    Report on-board Size Matters

    We managed to get out yesterday for the first charter of the season from Plymouth,
    it was my first day on the new job. It was like being back in school, learning how to fish new marks and getting to know the new boat. There was a group of local lads onboard so the expectations where high, as there was a few fish about according to the lads. As we got to the first mark we where on the last of the ebb tide we only managed a few whiting and pouting to 2lb. Then we moved to another mark, the lads tried some bait but again just whiting and pouting. We moved for the 3rd time, then we hit a few pollack to 10lb. Just as we set up the second drift a pod of dolphins started circling the boat, great to watch but they don't help the fishing. Could this first day get any worse, so off we went again, Then finally we hit a good shoal of fish. The lads where kept very busy till the end of the day, 60+ fish kept.
    Ling to 23lb 8oz and Pollack to 15lb 8oz, all the lads onboard enjoyed the day and said to me they would like this type of catch on there next trip. I said if only my job was that easy ha ha.
    If you fancy a trip out of Plymouth just give me a call.
    Here is a list of the available dates in March.
    Tuesday 22nd,
    Wednesday 23rd,
    Thursday 24th,
    I have more dates available in April and May.

    Cheers

  • 16/03/2016 Fishing Report by Sam Cumming on Silver Spray II (Poole, Dorset)

    16 Mar 2016 by Sam Cumming

    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    Although it might still be pretty cold out at sea most days it's certainly starting to seem like the start of spring. It's always nice to see the dolphins around in the channel when the sprats start to move in on the wrecks. On our first wreck trip a couple of weeks ago a large pod of dolphins turned up at the mark we were fishing and we had to move as the pollock went right off the feed due to the dolphins chasing the sprats about. This was just a small speed bump on our first wreck trip of the year and we managed plenty of fat spring pollock well up into the double figures. Elsewhere we are still getting the best fishing I've seen in a long time on the banks for rays and spurdogs. This should continue into April before the temperature starts to rise slightly and the spurs disappear for another year. Our biggest to date this season is 25lb 4oz but unfortunately it was not overly keen on having its photo taken so we weighed and released her quickly. This Monday will see our first trip down to target the turbot and brill of this year and wednesday will be our first crack at the plaice with the light gear.

  • 18/03/2016 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    18 Mar 2016 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    Not quite the amounts of cod we've been experiencing of late for the lads today.

    With a slightly smaller mixed crew on board today, we had to manage with a day working the more local marks.

    Never the less we worked as hard as ever and the lads managed a combined total of around 45 fish.

    A very enjoyable day out for us all. Just wishing it was a bit warmer!!!!

    Just for the record lads and lasses, if you're ever in either of the cafe's here in Whitby and overhear or speak to anyone who might suggest that the sea conditions aren't favorable before the boat sails, please let me know who you have been speaking to. Some of today's lads were told exactly that and they couldn't have been told anything further from the truth. Conditions were fine for fishing. Egg on face springs to mind !!!

    Cheers and tight lines as ever.

    Rich.
