  • 11/2014 Fishing Report by Ian Goller on Escape (Brighton, East Sussex)

    Report on-board Escape

    Well the break in the weather gave us the chance to get out and chase some Cod.
    There are a lot of them out there at the moment, although they are mainly just sizeable.
    The odd better cod is being caught if you can get through the hoppers.
    The Roker are also still being caught, along plenty of good sized Whiting, but we wont mention the millions of Leopard sharks.All in all there is some very good sport to be had at the moment so get out there and make the most of it.

    Nov 2014 by Colin Penny

    Report on-board Flamer IV

    NOVEMBER 2014
    Due to an indifferent weather forecast the planned wrecking trip was changed to a Reef/Bank trip and the anglers were not dissapointed as numerous Congers were caught along with Blonde and Undulate Rays,Tope,Whiting and the usual Pouts and Dogfish. Russell Salmon did particularly well catching lots of Congers and two Blonde Rays.Russell broke two Personal Bests with a 42Ib Conger and a 21Ib 8oz Blonde Ray.Russell was using a Sakuma 4/0 circle hook on a flowing trace with a white muppett and Squid and Mackerel cocktail bait. Paul Garrett from Swansea caught two new species and set Personal Bests with a 13Ib 8oz Undulate and a 20Ib Tope. Garry Braund from Bristol caught his Personal Best Blonde Ray which weighed in at 17Ib 8oz.All the fish were released alive. Russell Salmon is pictured with his PB 21Ib 8oz Blonde Ray.
    The Reef/Bank fishing can be really good at this time of year,So Don't Miss Out.
    WHITING - the Whiting are now being caught.
    DECEMBER - DON'T Forget to book your Winter trips for Whiting,Cod,Rays etc.There are also Places/Trips available between Christmas and New Year.Don't Miss Out.

    Top day out with Kev yet again, good banter with the lads fish straight from the off accompanied with plenty of tea and coffee as well as a great bowl off hot food too!
    Thanks for a great day out definitely one to recommend, this skipper is not a kipper he doesn't stop working from the off and you're guaranteed a great day out and plenty of fish.

    Had a great day out on Saturday the 11th of October with with John on the High Flyer My first time out with the skipper with my Dad.

He was helpful and and provided a good flow of drinks chocolate biscuits and top cup a soups,The boat was clean, fast and plenty of space for everyone. We had a steady stream of fish all day. The company and banter was great all day it was a shame that Dave kept having to show Jon what cod looked like!!! A first class day and for sure we will be back again thanks a ton Jon and look forward to next time. If you get the chance book up with Jon you will not be disappointed.

  • 31/10/2014 Fishing Report by Kevin McKie on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

    31 Oct 2014 by Kevin McKie

    Report on-board Size Matters

    Species caught.
    Conger Eel, Whiting, Pouting, Cod, Pollack, Ling, Mackerel, Sprat, Thornback Ray, Dogfish, Bullhuss, Dab, Gray Gurnard and Poggie (hook nose).

    October was a very good month for Brigand, offshore we where still catching all the summer species. Inshore the cod season had started with a bang, seeing catches of up to 32 sizeable cod per trip, along with thornback rays, whiting, dabs and dogfish.
    On one trip in the Mersey in October, we caught a very rare species of fish. Never seen on brigand before it's called a Poggie, also known as a hook nose. It just goes to show you never known what you are going to catch, that's the thing I love about fishing.

    Fish of the month goes to Francis Warilow, from Liverpool with his 25lb 8oz Conger Eel, that was returned to fight another day. Well done Francis you win a free individual charter to use when ever you wish.

    Notable charters.
    On the 16th, we had seven anglers from Taskers angling onboard for there monthly trip. The lads fancied having a go for the cod and rays in the Mersey, they caught.
    26 Cod from 2lb to 3lb 3oz,
    6 Thornback Ray to 8lb,
    Whiting, Dab and Dogfish.

    On the 30th, we had a full boat of individual anglers onboard. I told the lads the Mersey was fishing well, for cod and rays. We didn't get many rays, but we did get into the cod. Here is what they caught.
    32 Cod to 3lb 10oz,
    2 Thornback Ray 9lb 8oz,
    Whiting and Dogfish,

    Regards

  • 05/11/2014 Fishing Report by Bob Marshall on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)

    5 Nov 2014 by Bob Marshall

    Report on-board Duke IV

    Bring plenty of bait as the sea off Ramsgate is brim full of fish, with as usual lots of Doggies along with Whiting, many being classed as Channel Whiting so up to 2lb in weight.
    Codling have arrived with fish in the 1-3lb range along with a few better size fish.
    The Skate that have been around all summer are still here with fish up to l0lb fairly common. Last Saturdays group of individuals had a good day with all species with Kym an accomplished Carp angler leading the way with 3 Skate up to 9lb l2oz, a female Skate that Kym chose to release.
    Bass and Smoothounds are passing through our area on their way South, always a welcome catch although we are concentrating more on the Cod that are the target species on most anglers wish list.
    Bait, squid and lugworm for Cod with herring chunks for Skate and Whiting.

  • 30/10/2014 Fishing Report by Colin Cooter on Emma Jayne (Chichester, West Sussex)

    30 Oct 2014 by Colin Cooter

    Report on-board Emma Jayne

    The weather was slightly drizzly as we left our winter mooring in Chichester Marina but it definitely didn't dampen the spirit to get out and catch some decent fish.

    The whiting are in and was a great start to the day getting a few of them in for the lads dinners. The whiting were also accompanied by a couple of nice rays, one small-eyed and one thornback.

    On the change of the tide we went out by the Nab Tower off the Isle of Wight to see if we could catch the real target species of the day. Sure enough the best catch of the day was reeled in by Steve Harber who got his prize of a 10lb 5oz cod; he was cuffed and the envy of the boat! All went home smiling as no one was left empty handed.

    The cod have arrived so come on lads, lets see if we can beat Steve's catch!
