had a crackin day out today. flat calm seas warm and sunny.cleared the tyne peirs for 7.45am. headed to the first wreck in hope of mackrel, [normally in by now but slightly late this season]. imediaterly a couple of rods double over into fish. however it was obvious from the bend and pulling motion these were bigger than macrkel, sure enougth two plump cod at 3 and 4 pounds lay on the deck. perfect white bellied cod. [nice clesn run cod]
another pass and another couple of simalar cod.then one lone mackrel. the first this season. and as it happens the only mackrel of the day. set off to the next wreck. again a fish or two almost every drift with cod and ling to about 7lbs.
a steady stream of fish coming over the gunnel.this pattern of fishing continued as we worked our way steaderly offshore. with a cod of 14.5lbs coming aboard several ling into double figures. then over the slack water a lovely ling of 16.5lbs followed quickly by a pollack of 10lbs both to the same lucky angler. all in all a crackin day afloat just the 1.5 hours steam home and to do it all again tommorrow are well?? -

eventually after a very blowy couple of weeks, sunday was a lovely day. flat calm seas awaited us.went around about 8 wrecks a few fish off each wreck. [the wrecks and hard ground actually fished better when the wind was howling].
the slack water period proved to be the best time with several reasonable ling coming aboard over this period. by now the sun was out and the teperatures picked up and it was turning into a hot flat day with the sea turning into a sheet of glass a couple of cod just on the double figure mark also put in an apperance. before we knew it the day had flown over and it was time to steam home. approxamterly 1 and a half hours home.a little bit of video was made of the day if you wish to see it please click link to our website then link to videos -

out monday bank holiday.a thick carpet of fog awaited us, however it wasnt long before the sun broke out giving us a lovely day with a flat calm sea.first wreck we visted first drift 3 rods immediaterly bent over producing 2 cod and a ling all in the 4-5 lbs bracket. this set the tone for most of the day with all wrecks producing fish.steadily working or way offshore. the fishing just got better. with one wreck resulting in eight rods all bending into fish together.the stamp of fish slowly increased as well. with some nice ling and cod just into double figures.
an unusual addition was about 10 -12 herrig being caught. these we used for bait producing several decent ling. as it is still 3-4 weeks before we expect the arrival of the mackrel. then the wreck fishing will really kick in.
all in all a cracking day afloat with about 50-60 nice fish being caught -

boat was out in mid january.during a lull in the fairly un settled weather we have been experiencing lately. although a fairly breezy and chilly day fishing was reasonable with 46 fish being taken with cod to 9lbs and ling to 10.5lbs
with seven rods fishing. the bulk of the fish getting caught late afternoon
