Mixed results in the fishing again this week. On Thursday we managed to get offshore for a change and the fishing was very good with 34 Bullhuss mostly low doubles, Tope again very good average size up to around 30lb ,a big Smoothound of around 12lb ,1 Spotted Ray and 2 Spurs plus Congers and Whiting.
On Friday we had the latest round of the Friday Species League. Unfortunately there was a very strong north westerly wind combined with small ebbing tide all day which made the fishing very difficult, still managed 15 species between the 2 boats including plenty of Bream and at last a few nice Plaice. Top 3 on each boat where
Piscary
1st Ray Barron 183
2nd Perry Dack 172
3rd Darren Phillips 158.
Ocean Runner
1st Steve Bachelor 162
2nd Steve Lodge 137
3rd Alan Bird 100
Next it was the Kings Arms Southampton, after such a good day on Friday they decided to venture offshore, unfortunately the north east wind and stronger tides made it difficult fishing, again they did catch a few but not as good as Friday ended up with 12 Species. Top in the points were
Ed Taylor 206
Paul Hollyoake 177
Richard Dicky Day 155.
Just like to remind all match anglers that if you intend fishing the Poole species hunt please get your entries in as soon as possible.

Now the homework is done, time to put the anglers on the fish...
Another night time break in the winds, taking some local rods out to the ray grounds.
Stacks of small eyed rays, a few blonde rays, a spotted ray, a stack of whiting (even enough left for me after the trip) and a few hard fighting congers too. Superb fun in 50 feet of water! View Boats Page

A rare play day for relief skipper kev!
Joined by the boss we headed out to pinpoint where the rays are - we've had loads of ray on the evening trips this season but only 2-3 per trip, they must be holding up somewhere...
Within minutes of dropping the lines in the rays were feeding, and feeding hard. With only the two of us onboard it was manic! We lost count at 26 rays, mainly small eyed up to 12.75lb but a few blondes to 14lb there too.
In just 2 hours of fishing we smashed through 4 packs of sandeel, 3 boxes of squid and a pack on anchovy. When the baits are only big enough for 3/0 hooks, that a lot of fish!!!
An awesome afternoon out with the Mrs and the homework done for the charters. View Boats Page

The heavens opened!
Wow what a down pour! So much rain I thought we saw the Ark go by at one point.
Making the most of the break in the winds we headed out for some huss and congers before coming back under the cliff to top up on some whiting.
The huss played ball, dozens to mid doubles and a good stamp of eels into the late 20's. Finished off with a few buckets of 1-8 to 2-12 whiting.
An awesome way to spend a few hours of an evening. View Boats Page

With the onslaught of high winds, named storms, driving rain it is nice to know we have some entertaining fishing available on part day or evening trips! These run throughout the year and have the protection of Plymouth Sound to look after us.
Here we have members of the Security team at local hospital, Derriford, and their friends & family.
Action all through the night with spotted ray, conger, doggies, and whiting. �� View Boats Page
