Just had my first wrecking trip (ever) onboard Supanova. Just wanted to say Lyle was an excellant skipper and instructor not just for me but everyone onboard. Caught my first ever cod (in fact 4 off 6/7lbs) plus 3 Pollock only slightly smaller.Only disapointment was having to reel in and come in at the end of the day.
Thanks Lyle -

Summer...................... What Summer!!!!!!!!!!
Cancelled trips have ruled the diary of late unfortunately, with the last two days a world apart!
yesterday saw Weymouth well and truly drowned and today basked in sunshine. Crazy eh!!!!!
Down to the fishing....... the inshore fishing has been growing from strength to strength with Plaice fishing continuing to prove astonishing. Many many fish have been landed over 4lb and most days feature fish between 5-6lb. Where else can you experience Plaice fishing like it?!
The shambles continues to produce decent turbot and increasing numbers of Brill, bream numbers begin to improve at anchor along with Gurnards, Undulate Rays, conger, huss and decent Tope to 50lb+.
Cod have proved an added bonus on inshore trips on the ledges around Portland!
The wreck fishing seems to be tailing off slightly now but there are still some decent Cod and Pollack to be had.
The next month see's the olympic sailing events descend on Weymouth but the fishing for many will continue as normal.
Yet again thanks to all for continued support to the Weymouth fleet.

Busy Busy from Weymouth at the moment.
Plaice fishing has been hectic with one day producing 14 fish over 4lb between 5 anglers!
Just finished a three day trip with some smashing lads from Essex who really hit it off with the variety of Weymouth's inshore fishing, their species count for the 3 days was pretty impressive. Plaice to 6lb, Turbot to 8lb, Brill to 5lb, Cod to 15lb, Bass to 6lb, Pollack, Blonde Ray, Gurnard, Pout, Dogfish, Bream, Mackerel.
All caught within 2 miles of each other!
Wrecking over the last few weeks has continued to impress, this sport should continue for 2-3 weeks before it starts to slow slightly and the inshore fishing will continue to get better and better with a bit of luck.
Thanks to all for keeping us happy skippers in Weymouth busy!
Some happy news from me is that Supanova 2 will start being built in the next month or so, she will be an 11m BWSeacat with an island wheelhouse giving you masses of deck space to enjoy.
Keep your eyes peeled for pics coming soon! Thanks to all, the new boat wouldn't be possible without your custom and Support.
Pictured is Ed avery with one of the smashing plaice coming out lately.
Tight lines one and all,

Hi All,
At the time of writing the weather is pretty pants! after all what do you expect for June these days!
Fishing of late has been hectic, with plenty of Cod to 20lb+ on the wrecks with a few Pollack and odd ling and Bass giving a bit of variety.
Inshore fishing continues to impress with Cod to 22lb, Plaice to 6lb and double figure Turbot keeping everyone on their toes when out and about.
Bream numbers are beginning to thin on the marks to the east but another month should see them feeding up on the Portland Marks. Bass fishing locally seems to be making a start with the commercial boats reporting good catches so it may mean we are in for an early start on them fingers crossed.
Hope Weymouth continues to offer you anglers the sport you deserve and thanks once again for supporting the port.
tight lines,

Just returned from the first trip to the channel Islands. Fantastic fishing, great weather and a great bunch of lads made it a lovely week.
Plenty of TUrbot and some lovely Pollack and Cod on the way home.
Returned to some north east breeze so the weekends trips through up some nice bream so hopefully things continue in what has proved to be a fantastic season from Weymouth so far.
Thanks to all that continue to make Weymouth what it is.
Tight lines! -

Well what a bleak couple of weeks it has been with the weather!! We did manage to scrape a day earlier this week where yet again the Turbot fishing proved magical with 3 of the 5 lads on board catching PB's. Firstly Ian Robson bagged a PB of 9lb 8oz, Ian has been fishing since my very first season in action in Weymouth and has been a constant pleasure to have on board and i'm chuffed that he was rewarded with a lovely fish.
Second to break his PB was sparrow, sparrow is fairly new to flatfish fishing and only started venturing out this year but already he has managed to land Brill to 6lb, Plaice to 4lb and now a cracking Turbot of 12lb.
Last but no means least was Paul Norman form Essex, some of you may recognise Paul from his own Charter Boat TRYA running out of Walton on the Naze. Paul managed to land a cracker of 14lb 8oz (pictured) but unfortunately lost a better fish that I can honestly say may have broken the boat record of 22lb 4oz but unfortunately it wasn't to be!
Never mind back to the decorating for me now!
Looks good for friday and Saturday for a bit of wrecking for the Cod so fingers crossed! Due off on the first run to the channel islands next week so fingers crossed the weather lets us.
Once again many thanks to all who continue to venture to Weymouth and support the port. Tight lines if you are soon to be wetting a line.

What a Mont March proved to be both with weather and fishing!
The wrecking continued to be brilliant with good catches of Pollack with the odd Cod thrown in. The last few days even showed some Ling which was nice to see.
The last moths inshore fishing has been mind blowing, with Turbot catches out of this world with fish to 30lb coming form the Shambles it has proved a great draw with anglers coming from all over Europe hoping to bump in to a biggy! Remember ladies and gents the Flatfish grounds are ONLY 40 MINS FROM WEYMOUTH, Where else in the world can you get such good flatty fishing so close to port?
There has also been a couple of early Brill turning up, Pictured is Brian Croft with the biggest Brill I have ever seen and the biggest Brill from the Shambles for a number of years. This monster banged the scales round to a whopping 11lb 2oz!!! And easily wins fish of the month this month.
April should see continued good flat fish fishing with Plaice a prominent feature along with hopefully some early Bream. The wrecks should see continued Sport with Cod and Ling numbers increasing.
Once again thanks to all for Coming to Weymouth and Choosing Supanova! -

Well what a month February turned out to be for Pollack fishing.
The fishing on nearly every trip was fantastic with the stamp of fish much improved on the last couple of years.
Many people breaking their personal bests which after all is what angling is about isn't it??
The arrival of the sand eels now should see catches continue if not improve further, also the odd ling and cod have made a nice appearance and as March progresses we would hope that ling numbers improve.
Inshore fishing has begun with the first showings of Plaice and Turbot leading us to believe that March and April should see us in for some frantic action in Weymouth.
Fish of the month goes to dedicated angler Trad Casey of Weymouth who landed this cracking Pollack of 20lb 4oz on his first wrecking trip!!!
Thanks to all who braved the cold this month and continue to offer their custom to Supanova and the rest of the Weymouth fleet!!
