    Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3

    The weather has been a little better and we have managed to get out to the deep wrecks for some Cod.

    There have been some nice big doubles showing and also some nice sized Pollack.

    We are hoping for some settled weather to get back to the deep water wrecks, so if you fancy a day out Cod fishing - the next few weeks should be good so give Dave a call.

  • 02/2013 Fishing Report by Lyle Stantiford on Supanova II (Weymouth, Dorset)

    Feb 2013 by Lyle Stantiford

    Report on-board Supanova II

    Well.... Supanova II is now happily bobbing round in Weymouth after completing sea trials. The home leg of the journey from Portsmouth to Weymouth saw gusting winds in excess of 35knts which is the best part of a gale and she handles absolutely amazingly. Proving what an outstanding platform she is for angling.

    The last couple of days has seen the maiden trips out which have both been nothing short of an absolute pleasure. The first trip was for a few friends and family that have helped along the way with Supanova II. The chosen specie was the hard fighting Pollack that inhabit the mid channel wrecks at this time of year.

    After a pleasant cruise at 17knts and a little over an hour and a half later we were at our first location and we were into fish from the off, this continued steadily all day with most fish in the 8-14lb range they really put up a good account of themselves. A couple of moves to look for the biggie also produced fish and on the penultimate drift Kevin Turner smashed his PB by over 6lb and landed this cracker of 20lb 2oz (pictured)! Well done Kev!

    THe second day was the first trip proper, the fishing was a little slow but a move another 10 miles further on made all the difference, the fishing was crazy and by half one the lads had enough fish for the table so they asked if we could get in early to watch the rugby. We took a steady plod home while crewman Ryan filleted down the fish all ready for the lads tables!

    Feb and March really are the best time to bag a big PB Pollack so if you fancy a day on the all new Supanova II get in touch!

    Thanks to all again for their continued support to the port.

    Tight lines,

    Lyle

    Report on-board Mistress

    We managed our first day at sea today for weeks due to the bad weather.
    With us just having had a set of northerlies, plenty of colour in the water and spring tides, we gave the uptiding a shot.

    The sport was steady all day with plenty of fish for the lads onboard. the fish were all in the 2lb to 6lb bracket. with around 40 codlings taken all day.

    The best rod took in excess of a dozen codlings losing a few too.
    The fish were favouring cart today but the lads fishing with worm and squid also took plenty of fish.

    Pictured are the lads with a few of their fish

    Report on-board Seren y Mor

    Weather again played a big part with the fishing, seeing us stuck in port for long parts of the month. When we were able to get out cod were hard to come by but those that were caught were of a good size, mostly double figure fish, whiting have thinned out but if you wanted to fish for them dabs are there in good numbers.

    The spring run of cod has started early this year and we are getting some nice fish to about 6lb. I am looking forward to some good pollock and turbot fishing soon, weather permitting and I am also planning some 2 day trips from June onwards to try for some 20lb+ turbot and cod. We are also going to target bass and conger. Please call for further details (07970899823).

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    What a day today turned out. Options were limited with forcast , decided to to attempt 5 mile mark, bit lumpy to say, knew we wouldnt have long there but we had to try. I did see the clouds of gulls behind the supply vessels churning sprats up i had this before which led to a bad day. On the 5 miler plenty of marks on the sounder but no fish came aboard at all. Had to move as the tide turned against wind becoming unfishable , headed with the other boats inshore grouped together as usual! Whiting all day few decent ones as pictured with Paaul here. No cod at all, believed all the boats were struggling. Was a non stop windy day, good banter as usual, thanks to lads for understanding the lack of cod, we moved 3 times in all,just too many bait fish,all whiting throwing up sprats. Thanks to Ian for organizing the lads, with, Alister,Paul,Dave,Scott,Chris,Vinny,Ross,Dave, and Shaun, appreciate you all coming out, hope we have better fish next time and weather!!!!!!! All the best men. Jon.
