  • 16/04/2014 Fishing Report by Paul Kilpatrick on Sea Otter 2 (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    16 Apr 2014 by Paul Kilpatrick

    Report on-board Sea Otter 2

    The weather recently is playing havoc but when we are able to get out the fishing is still good over the last few days the uptiding has been the option and yes its still fishing well considering its mid april we are normally right into the the wrecking by now.

    The fish arent as big as they were uptiding but the numbers are still there and the condition of codling uptidings are in slightly condition than those in the deeper water but that will all change shortly all in all its looking a grreat year on the cod here at whitby the wrecking this year looks like been a bananza.

  • 04/2014 Fishing Report by Ross Parham on Spot On! (Brixham, Devon)

    Apr 2014 by Ross Parham

    Report on-board Spot On!

    Wrecking is still good at the moment with great hard fighting Pollock that are really in great shape for the time of year, already the first few cod have been caught so they will not be long to show in numbers, Ling are still again taking lures as well as baits to give the anglers a good scrap, jumbo whiting are still being caught with 3lb+ fish being landed in numbers on all trips.

    Skerries banks now are showing good numbers of plaice with Spot On's last trip pulling out 45 fish with 30 being returned.

    Remember Spot On is Brixham's only catamaran and is the ultimate charter boat in the south west.

    Pictured is Chris Macleod with his 15lb 10oz Pollock

  • 15/04/2014 Fishing Report by Rich Ward on Shy-Torque III (Whitby, North Yorkshire)

    15 Apr 2014 by Rich Ward

    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    A big swell generated from the high winds to the North of us came through last night and has somewhat hindered the more inshore fishing marks here at Whitby.

    However, Paul on Trot-On and ourselves with the faster boats had a run out to the wall today where our cruise was rewarded with some excellent cod fishing. Again, nothing big, but a couple of daily prize winners (1st and 3rd) on the Shy-Torque made it all worth while for the lads.

    If we have to go distance to find you a good bag of fish then that's what we will do, as ever!!!

    Cheers

    Rich.

  • 14/04/2014 Fishing Report by jon old on High Flyer 2 (Great Yarmouth, Norfolk)

    14 Apr 2014 by jon old

    Report on-board High Flyer 2

    Just a quick report so as to bring us up to date, had alot of small fish previous month, tiny undersize ,
    codling, pesky whiting stealing the bait and dabs a plenty when the fishing slowed up. We have persevered over these weeks and now the end is in sight the start of spring!!!!! The spotty dogs are back inshore, few skate now showing up along with a few early smoothounds so my guess is after easter its all forward steaming. A couple of decent bass been caught inshore as well, still patchy fishing but it always is at the start
    On the commercial side our longlining taking huge numbers of spurdogs in the deep water all returned as by law protected, will make great sport on the charter boat if we can find them on the day. Nice few blondes showing up too, but mostly looking forward to the tope arriving when we will be doing specialist trips, please book early as the list is quite long at the moment and not forgetting this year we will be doing more evening trips as Dave Pike has now joined the team now doubling our boat cover. Dave is keen to hear from anyone interested in long range bass trips obviously prices go up due to fuel costs but thats expected. looking forward to the summer season hoping you can join us look forward to hearing from you. Until then, tight lines everyone.
    Jon. (High Flyer)

  • 13/04/2014 Fishing Report by David Hancock on Excel 2 (Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire)

    13 Apr 2014 by David Hancock

    Report on-board Excel 2


    Great weather and great catches , what more could we ask for ? Long may it last !

    Plenty of skate inshore with more and more Bass and hounds showing every day as the crab moult starts. For the skate herring and blueys are still the top baits. Obviously peeler crab is the favourite natural bait for the hounds and bass inshore.

    The offshore trips have been productive with some great catches of 50+ cod and pollock in a day.
    Old methods such as pirks and feathers work well for the more powerfully built anglers and shads/Redgills are working well for the more sporting chaps !

    Pictured is Will on his 1st wrecking trip with a fine 14 lb 10 oz pollock he caught, well done.

    Keep it tight,

    Dave.
