Fishing Report by Pete Rose
on Sea Urchin IIl (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
Aug 2009 by Pete Rose
Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
This weekend has been a cracker for big cod, on Friday regular local lads Karl and Ken came out with a small group hoping for a few fish and a few personal best’s were well beaten, during the morning mostly small cod and ling were coming aboard and mid day things slowed down because of the size of the tides I guess, then the afternoon brought a second slack and with the sea urchin positioned over a favorite wreck of mine Ken was the first to hit into a fine cod around 12lbs each drift produced more cod around double figures, I then quickly moved the boat over another good wreck which likewise was producing good size cod the last fish of the day fell to Karl which was a personal best for him a cracking cod of 15lb which made his and my day as he only really took up sea fishing last year and has really put the effort in which finally paid off well done mate,
Saturday was a similar day with another local group who were newcomers to my boat and had not been sea fishing for many many years fishing was similar to the previous day with the best times when the tide eased and in the afternoon things really picked up with double figure cod coming aboard now after relating the previous days tale of the 15lb cod one of the anglers Jim I think, hit into a really good fish and he was using one of my hire rods and reels I have started to guess quite acuratley to the size of fish an angler is winding in by the bend in the rod and I said to him take your time this is a nice fish ( in my head I put it around 13lb or so) and as it came up through the crystal clear water I thought good guess until I realised it was still 40 foot down as soon as it hit the surface I knew it was the biggest cod we had seen this year and on the new boat as well a record for the sea urchin and Jim just over 18lb on the boat scales

Report on-board Galloper
after a short holiday abroad we have returned to the reiable thames for some fun summer fishing. we had 8 hire rods out saturday, some of which had been before but most were complete begginers. we had a good day with great weather and a few fish to boot. although we had no massive fish we did have a few smoothounds around the doubles and the biggest was 10.8lbs. by the end of the day the lads had enjoyed the fishing wich was at times quite hectic when we had a 3 and 4 smoothounds on at once. its always nice to see these fish with the average being around 7-8lbs they fight hard and are easily returned alive. we were pleased at the end of the day with 20 smoothounds to show for our efforts. over the next month expect to see more smoothounds, bass and roker aswell as the return of the codling in the not too distant future.

Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)
9 Aug 2009 by Bob Marshall
Report on-board Duke IV
Fishing remains generally good despite the unseasonable weather, the wind stirs up the water, that’s not good for the mackerel, making it difficult getting them for bait and the Skate love fresh mackerel. Despite this we are still getting a few! Bass fishing taking off now with some good fish being taken lugworm the bait of choice with mackerel fished hard on the bottom for the big girls. Chris landing this nr double on Duke IV using mackeral for bait.
Whiting are still around along with Pouting and the odd Codling inshore.
September usually sees an influx of pin whiting, favourite food of the Bass. When the right weather, tides and clear water come together we can enjoy some excellent fishing with pirk and hokkai lures over the rough ground and banks.
The Hounds will be heading back out of the estuary, somewhat larger than when they arrived due to a summer of crab crunching, giving some excellent although sporadic fishing. This winter could be good for the Cod provided they have survived the summer with last years 4lb average now into double figures and hopefully some 20lb’ers and maybe the odd thirty? Just like it used to be! View Boats Page

Report on-board Flamer IV
FLAMER III - JULY REPORT - well what a month for wet and windy weather and I thought summer was here.The month of July has been like this for three years in a row. Any way when we did get out to sea,some suberb fish were caught especialy flatfish and big bream.In early July the cod fishing on the wrecks was still good.The reefs/banks produced plenty of tope,rays,bream etc.The Shambles Bank was very good for turbot and brill along with a few bass and cod.The mussel beds threw up some superb plaice in the 4 to 5Ib plus range including one of 6Ib 10oz.43 different species have been caught on Flamer III in 2009 so far.
I had some excellent entry's for July Flamer fish of the month and decided to award it to James Mccarthy for his superb 5Ib Black Bream.
Note:Quite a few groups did 2,3,4 and 5 days trips aboard Flamer III in July and have all re - booked for 2010.There is something to be said for a few days fishing out of Weymouth as it offers all sorts of fishing and plenty of different species.If you fancy it in 2010 - then contact me a.s.a.p.

Report on-board Flamer IV
Sheffield based GLODEN PLOVER SAC came to Weymouth in July 2008 to go out on Flamer III but the weather was awful and they were blown out each day.They returned in July 2009 and the weather was a little better but still very breezy and they did manage to get out for some flatty fishing.Their patience was rewarded with three flatty's in two drifts on the Famous Shambles Bank.First Christopher Lee landed a brill then on the very next drift Dave Roberts landed a turbot shortly followed by a brill for Richard Charlesworth.All the lads had never caught turbot or brill before.The successful bait was mackerel strip.The lads have re booked for 2010 with the hope that they get some summer weather then,third time lucky I guess.The happy guys are pictured with their flatty catch.

Report on-board Flamer IV
BEGINNERS LUCK - Andy Rollett age 37 a pub manager from Bath on his first ever fishing trip landed a superb plaice weighing 6Ib 10oz while drifting a mussel bed.The big plaice came up no bother until about 30 foot from the boat then it woke up and gave Andy some heart stopping moments as it made several runs for freedom.
Andy was using borrowed tackle from his pal Alan Curtis who had invited him along.The successful bait was ragworm and squid strip presented on a two hook flatty trace with lots of attractor beads and some small blades on.Andy also caught a 4Ib cod and some black bream earlier in the day.This plaice is the biggest caught on Flamer III this year.Andy is pictured with his big plaice catch.
Tom Songhurst from Sussex caught his personal best plaice weighing 4Ib 4oz just minutes before Andy struck into his big spottie. View Boats Page
