Fishing Report by Bob Marshall
on Duke IV (Ramsgate, Kent)
9 Mar 2014 by Bob Marshall
Report on-board Duke IV
The inshore fishing here at Ramsgate is now improving with quality Skate in most areas, along with plenty of Codling, these fish are small but give us hope for the future. Smoothounds, Bass and Mackerel are arriving now and will offer fine sport over the next few months. Still lots of herring showing on the sounder so plenty of fodder for the large Bass that are heading our way, always on the lookout for an easy meal!
Herring has been the bait of choice for the Skate throughout the winter but as summer moves on they will be looking for mackerel.
Squid remains a good bait for most species and the Hounds are very partial to a whole one and when the water warms sufficiently the crabs will peel giving us more bait choice!
The school Bass will be shoaling on the banks, great fun on the feathers or Hokkie lures. Clear water is a must though and the winds we are getting can stir up the water, then the humble lugworm becomes the better bait!
The wreck fishing season starts soon and we will soon be out there drift fishing jellies and shads for the Cod, Pollack and Bass.
Still some weekend dates available and each Thursday for individuals, so dust off the rods and come fishing aboard Duke IV.

on Bad Boyz VI (Holyhead, Isle of Anglesey)
Mar 2014 by Aaron Smith
Report on-board Bad Boyz VI
Bad Boyz is now out of the water for the next two weeks having her annual paint up ready for the 2014 season.
Fishing this year has been very patchy at times but plenty of Dogs, Whitting, Dabs, Huss and a few rays at anchor along with The usual congers around the wrecks to 40+lb unfortunately due to the wether we haven't managed to get out to a few of the offshore conger wrecks that are only known to bad boyz for the bigger and better fighting fish.
Wrecking trips are few and far between with dates being booked up for other types of trips but there are still a few available to head off for the Pollack and cod, don't take your time in booking these trips as they are growing ever more popular aboard bad boyz being the only vessel on the west coast of Anglesey fishing them.
Tight lines for 2014

Report on-board Mistress
we managed a day at sea again this week on a lull between weather systems!
Tony Elves fished with us the other week, enjoying his trip so much, he booked himself and his friend James on for another Trip Uptiding for the Cod.
we enjoyed steady sport most of the day, the water looked to be clearing a tad which seemed to result in the bites being a bit finicky, non the less, the lads managed about 20 codlings between them for the day all between 2lb and 4lb.
Pictured are Tony & James with a few of their fish for the day, well done men!
We have a few spaces this week, The weather forecast is looking settled and we're looking at having a crack at some early season wrecking, if youre interested drop me a line on 07977 436 903

Report on-board Ocean Warrior 3
After a few wet and windy months, Ocean Warrior 3 managed to get out to do some offshore wreck fishing.
We had an enjoyable day and found that there are some really big Pollock starting to show out on the deep water wrecks now. Chris Warner had the biggest of the day with a cracking 17lb 3oz caught on the sidewinders.
We are looking forward to getting back out to the deep water wrecks again soon.
We still have some spaces available, so why not come and join us if you fancy a day out wreck fishing. View Boats Page

Fishing Report by Ian Buckingham
on Mistress (Whitby, North Yorkshire)
1 Mar 2014 by Ian Buckingham
Report on-board Mistress
On a slow day for all the Whitby boats Rich gave his all and after much hard work got everyone onto a few fish. The bites were finnicky and the fish were very localised in tight pockets. I had a flurry of activity and got some decent codlings in a frantic period on the flood tide. My wife bagged a couple too so smiles all round.
Cheers Rich...you know we'll be back. View Boats Page
