Report on-board High Flyer 2
Lovely calm weather today forcast of no wind so headed out to 10 mile bank in search of few bass in these strong tides. Started off with a few feathers as reports of Mackerel off Cromer yesterday tried few banks that always produce for me but waste of time but was worth a go. Had a couple of moves , but water made things impossible. Ended up coming in off Horsey/ Winterton to a mark i use in the summer . First fish nice bass of 46cm, followed by countless flatties of all sizes! Few keepers among them as pictured here with our two young anglers Troy and kyle, few small whiting again along with the doggies not so many today thank god! Few small smoothies aboard all still small waiting for the biggies still, big thanks to Dave and Sandy first time on the Flyer as same for Kyle,Mick,Aurther and Bob, with regulars Will,Troy and Dave Mingay much appreciated men. Ended the day up North beach with some more doggies,small whiting and codling but after 15 mins the weed killed us and we headed home. Thanks for helping washing down lads not often i get a hand its very much appreciated. Thanks for the day will see you all soon. Cheers. Jon. (High Flyer)

Report on-board High Flyer 2
Very strong tides today so decided to keep inshore in the shallower water, not far off the Yarmouth front in a few holes we found last year. The doggies made a showing most of the day not in huge numbers more of a reasonably steady trickle understandable with the tides strength. Only the one skate today picture here with Shannon nice one just over 7 pounds, did expect a few more made the mistake of moving to another area by carring out the wishes of other anglers on board who fancied a move. Wont happen again skippers know best.! Unfortunately our move cost us dearly and so lost our golden hour down to slack. Ended the day with couple of smoothies ,small whiting and codling and more doggies. Not the greatest of days but with the srong tides and moving about think we were lucky for what we got. Well done to Shannon best performer by far on the day, also to John first time on the Flyer, and the other lads from Mericks party. Big thanks for help with washing down Shannon much appreciated.

Report on-board White Maiden II
This cracking Black Bream is potentially White Maidens Fish of the Month, a nice 4lb 1oz specimen caught by first time angler Martin from London. He was with the Sigis Bank Holiday Monday crew. The big male was caught near to Christchurch Ledge on a miserable day that had rain for about 5 hours. In the conditions the lads fished well and even wanted an extra hour that I couldn't give them due to a prior arrangement. That's keen!

Report on-board Spot On!
Out wrecking with a great bunch of novice anglers who travelled down from Bristol to fish the wrecks in search of some monsters of the deep, and Spot On did not dissapoint by landing on the Cod, many drifts producing 7/8 fish until Dean thought he had snagged the wreck and low and behold it moved and after a 15 minute strruggle he moved the monster Cod away from the bottom and was shocked to see what was on the end of his 'HIRE ROD' a stunning cod of 27lb hit the net.
Thanks to the lads for saying they had more than enogh fish and enabling me to have an early finish which makes a change.
Pictured is Dean from Bristol with his PB Cod of 27lb

Fishing Report by Kevin McKie
on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)
May 2014 by Kevin McKie
Report on-board Size Matters
Species caught: Bull Huss, Cod, Dab, Dogfish, Five Bearded Rockling, Flounder, Gurnard (Gray, Tub & Red), Ling, Mackerel, Plaice, Pollack, Poor Cod, Pouting, Short Spined Scorpion Fish, Smoothound (Common & Starry), Thornback Ray, Tope, Weaver and Whiting.
Due to the algae bloom, May started off quite slow but as the weeks went on the fishing got better and better. Most of the algae had gone by the last week of May and we started to see lots of dolphins, porpoise and seals. Fishing inshore was very good with a fish a drop 90% of the time; offshore the fishing was steady and the mackerel started to arrive in good numbers.
Notable Charters:
23/05/14 - A group of individuals had booked to go wreck fishing but with the weather conditions off-shore was not an option so I asked the 9 lads if they fancied going after Smoothound, Rays and Bass. Only 4 of the lads where up for it so the rest of them rebooked to go wrecking and I took the 4 lads out and what a day they had! It was a fish a cast from start to finish. Here's what they caught:
19 Smoothound to 6lb
40+ Codling to 4lb 6oz (mostly undersize)
5 Thornback Rays to 4lb,
Along with Plaice, Flounder, Dab, Whiting and Dogfish. Not a bad day between 4 anglers.
24/05/14 - I had 8 individuals booked on for the day. I suggested to go for the Smoothounds again and they were all up for it! Here is what they caught:
30+ Smoothound to 6lb 3oz
2 Bass to 2lb 12oz
3 Thornback Ray to 4lb
And lots of Whiting Dabs and Dogfish.
Fish of the month goes to Mark with an 11lb 8oz Thornback Ray caught on a whole Mackerel while fishing for Tope off-shore. This was not the biggest fish caught in May but it's the first double figure Ray this year on Brigand. Sadly it is a very poor photograph of the Ray - it has it's wigs folded in and it doesn't give it much scale because Mark himself is 6ft 7inches tall! The Ray was safely returned. View Boats Page
