Another fine day with Jon onboard the High Flyer, set off a bit later than normal due to SW winds and a flooding tide, so set sail at 10:00 and headed out off Corton, good sea colour, and with a little chop. Started to see some Whiting come onboard, the bigger ones taking either Black Lug with squid or mackeral on size 4/0 or 5/0 hooks. Regular supply of tea and coffee which is always welcome. Did move a few times in search of them codling. Thanks again Jon, see you again very soon.

Skippers Reponse: Thanks James, only a few codling this weekend still too warm i reckon. Thank god for whiting! Cheers mate.

My first trip out with Jon. Have to say the fishing wasn't great but that is hardly the skippers fault. He spent a lot of time during the day trying to find us fish. I hooked a tope first thing but sadly lost it as Jon was about to haul it aboard, unfortunately the fishing died after that. Nevertheless a great day with a knowledgable skipper. Cheers Jon. I will be back, Steve

Skippers Reponse: Hi Steve, pity we lost that one, thats fishing saving you another one though! Hard day after that even the mackerel were being evasive! Appreciate you coming out fingers crossed for next time.

Great day, tidy boat and a top skipper!

Skippers Reponse: Thanks Andrew,we try hard,nice of you to say so. Cheers bud. Jon.

Unforgettable day out, was planning my next trip on the way in. thanks Jon

Skippers Reponse: Nice one Paul, be glad to be of service. Cheers. Jon.

Absolutely first class day! Anglers all, and kayak anglers at that so used to fishing hard and often but this was different - way further out than normal (14 miles), deeper than normals (113ft), for different and larger fish than normal (tope) and different tactics than normal (jigging wrecks for cod). Jon often gives us a wave in passing and checks we're okay when we're out so when it came to taking us out he layed on one hell of a fine treat by taking us to new and unlikely (for us) territory and boy did he produce the goods. Top tip: LISTEN TO YOUR SKIPPER! We all learnt a lot of good stuff today. Good coffee, bisciuts, chocolate bars, advice, tackle, banter; we saw loads of porpoises, had a comfortable and spacious boat to fish from with good facilities and most of all fish (dream fish for some!). Thank you Jon, we'll see you for the cod if not before!

Top skipper. Jon really knows his stuff and today he instructed, encouraged and did everything to make our day a success. A top days fishing.

Skippers Reponse: Thank you Nigel appreciate your comments, not a bad day in all, hope your first time was memorable with your tope. All the best. Jon.

Outstanding day even though tide did us no favours.

Skippers Reponse: Thank you Andy, first time on the Flyer glad you enjoyed it, strong old tide mate least we got a few. Look forward to seeing you next month. Appreciate you taking time to add the review. Jon.

Great day out on the water, big tides put the mackerel off but we got loads of variety on the species front. Wont mention my world record (smallest) pouting! Wind swung round to SE which killed the sport dead. As always Jon was not afraid to up anchor and move to get us the best fishing possible. Great day, looking forward to the next trip.

Skippers Reponse: Thanks Paul, cant believe the pouting! And where they were, this year has been crazy! Appreciate you coming out especially in our fine british weather!!! Look forward to the next time. Jon.

oustanding fishing trip.
