    Report on-board Supanova II

    Hi All,

    October was a pretty decent month weather wise, decent numbers and probably the best stamp of Bream I have seen for quite a few years. It was all about the spring tides that's for sure. Inshore tight to Chesil beach say some decent catches of Plaice although not big fish that we are used to they gave a good account of themselves on light tackle. Bass catches on the big tides were somewhat patchy but some decent fish around if you were lucky to land on them. A wrecking trip towards the end of October accounted for decent numbers of Cod which for us here in Weymouth is unheard of. Some decent Pollack also featured so this is a fantastic sign for the first designated Pollack trips in December and January. Small tides inshore have allowed us to get on some cracking Blonde Rays with up to 30 fish a trip all returned. Best fish was around 25lb with some anglers landing up to a dozen fish a trip. Really good sport. Fantastic results from the Shambles during October and into November of Brill and Turbot with up to 15 fish a session which is a marked improvement on last year.

    November has been battered with west-southwest Gales which although unwelcome has been a nice change to the relentless easterly winds we have had this year. So only a handful of trips have featured with once again Blonde Rays prominent on small tides, Bass, Whiting and Turbot and Brill have proved plentiful on most recent trips. A few quick stops for squid on the way in has been great fun with plenty of laughs and plenty of ink being squirted around!

    As the season winds down it's time to begin to reflect on another busy season here in Weymouth and thank you all once again for your continued support to the top port in the UK. We all thank you very much.

    Between Christmas and New Year I will be running some Pollack trips out to the wrecks, so if you need to get away and get some fresh air give me a call/text 07976876667. Trips will be running on 27th/28th/29th December.

    Tight Lines,

    Lyle
