    Well great day today weather was good for once, all our fish running inshore at the moment just waiting on the smoothounds to turn up in numbers then were offshore most of the time for the summer. Peeler crab the bait today for biggest hound of 8lb to James Taylor regular on High Flyer 2, also a personal best for James a thornback ray of 17lb 9oz also a boat record for us very pleased with that. Picture today obviously of that, well done mate. We should see it in coming issues of Sea Angler and Saltwater Boat angling too. Lots of spotty dogs as well bit of a pain but keeping us busy. Still got odd whitting coming in. Few other skate today pictures all on the gallery. Big thanks to everyone for today as last minute as we had a cancellation turned out a great day in all. Until next time tight lines everyone. Jon (High Flyer 2)

    Great weekend of weather for once, everybody catching spotty dogs keeping busy. Afraid the whitting still about. Had odd small smoothound not in here in numbers yet wont be long the water temp is slowly climbing. Nice to see the skate coming in all returned via one so pleased with everyones conservation efforts well done. Tides weak next week so bit of distance to the deeper water on tues will keep you posted on that. New colour waterproof stickers are in so if you want one for tackle box or to stick on your forehead let me know will send you how many you want out, we do appreciate it when we see them about it all helps. Summer dates are filling fast dont leave it till last minute especially if you want weekend date. will be starting few wrecks soon as water clears keep eye for that plus specialist tope soon as they arrive next month as a rule. until then tight lines everyone leaving you picture of Richard Deeks local regular on High Flyer 2 withb a well deserved roker.

    Todays trip can only be described as most miserable weekend of weather for this time of year north easterly raining most of the day with cold wind rather be at home or shopping was that bad! Despite that first timers on the High Flyer 2 was trip organised by local Paul Cole full marks for sticking the day and catching a few fish as well. Nice to see first of the small skate turning up along with a early smoothound and numerous spotty dogs throughout the day. Picture today of Roy with one of the thornbacks they will get better as season progresses i promise. Big thanks to everyone for the day i hope to see you at some point hopefully with better weather. Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)

    Flat calm seas this Saturday 21st April made a lovely change ! Headed out as tide was perfect to 5 mile bank in the hope of few skate armed with fresh herring and various bits and pieces but wasnt to be. Caught first of the season small starry smoothound pictured here early for us on this coast so had to snap it despite its size! Wont be long before they make a showing in numbers. Moved about six time today, basically whitting everywhere we went with few nice keepers. caught about 30 spotty dogs all returned with half dozen reasonable flatties, in all not brilliant but ok for this time of year. no roker for us today unfortunately not up here this week hopefully soon as reports of twenty miles away been starting to get them. Big thanks to the Luton lads looking forward to next trip.
    Cheers jon (High Flyer 2)

    Quick update on Sunday April 15th last trip. Was incredibly foggy down to 50ft visibility scuppered plans that we had in store. Ended up close to shore hiding up out of any traffic safe thing to do with constant AIS on which goes against the grain! Three vessels joined us so all fished close together in constant contact couldnt see them at all at times was a very damp day with everything soaked including me. First codling came in to Chris press ganged to have his picture took followed by few more small ones during the session. Few spotty dogs and whiting to add into the mix wasnt a brilliant day but in the big tides and rubbish weather was just nice to get out instead of going shopping! Big thanks to the lads for coming out were now looking forward to the first thornbacks arriving any day now, have all the frozen herring we need bagged up for next few months till mackerel arrive might try some night trips for them this year as they come in close to beaches at night will keep you all posted. Not looking to good for this weekend with easterlies forcast at moment i hope that changes soon. Until next trip tight lines people. Jon (High Flyer 2)

    Bringing us up to date this last bank holiday weekend saw few small coddling and odd doggy turning up. Beginning of April can be a funny start we hopefully should have seen last of the frosts now things starting to warm up. The weather has been so unpredictable with snow and now heavy rain all weekend! The spotty dogs will move in now followed by the skate so now freezing down fresh herring injected with various oils for next few months bait. we havent bothered mentioning bass as unfortunately no point in going to the marks it does cause trouble with certain people not understanding that we cant keep them. No charter vessel makes the rules we just have to abide by them so no point in giving the skipper a hard time its not his fault. Good idea to look back through our years of photos here on this site and you can gauge the times different species turn up the only difference this year is we could get a spring coddling run and i hope we do but has avoided us for last few years so fingers crossed. Picture here of new A4 flyer we put in the shops etc if you would like one just email address willpost out to you state laminated if you so wish. Hope to see you soon on High Flyer 2 it can only get better!!!! Jon

    Bringing us up to date we have seen a small influx of codling in recent week the downside now hit by 40mph plus easterly winds with everyone snowed in now! Hoping this cold snap will bring few more fish in on a normal year this month would be spring codling run follwed by the spotty dogs turning up mid to late March then April the start of skate when spring arrives. All we can do see what occurs the better times are just around the corner roll on the smoothounds! Website up to date for those wanting to plan any trips, this year we have been asked to do more tope specials so we will keep eye out for them mid june onwards rule of thumb. Lost out on night trips last year the wind just didnt play ball lets hope for a better season with the jet stream hopefully going the right way for once and all that cable work finished putting a spanner in the works i am looking forward to a better season. Hoping you can join us at some point.Picture of the new van, big thanks to Andrew from SignSmith for all his help. Next review soon as we get out until then tight lines everyone. Jon
