Skippers Reponse: Hard day today barry in these big tides think we earned every fish. Day to remember for gareth especially! Looking forward to tope trip mate good to see you all enjoyable day. Cheers mate. Jon

Great day on the high flyer. Started off steaming out to see if we could get any early mackerel or tope. Unfortunately too much colour in the water. Fished several marks and caught sand eels, smoothies, doggies, flat ties and the ubiquitous whiting. Great knowledge from skipper Jon and his young relief skipper Chris.

Skippers Reponse: Cheers paul was good to have a bit of feathering again soon b mackerel bashing time. Was great day great weather for once! Jon.

Yet another good day out on High Flyer, my third trip out twelve days! A short motor out to the first mark,as the fish Jon knew to be close to the shore. Again some new faces and some familiar ones, three guy's from Cambridgeshire, new to sea fishing were soon up and running with Jon and "old hand" Chris's ( sorry for the "old" Chris ) helpful experience. Bathed in glorious sunshine, with a gentle breeze, Chris ( the "old hand" ☺ ) landed the first of the Skate of the day ( all Skate returned, nice to witness ) unfortunately as the tide run strengthened we were plagued by that very fine sea weed that forms small balls on the line, I'm sure that it has some fancy Latin name,but l gave it some plain English ones of my own !! We moved to our only second mark of the day, again Jon's local knowledge, weed free, producing some good sport for the Cambridgeshire lads and getting their personal sweepstake under way. Slack tide saw a short run of Smoothhounds before wind over tide conditions requiring that we should call an end to the day's play. Thanks to Jon and Chris for the up tide instruction, as I usually dangle over the blunt end for tangle free fishing, Cheers guys . Lee Weston

Another excellent day out on High Flyer, with a good number of quality fish caught, weather was unexpectedly dry, sunny and warm which contributed to a fabulous day out. Skipper was on form with plenty of banter, tea and biscuits. Thank you Jon;
