    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Been a bit slack on the reports due to mackerel bashing. Was asked for a tope session by Mark ( Snapper) local kayak nutter who organised everybody today ,thank you by the way Mark! Started out on the Ridges up North with a lovely little turbot from Matthew , had a quick move to deeper water as tide eased for our biggest tope of the day from Gary 25lb,nice fish. Few mackerel came in with the weavers so decided at slack to hit a favourite wreck of mine on the 9 mile mark. All fish well deserved few small cod, pouting,etc hard fishing for wrecking lads done well, not too many snap offs! On the way home ended up on the Newarp to finish up with a tope of 18 lb for Nigel and 20lb few minutes later for Matthew a great day in all really. Big thanks again to Mark, all the lads , Tim,Matthew,Paul,Gary,Nigel,Tony,Andy,Kerian, and Terry was much appreciated and also for washing down to ! Top marks men, look forward to having you onboard soon. All the best. Jon. High Flyer.

    Report on-board Spot On!

    Spot on had a weekends fishing on 24th and 25th August, wind to be fair was not the best with the weather man getting things wrong, still we didn't let this bother us when we headed out in search of Bass on Saturday and we were soon bringing up 4-7 bass per drift, all were caught on lures as live baiting would have been a bit hectic with having 11 anglers on the boat, the guys managed 65 bass in total with the biggest only being 6lb 9oz caught by Charlie morgan on the last drift of the day.
    I would like to say thanks for the guys for fishing for sport and returning over 30 fish.

    Sunday saw slightly calmer winds and we headed out for a fun day in search of all sorts, we started on the bass again and took 4 fish on 5 drifts, we then decided to head inshore on the reefs and drop the anchor, we were blessed with a great species hunt with a total of 12 species being landed which included the following:
    Black Bream, Bass, Conger eel, Cuckoo wrasse, Thornback ray, Tub gurnard, Whiting, Mackerel, Scad, Pouting, Dogfish and Pollock.

    Pictured is Saturdays crowd with the few Bass they kept for the plate after returning over 30 fish.

  • 26/08/2013 Fishing Report by nick smith on Samuel Irvin 3 (Dartmouth, Devon)

    26 Aug 2013 by nick smith

    Report on-board Samuel Irvin 3

    Target species was to be big blonde rays, we set of at 8am and within 10 minutes were all dropping feathers to get fresh bait. The mackerel were plentiful and only 15 feet down, so was a simple case of dropping down and stopping at the end of the leader.
    Within half hour of leaving harbor we were anchoring up and dropping our baits down for the rays. We were all using 30/50lb class rods, mainly to counter the 2lb weights that were needed in such a strong tide to hold bottom which is a must for the ray fishing. The business end was a 6/0 - 7/0 hook fished either single or pennel style, attached to a 5 foot long 80lb trace. Bait was a whole squid and half a mackerel fillet (length ways) or just the mackerel fillet, the fillet being only hooked once to trail and flap in the tide.
    Within 10 minutes we had our first ray that took nearly 15 minutes to land even with the heavy gear. The fishing continued like this for the rest of the morning and into the early afternoon with over 40 blonde rays being landed with severel pb's being beaten and the biggest ray topping 28lb.
