The Mackerel were back on the inshore marks again yesterday and with just one drift next to the bouy we were good to go.
However, it was a very slow start to the day, mainly down to the amount of seals we had on the grounds and after three or four drifts for nothing much at all we decided to run away from the black beasties!
The next stop was seal free thank goodness and the lads enjoyed two or three decent drifts with some nice Cod and Ling boated. A couple of doubles boated there too which is always good to see. Some nice Cod to just shy of 9.5lbs off that bit of ground.
That strip of ground did dry up on us eventually so we moved to another small ledge on the 8 mile ground.
It fished well too with no seals insight at all.
The baited rigs fished the best without a doubt. The Shads struggling in comparison.
Two of our very regular anglers Bill Barraclough and Paul Mawson fishing the best on the boat.
Before yesterday’s trip Paul was holding the fish of the month for August with a nice Ling of 12lb 2oz.
Bill overtook him at lunchtime with a nice Ling that was nudging 14lbs and went into the lead!
At 1.0pm Paul took hold of a fairly heavy looking fish and when boated, I figured it looked heavier than Bill’s! It was actually longer too.
We had to wait until we returned to harbour for some calm water to verify who’s was the better fish.
At the dockside, Fergus our crewman weighed the pair and they both topped out at 13lb 15oz!
Twins!! Unbelievable!!
I suggested that if no one took a better fish before the end of the month, they could share the free trip to which they both agreed.
Well done lads. Some excellent fishing from you both as ever!!
Fantastic day with constant banter and giggles!
The September competition is creeping up on us fast. 9th - 24th inc.
If you fancy a go at the £1000.00 first prize in that, drop me line via the text, Watsapp or mobile. Email too.

Hopefully you can enjoy some of the summer weather we are currently having. It certainly makes a nice change to the very unsettled summer so far.
View Boats Page
Thankfully we haven't had to cancel much at all. The fishing has been very good, we benifit from using a big catamaran and have lots of sheltered marks available to fish.
There have been some quality fish around too. There are lots of schoolie bass inshore this time of year. Often we have seen 50 or more in just a short session on feathers and lures. These have produced some sizable bass along with some very decent fish. We had several trips where fish of 5, 6 or even 7.8lb showed. These are cracking fish to catch anywhere let alone the estuaries! Along with the bass we have seen some smooth-hounds and rays. The rays have surprised us by their numbers considering the time of year. This is probably a result of the cooler weather we have been experiencing as the dogfish have moved back in already too. Fishing these inshore marks also produces other lesser seen species such as eels and Dover sole. As I often say, I enjoy the challenge of finding a few decent fish when conditions are against us in areas I might not otherwise fish. It's also very rewarding to see the experience pay off with good results on what could be a hard day. Fair play to all of the anglers who have joined us. Even in some grim conditions they tried their hardest and caught me some fish. The right attitude makes all the difference as always.
Hopefully we get some more settled weather like over the coming months but even if we don't I am sure we will be catching fish.
I have spaces over the coming weeks so get in touch if you want to join us please.

Report on-board Sea Urchin IIl
After a ten day layoff for big Spring tides and poor weather, we were back at it on Sunday.
View Boats Page
We planned to spend the day on both wrecks and rough ground. A fresh wind to start the day made the wrecks unviable, so we ran to an area of rough ground at five miles. The majority went down with baited Hokkai’s and we started to pick away nicely at some small Codling. Some keepers, but plenty of throwbacks.
The wind eased significantly after an hour or so, and the conditions stayed fairly settled for the rest of the day. We fished rough ground and also wreck hopped around slack, but we couldn’t put up anything other than small Codling and Ling. The biggest fish being a Codling of around the 5lb mark to Andy Collinge.
Today was a complete contrast and after seeing how much rain was forecast, I put my waterproof pants on!! For once, the forecast was right and Alan with his group of friends had the boat for the day and got a bit wet!! But to be fair, that didn’t mater a bit. We initially had a couple of drifts on a wreck, but the wind over the tide made the drift too quick at 1.4 knots, so rough ground it was.
Firstly the three mile ground produced nicely for half a dozen drifts. We took plenty of Codling and Ling each run up to 7lb. The drift speed built each run and when the drift got to 1.9 knots the bites stopped, so we ran to the seven mile ground. With a better drift speed and a perfect drift line, we clumped them for a couple of hours. Some anglers taking 3 fish in a drift! Nothing huge was landed, but there were some quality clean fish caught.
Biggest Codling to Alan at 8lb 12oz and biggest Ling to Joe at 9lb 4oz. All the usual suspects produced today, Squid, Mackerel, Hokkai’s, Muppet traces and Shads.
All in all a brilliant day out in brilliant company.UPCOMING INDIVIDUAL SPACES ONBOARD Sea Urchin IIl

Report for yesterday’s trip.
View Boats Page
In a word, crap!!
A very similar route to the past 4 days where the fishing has been ok but for some reason the little critters weren’t interested at all.
We even struggled with the Mackerel yesterday with only 25 or so for the bait stocks (which is enough to be fair) but a few more would have been nicer.
The white fish were very lethargic and being finicky, almost like they weren’t in the least bit interested. Nibbling the Shad tails and letting go all the time. The baited rigs being taken and let go too. The mad world of angling!
Nevertheless, the lads had an enjoyable ride out and as always the banter was on top form!!
Thanks to Glenn, Andy and Nick for making my lazy (can’t get out of bed!) crewman’s day, a miserable one! LOL!! Kids eh!!
Tally for the day, around 15 white fish to keep and the chuck backs.
Nick Ball taking the heaviest of the day with a Ling a shade under 7.5lbs.
Cheers
