Report on-board Sea Otter 2
After my week away in Spain i was keen to get back at it my lads for Sunday were hot on the phone was the trip on YES was the answer I told the lads get armed with squid and blacks the deadly cod combination .
We set sail at 8 and in 10 minuites flat the lines were over the side and bang the rods were bouncing the fishing was good plenty of cod coming aboard nothing massive but the lads finished with around 90 cod upto 6-7 lb the best lad onboard couldn't go wrong he find he'd up with around 20 codf himself the Uptiding has been excellent this winter and is still fishing very well .
This man couldn't go wrong .

Report on-board Vanishing Point-2
Well the weather was fair on Saturday and Sunday.
Fishing was still a bit difficult but we did manage a fair number of Rays, photo of just one caught yesterday.
Glad to say the biblical amounts of dog fish were no where to be seen, I think we only caught about 4 the whole weekend..!! just a few Codling came out, and most boat did very much the same..!
So to summarise... still tough out there, and room for improvement, but with the water temperature now down to 7 degrees it's heading in the right direction...!!!
Tight lines everyone...!!! View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Lyle Stantiford
on Supanova II (Weymouth, Dorset)
Jan 2016 by Lyle Stantiford
Report on-board Supanova II
************** Potential New British Record Undulate Ray******************
This beautiful Undulate Ray was landed by Southampton angler and Supanova regular, Steve Juggins. Steve believe it or not was fishing for whiting at the time when the big Ray landed on his bait and took off. It was apparent as soon as I landed it that it was a big fish. Steve wanted to ensure the fish remained alive and if there was any risk to the fish he wanted it returned which is what angling is all about. We managed to keep the fish quite happily for the remainder of the day and was weighed on official scales back on land in Weymouth at a massive 22lb 13.4oz.
According to the record lists, this beats the record by over 1lb 8oz. After a brief time for weighing we returned the fish back to the boat where we steamed out to where she was landed and returned strongly to fight another day.
Cracking fish, Well done Steve! Amazing start to 2016.
Also plenty of congers were landed and returned along with additional undulate, Blonde, Spotted and Thornback rays, smoothounds, whiting and pouts and doggies.
Sundays trip was the first look mid channel for the Pollack. A slow start but a few moves found a nice few fish with everyone getting amongst them and the first couple of Ling for the season proves a great sign.
Great to be back out and amongst some more Weymouth quality.

Fishing Report by Ian Dale
on Kelley's Hero Charters (Gosport, Hampshire)
Jan 2016 by Ian Dale
Report on-board Kelley's Hero Charters
So first of all i would like to say Happy New Year to you all and i would like to apologise for the lack of posts and updates throughout 2015.
Here’s what happened on Kelley’s Hero II during 2015……….
To start the year we had a very busy wrecking season with some very nice Pollock to 19lb, cod to 21lb, and bass to 10lb. It was one of the best wrecking seasons for cod that we have had for a good few years now, with over a hundred cod being caught on most days and only a few taken for the table. This did mean that it wasn’t as easy to get to the Pollock however i don’t think anyone grumbled due to the amount of cod coming aboard. Lets hope 2016’s wrecking season is as productive.
Once we reached August and the wrecking started to slow down a bit, we were looking for more of a variety on our day trips. What we started with was inshore fishing for Plaice with a little bit of drifting for bass when the tide allowed. These trips proved very popular with the biggest plaice coming aboard weighing over 3lb, and a lot of them, as well as many bass between 3lb and 9lb. We did have a nice surprise run of Brill also with the biggest weighing 6lb. There may have only been one of these trips cancelled due to the run of nice weather we managed to get in August.
In September, we decided to try something new for Kelley’s Hero and head out Sole fishing in the evenings. The first trip we managed to boat 7 Sole, and 11 red mullet. This wasn’t bad for a first trip with the red mullet being a personal best to every angler and also the boat record. Don’t worry though, if you are interested in catching either of these, we will be doing this trips again this year.
The we started with our winter cod season, with our first trip heading out on 9th October. We had 3 cod on this trip which was nice to see, we also landed rays, gurnard and the biggest mackerel of the year which was also a new club record. Over the rest of the month we had an average of 4 cod per trip, weighing between 2lb and 15lb. The whiting that were caught were all a very nice size, unlike the year before.
November saw us cancelling almost every trip and we only managed to get out 5 times, but due to the weather on a few of these we were forced to fish The Solent. The Solent produced some nice healthy cod and a steady flow of whiting along with the normal species of rays, conger and dogfish.
Unfortunately December was even worse than November meaning that we only got 2 day trips and 1 evening trip in. All three trips produced 2-3 cod per trip along with some nice small eyed rays, undulate rays and some chunky congers.
One last thing before I go……
The new Bass law: For those of you who are not aware, for the first 6 months of 2016 there is a 100% catch and release for all recreational bass fisherman. And in the second half of the year there is a 1 fish bag limit per angler. We do hope this won’t affect our customers and that you will still be interested in coming fishing on Kelley’s Hero, especially after the success of the last years plaice/bass trips. Lets turn this situation into a positive and lets add more variety to our trips. Please feel free to get in touch if you would like any more information.
Until then….
Tight Lines..
