Report on-board Seabreez3
What a start to the 1st December!
With the Cod showing in plentiful numbers and the boats from Brighton Marina reporting some good catches of cod.Whiting etc
Mick Pullens crew whilst fishing on Seabreeze3 on the 1st December caught some lovely cod with Warren Wood landing two of his personal best one of 23lb 8oz,and 22lb 8oz and Jane Pullen landed an 8lb cod along with a large amount of the dreaded whiting.
On the Sunday 2nd December, Andy crew from London also caught some excellent cod, with Haydn Watkins landing his personal best of 25lb cod, caught on a bait of cuttlefish and squid on a panel rig. Soon followed by Steve Burgoyne landing a cod of 15lb on squid and cuttlefish also. Next it was Andy Wiles turn with a fine cod of 19lb. After a short break Andy then caught another one, not so big this time but a respectable size. Then it was Geordie Staines turn with a good size cod of 16lb.
All I can say guys is sit there with a big bait of cuttlefish and squid and don't get impatient, that's all you need to do to catch them
We still have some spaces left over the Christmas and New Year season, For Cod fishing visit www.Seabreeze3.co.uk Or give me a call on.(Tel/01273 585372) We are now taking bookings for 2013
Tight lines!Guy's
Merry Christmas

Report on-board Amino
ABOUT BL**DY TIME!!! Seems like a few Cod have FINALLY turned up.....:-)
Despite strong gusts within the forecast for today,(whats new??!) Mick and Mitch decided to take the gamble and we ventured out, staying inshore to get some shelter.
Despite choppy conditions the chaps did well and we ended up landing around 20 Cod, 12 keepers, 2 fish of 8lb and a couple around 6 with the rest between 2 and 3lb.
What was really interesting was that we only had 3 Whiting all day and only 2 Dogfish so maybe the Cod have now properly turned up and are getting to the baits first....we live in hope!
Get well soon Dave, hope you can be back and fishing with Mick and Mitch again.
Here's Mick with his two best fish of the day..... View Boats Page

on Lady Grace (Brightlingsea, Essex)

Report on-board Lady Grace
Another lovely day out of the water. Started today off with a bird watching trip this morning, saw lots of dunlin, blacktailed and bartailed Godwits, Curlew, Redshank and loads of Grebe and dabchicks out on the water too. Then we stumbled across an extremely tame or maybe just a very photogenic Cormorant that wasn't phased by use circling the mooring it was perched on. This afternoon I headed out with Robbie and his Step son Michael who hadn't been fishing before and at 11yrs old he was dying to give it ago. We anchored up and within 10 minutes Robbie had a decent fish on, unfortunately he was too keen and struck too early so lost it. Michael started catching his first whiting and then just after high water he hooked into his first codling. He is a quick learner, he soon got yhe hang of it and left his step dad on zero cod for the rest of the afternoon until on that very last cast when Robbie reeled his last rod in and caught a codling too. He was pleased he'd levelled with Michael. Although Michaels was bigger and he had caught a lovely whiting for his tea too! An enjoyable day had by all.

Report on-board High Flyer 2
Today started with the after affects of strong northerly, bit lumpy ,didnt help when the wind picked up! The lads done well being bashed about a bit,to their credit good spirits all round. The whiting made a show for us from the start, along with a few flatties, went to the only place fishable today up the Roads ,lowestoft end. Had a move as slack approached due to it becoming unfishable , tucked out the way back towards Yarmouth in a little hole i know,where we caught plenty more whiting and some cracking flatties size wise for this time of year. No cod again, 14 rods out and all the baits,still need it to be colder. Big thanks to Richard for organizing and all the Network Rail lads,Chris,Shaun,Andy,Mick,Andy,Mark,Stewart, and first time on High Flyer Tony, hope to see you guys soon, thanks for sticking the day out. All the best. Jon.

Fishing Report by Rich Ward
on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

Report on-board Shy-Torque III
Sadly, with cold and very fresh Northerley's blowing this week we haven't managed to get to sea this last week.
Hoping for some better weather next week as the tides are falling really nice for us and there are some big cod out there too.
We will sail with a minimum of 4 anglers through the week during the winter time. You DON'T have to book the full boat.
With the spawning season being just around the corner ( December, January, February ) I am expecting to see some more really good size cod from now and in to next year, after a good number of big cod just recently.
The British record for cod does stand from Whitby at over 58lbs !!
The chances of one bigger than that maybe slim, but your chances of something very big are certainly enhanced during the spawning time.
Cod like the one in this picture aren't beyond the realms of possibility on the Shy-Torque if we can get to the marks offshore.
Ken Buckingham form Nottingham is pictured with the Shy-Torques' biggest cod to press at just over 45lbs
Tight lines!

Fishing Report by David Hancock
on Excel 2 (Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire)
28 Nov 2012 by David Hancock
Report on-board Excel 2
The Cod fishing season has been great so far with plenty of double figure fish and a new PB for Gary from Essex with a cracker of 21 lb 8 oz (see pic), well done !
All that`s needed bait wise is Cuttle and Squid for the deeper water and Lugworm for the codling inshore.
December will throw up some huge lunkers as the Cod feast on the Herring in the water.
There`s still plenty of Skate about and more will be moving inshore over the next month or so, along with Bass and whiting.
Remember, 4 or more on a weekday and I`ll go !
Weekend costs are the same as weekdays, the price of diesel don`t change !!
Because we steam Hard and Fast you get more fishing time at the best marks.
Dave.

Report on-board High Flyer 2
Small break in the weather, the forcasters not sure due to the various lows hanging around, decided to go as we always best off trying our luck. Kept inshore due to the tide ebbing our best chances to join the others down in the Roads. Not my favourite place but it does produce when were still waiting for tthe cod to appear in numbers. Started straight away again with those whiting , few flatties, wind ever increasing unfortunately turning SE,our worst wind. Made the best of the day ,moved up further south for the last of the slack,reports of a few cod over the vhf,not for us,just loads of the usual stuff. Thanks to James for organizing everyone, along with Ben,Steph,Alex,Mike,Andy,Lee,David,Simon and Darren,first timers on the Flyer,was much appreciated men,think we made the best of a bad day,was last boat home before the weather turned, full marks to you all. Hope to see you all for a good cod bashing when there in properly! All the best. Jon.
