A very warm day. Water was clear so went to get some mackerel. We had a lot of activity from Topeka after the mackerel on our feathers so the tope gear came out. We had six takes anPaul landed a nice 40 lb + tope after a long struggle . The fish was quickly returned to fight another day. A few drifts over wrecks produced a few small cod and Pout. Plenty to keep us busy. Watch out for the weavers..

Skippers Reponse: Good day john with the tope smashing us up great to see. And the weather played ball. Much appreciated . Jon (high flyer 2)

Thank you so much for the trip Jon.

Skippers Reponse: Thanks Terry made the best of the weather i thought, good banter as usual, ended up ok with the smoothounds turning up for us. Pleasure to have you guys onboard. Thanks bud. Jon (High Flyer 2)

As always a joy to go aboard jon works very hard to keep you on the fish all day
Despite conditions often against you we still found fish
I'd highly recommended high flyer 2 for the experienced and novice angler
Jon is very knowledgeable approachable skipper
The boat is stable and comfortable plenty of tea n coffee throughout the day makes for a great sociable day out with some great fishing to be had

Skippers Reponse: Thanks Mick very much appreciated testing job at times but theres always the kettle to soften the blow! Look forward to next one bud. Cheers jon

Great days fishing. Went to the bass banks and all on board had fish. As the tide slackened the bass went off the feed and the smoothies started biting. As the sea picked up we headed inshore more more smoothies, doggies and just when I thought I’d gotten away with it I caught my only whiting of the day.
Felt vert safe on the boat, all COVID measures in place and reduced POB to ensure social distancing.

Skippers Reponse: I didnt think you recognized me in my mask! Good day Paul i thought for the tides strength everyone done well. Nice to see you out after this lock down. Cheers Paul

First trip for me since lock down, bit of a slow start but a great afternoon. Lots of smooth hounds plus a PB for me which is always nice. Trip was full of laughter.

Bass, rays, smoothhound shark, whiting and spotted dog fish, all caught! Saw the seals, that came up to the boat! Plenty of help available for all fishermen! Nothing was too much for the skipper! Great banter, great atmosphere, great bacon butties!! Tea/coffee at the ready with chocy biscuits for the well behaved (aka - everyone) Can’t recommend highly enough! Certainly a trip that would suit anyone - experienced or not!!! I have Booked another trip with 5 others already! Looking forward to another fantastic and rewarding day out!!
Well done!!

Skippers Reponse: Thanks for review Matt looking forward to next trip glad to be of service nice to have feedback we all try to please fish a bonus!!! Thanks again. Jon

2nd trip since lock down. Limited number on boat due to social distancing so even more space than usual. Started on bass bank in a bit of sea mist but only one bass and one Joey mackerel landed.. When tide turned we moved to another spot and almost immediately we were into smooth hounds, starry smooth hounds , doggies and one dab and only one whiting. One very decent bass was lost on the surface next to the boat. Bad luck Martin! The mist cleared and the sun shone. It was much warmer than last Sunday. All in all a very good day.

Skippers Reponse: Thanks for review John, be glad to get back to normal times! Fog a pain always hope Martin didnt swear losing decent fish!!! Cheers mate

Lovely weather flat calm sea. Best day of the week. Fishing a little bit slow but three thornbacks to 7lbs landed and returned. Two decent bass to 5.5lbs roll on 1st March and one cod . Whiting and dab made up the day. As usual plentiful tea and biscuits .

Skippers Reponse: Nice to see the bass this early John hoping the roker stay be a good season this year. Thanks for coming out mate. Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2)
