These individuals have been amazing mentors with their boundless knowledge and support through Carl's crewing career. Carl is honoured to call them great friends and thanks them endlessly for their trust, support & wisdom throughout and now in taking this next step in his fishing career. The last 7 years working with alongside them has been life changing to say the least.

Daniel Jackson (18/08/2020)
Fantastic couple of days out on the Sea Otter 2. Plenty of cod coming aboard both days and managed a new PB with a cod just under 15lbs. Paul kept us moving around regularly to keep us catching and deck hand Dan helped out with tangles and filleting all the fish for the whole boat. Great skipper with with Fantastic knowledge. Highly recommended and definitely back for the winter festival. Cheers
Skippers Reponse: Thanks Daniel glad you lads enjoyed your 2 days fingers crossed for a big one in winter uptiding competition.

Skippers Reponse: Thanks Scott glad you enjoyed your day mate see you next time .��������

Had a great day out on Sea Otter 2 yesterday catching 8 different species including Cod,Pollock,Coal Fish,Wrasse,Ling,Dab Mackerel and a dab.Paul Gave his honest opinion about fishing at anchor and using Bait as opposed to the usual summer tactics of using Plastics and shads as the fish aren’t really on the recks now as the scallop dredgers have made sure of that so the majority of the better fishing is right under the cliffs...Tactics change day to day so please listen to your skipper the previous day before your trip...10/10 Paul.Thank you
Skippers Reponse: Yes Paul a lovely day all round the scallop dredging is not helping still around 80 cod taken including all those other species as well see you next time Paul .

Another belting trip on Sea Otter my friend les I fish with couldn't make it so was on my own but I'm a regular so it wasn't long till I was have a laugh with the boy . First day of the festival and it was a bad forcast for the morning but good late morning and rest of the day so off we went I was OK first hour and a half then the dreaded Sea sickness after a couple of heaves I was OK but drained and sat down . I'd been down 20 mins then Paul was stood at my side saying " come on Steve lad " he baited my hook and lobbed it in and handed me the rod straight away fish on he just has the magic touch I fished out the rest of the day and manged a nice bag of fillets . Thanks again to Paul and John deck hand for all your help much appreciated.

Not long to go now till blast off the fishing should be good plenty of cod sat there waiting.A few spots left in April so if it’s cod you want look no further then Sea-Otter 2 out catch rates are second to non .
