Fishing Report by Kevin McKie
on Size Matters (Craobh Haven, Argyll & Bute)

Report on-board Size Matters
Species caught: Cod, Dab, Thornback Ray, Whiting.
January has been the best month so far for winter Cod fishing on the Mersey. We have seen some very good catches of Cod, big Whiting, Dabs, and the odd Thornback Ray. We only had one bad day in January that was down to the weather conditions on the day and not being able to present the baits correctly on the seabed. With the Cod being late arrivals this season, we expect February to continue the current trend of good numbers and decent sized fish.
Notable Charters:
January 8th saw the biggest Cod landed on Brigand so far this season; a nice fish of 12lb 2oz. On that day we also had another 10 Cod from 2lb 8oz to 4lb 8oz, along with plenty of whiting and dabs.
January 24th was a good day to be on the Mersey. Eight anglers on-board who managed to land a total of 23 Cod from 2lb 8oz to 5lb 8oz, along with the ever present whiting and dabs.
On January 25th the good sport continued from the previous day, landing a total of 14 Cod from 3lb to 4lb 8oz; and the lads were kept busy with small codling, whiting and dabs.
The Fish of the Month goes to Mark Sweeney for his 12lb 2oz Cod, caught on January 8th. Mark wins a free individual charter courtesy of Brigand Charters. Congratulations, Mark! View Boats Page

Report on-board Mistress
Managed to sneak a day in on Saturday between the bad weather days we have been getting here at whitby recently.
We went uptiding again as its has been fishing well, the tides wee small but the last bit of sea we had left plenty of colour so hopes wrre running high.
we had a slow start but persevered and moved a few times finding a few fish each spot.
The biggest fish was a 17lb Ling today which fell to local lad Niki on his 2nd ever boat trip,
we also had cod upto 9lb 12oz, and a good few fish in the 6lb bracket too.
best bait was worm and squid, but cart took a few too.
Pictured is Niki with his Ling - well done on your new PB mate! View Boats Page

Report on-board Out The Blue
Another year another boat - those of you that have fished with Terry on the Raptor in the past may be intrigued to try out his latest aquisition. This stunning traditional Lochin 33 'Out The Blue'. She may not have the speed of the Raptor but she still pushes on at a fair lick and is capable of speeds up to 22 knots. As you can see from the photographs she has a very large open deck with plenty of room for landing those big Blues.
I am taking bookings as from the end of February. View Boats Page

Report on-board Cleveland Princess
With very poor forecast for the boys from the RAF it was touch and go if we got away at all today with a strong s/easterly and the sea coming from the same direction there was only one place to fish off the Claremont pier in 23ft of water it was bearable while we were in the lee of the boat but when the tide started to flood it changed quickly but I said try and stick it out as when the tide makes a bit the fish will come over the top of the bank and feed in the gully that we were sitting in and they did we had 30 cod all around the 8-10inch mark and one nice fish of 3lb3oz a few Whiting and Dabs made up the bag all the small cod were put back alive they were all lipped hooked,it was nice to see so many juveniles it must have been a good spawn early last year for these fish lets hope we see more of them,bp.
