    Report on-board Sea Otter 2

    A break in the weather yesterday allowed us to hit the wrecks small tides and the water clearing it was a perfect combination to get right among the cod .
    I told the lads the game plan plenty of squid and don't forget the shads bait is usually best at this time of year but shads can also be deadly and the lads got really nice treat the fishing was very steady around 100 cod onboard at the end of the day my good friend rob managed well over 20 cod he managed the biggist just under 10 lb there was also pollock and some lings .

    Here are the lads with just a few of there fish .

    Report on-board Mistress Linda / San Gina3

    Feb 2016
    As we are approaching spring the sun is starting to get some warmth in it's rays, the fishing through Feb was good on the days you could get to sea with lots of congers, small whiting, Rays and some good size Spurdogs. Check out the latest video posted and see if you star in it, it is not about the biggest fish caught more about the enjoyment and pleasures of fishing.

  • 03/03/2016 Fishing Report by Rich Cope on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    3 Mar 2016 by Rich Cope

    Report on-board Mistress

    With a very small window in the weather today here at Whitby, we managed to get a team of 5 anglers together with a view to hitting the inshore wrecks.

    As forecast it was a shabby start this morning, with the cruise out to the wrecks steady. We tried a few different marks to break the journey up on the way out to one of my favourite early season wrecks.
    We arrived at around 10am and started hitting the fish steady away 3 to 4 a drift, although we tried shads but they were preferring the squid baits offered on paternoster rigs.

    The fishing remained steady until the turn of the tide and went off a bit then. But not before we’d taken a good number of fish for our anglers.

    We took mainly Cod but a good few Lings came aboard too, the biggest of both falling to Mistress regular Martin Hoole, his biggest Cod would of been in the 5-6lb region and Ling around 8lb.

    We Finished up with around 60 fish for the day, the two best anglers boating 16-18 fish apiece. Personally I fished Like a lettuce and boated 7, 3 of which were milting as I pulled them from the sea so returned them immediately, The other lads also returned a good number of fish to fight another day.

    Prospects for the up and coming season are certainly looking good, as the water clears further and the fish turn more to feeding rather than spawning we should see an increase in both numbers and size of fish.

    The lures will come into their own too as the water clears, people using 4” & 6” sidewinder sandeels usually do well, I find early season White and also green fish very well.
    Sometimes a pirk can outfish the shads if the clarity isnt quite right and will often find out the better fish.

    Martin at Whitby Angling Supplies stocks an extensive range of top quality tackle and lures along with all other terminal gear and baits at very competitive prices, so will be able to sort you out for a great days sea fishing aboard Mistress

    So, if you fancy a crack at the Wrecking, We still have some good tides available through out the year along with some some decent tides in our WCSA angling festivals.

  • 02/03/2016 Fishing Report by Ryan Casey on Meerkat (Weymouth, Dorset)

    2 Mar 2016 by Ryan Casey

    Report on-board Meerkat

    JANUARY/ FEBRUARY

    Well what a horrible Winter we have been having with all of these constant strong winds, which are forcing the Weymouth charter fleet to stay in the harbour most of the time. However when the weather has been nice enough for us to get out, the fishing hasn't been disappointing us. The wrecks are fishing pretty steady with quite a lot of double figure Pollock coming out. The biggest on Meerkat so far 17lb 8oz (pictured here) and the biggest in the fleet 19lb 8oz but there is still plenty of time for someone to get that magical 20lb.

    INSHORE

    The inshore anchor marks are fishing just as well with up to 12 species coming up in the same spot. The last few weeks have shown some amazing specimen fish caught from one of our local marks. Some are listed below

    Conger Eels to 60lb
    Spur Dogs to 15lb
    Undulated Rays to 17lb
    Thornback Rays to 14lb
    Blonde Rays to 34lb
    Also among all these bigger fish we have been catching quite a few nice tabled size Whiting.

    I have also heard/ seen that the first signs of Turbot are starting to show on the famous Shambles Bank, so hopefully it won't be too long before we start seeing a few more.

    If you fancy a trip out on Meerkat or have any questions you would like to ask, please feel free to contact me 07776182782 or email me on ryancasey1@hotmail.com

    Hope to see you all soon.
