosn't look promising but cant wait toget back out there!

    Report on-board Yorkshire Lass II

    Great day out with Paul on referendum day. There were 7 blokes from The Robin Hood fishing club in Derbyshire who made me most welcome. The boat had had a bumper haul of mackerel and herring the day before so there was a bit of banter of "you should have been here yesterday" I personally caught about a dozen big mackerel, a couple of hearings, 3 keeper cod, a few coal fish, a ling and plenty of pouting. Even had the one that got away when I was snapped off. We started under the cliffs at Flamborough and later moved onto a couple of wrecks. Paul tried really hard to put us on fish and the last wreck produced cod to 6lb plus some nice ling. Great day out and already booked up for a day in July. Tight lines Paul. All the best Stuart

    Report on-board Yorkshire Lass II

    Great day out with Paul who moved around to find fish all trip. We found a few mackerel, coley, whiting and Herring during the early part of the trip which culminated in a super finish to the day in the afternoon on two wrecks where good cod were caught by all

    Paul is experienced skipper and nothing is too much trouble, he wants all to have a good day fishing and in my experience this last two years we always have a good day.

    Great stuff Paul look forward to our next trip

  • 05/2016 Fishing Report by Gethyn Owen on My Way 2 (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)

    May 2016 by Gethyn Owen

    Report on-board My Way 2

    During the first few days in May and the weather decided it wasn’t best for My Way to set sail, we remained tied up while temperamental winds had their say.

    During the first weekend, things settled down over the Spring Tides. Conditions were still breezy but quite good given the conditions, pollack and codling on the drift with doggies, whiting, more codling, huss & others coming to the boat at anchor.

    We managed a couple first of the year early May, with a very small tope falling to Stockport angler Lisa, this tope also being her first catch of the species.

    My Way regular Mark Dolben also came up trumps with the first smoothhound of the year. A pair either side of the 10lb mark kick starting what was to be another fantastic season on these hard fighting small sharks.

    By the middle of the month, we had some fairly settled weather coinciding with neap tides. This was going to allow My Way to push a little further out than we had been doing and fish a few marks in Holyhead Deep, a popular area with the potential to throw up some fantastic sport.

    A regular crowd from The Wirral were not to be disappointed on a recnet trip to Holyhead Deep, with Scottish International angler Mickey coming up trumps with a great pair of spurdogs.


    A 16lber on his first drop and a magnificent 20lb specimen towards the end of the Deeps anchor. From 200ft of water in 1.5knots of tide, this really did put up a great fight.

    Plenty of species showing up inshore, with small pollack and wrasse making far more regular appearance whilst on the drift around the rock marks and on the back of Holyhead’s famous Breakwater.

    The Deeps fishing continued for a few days, with the settled weather remaining over Anglesey and the fishing obliging our anglers. The main target remaining the big huss and big spurdogs, small tope also falling to the baits on the odd occasion.

    Middle of May and the weather was turning a little as the neap tides made way for larger and stronger tides. The good movement in the water added more smoothhound fun to our trips as the season slowly got underway.

    Local angler Peter Williams nailing himself a new personal best after landing our first 20lb smoothie of 2016.

    Our spurdog rigs are famed for the ability to continually land big spurdogs, over an over again. Tide in house with only the best products, the rigs also benefit from using wire on the snood lines.

    Spurdogs have small rows of razor sharp teeth, that can be seen clearly in the photograph.

    The last full week of May saw the return of My Ways annual hound competition, The Smoothhound Challenge, handsomely sponsored by Tackle Giants TronixPro

    Marking the start to our hounding season, last week saw the return of the annual Smoothhound Challenge aboard GO Angling - My Way Sea Fishing Trips, this year sponsored by tackle innovators Tronixpro.
    Conditions were great all week with calm seas greeting all that fished with us. The fishing wasn’t hectic, with packs of smoothhies failing to show. Instead a steady stream came to the boat, mainly lone hounds with the odd double or triple hook up through the week
    Up for grabs each day during our Smoothhound challenge a TronixFishing rod and reel combo, Envoy Multiplier reel and a 3 piece multitip, Iridium Berlangas 275 rod. All the angler had to do was catch the heaviest smoothhound of the day.
    We managed to land over 120 smoothies, many in the 6 to 10lb range, quite small by our own standards, but true to form with the cycle of smoothhound fishing and sizes. However the best during our week was caught by local rod Mark Cain, a whopping 24lb 2oz, just short of the current Welsh Record.
    On refelction, May was another good month aboard My Way
    Sailing regularly from Holyhead Marina, our reports and numerous photographs help tell the tale of our season and how fishing aboard My Way progresses through one year
    With July promising to be a great month once again, check our spaces here - boat or current individuals

  • 06/2016 Fishing Report by Sam Cumming on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)

    Jun 2016 by Sam Cumming

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    We have had some cracking fishing inshore of late which has helped to fill some of the gaps left by the bass trips we can't do until July. The bream have been of a really high quality so far with 3lb plus fish a daily occurrence rather than a rarity. I can't wait to see what size they go up to when they arrive on the wrecks in August. Keeping us busy over slack water have been the tope which have now arrived in numbers as the may bloom starts to clear in the water and the mackerel, hopefully, become more abundant. As I mentioned earlier we are holding off on doing bass fishing until July but it's been nice to see plenty of them out on the ground taking bream, ray and even tope baits. I think hopefully this is a good sign for when our season with them finally starts. Elsewhere across the channel we have been getting some nice sized turbot on the banks, last trip saw 4 doubles in 2 days, as well as good numbers of brill. The cod have been such a good size on the wrecks so far that I can't wait to start our long range Cherbourg trips next month to see what's lurking a bit further afield.
