Another good day out on Highflyer 2. 9 thornbacks landed and retuned. Unusual for January. Martin skipper today showed us all how it’s done and caught couple of keeper codling about time, as well as pouting and a spotty dog another surprise for January. Sea was flat calm with plenty of tea and bacon butties a good day all round
Skippers Reponse: Good day all round John many thanks for review hopefully be able to join you guys soon. Leave me something to catch"! Cheers Jon (High Flyer 2")

Family outing consisting of my dad, stepdad, stepbro and myself (yes, I know). 2 experienced and 2 newbies out for the day. Martin was an excellent skipper. Chatty, funny and knew his way around a kettle! Endless bags of rich, sugary goodies and homemade cakes his wife had made, made for a pleasant and hyperactive day. A very well equipped boat. I can't say I've ever been charter fishing when you can sit down on a padded bench and watch your rod... It was like Cunard, I tell you. Professional rod rests, so your precious isn't swept away by the one that got away. There was 6 on the boat (7 including the skipper) and there was plenty of room. I didn't notice anyone getting tangled up with anyone else. A few birds nests from the newbies. Seals sighted during a beautiful sunset, made for a very pleasant day. Unfortunately, the big Cod Martin ordered didn't show up, but there was a plethora of Whiting, a November Skate, a small dab (or flounder), I couldn't tell, it was teeny. Even a couple of Codling. No shopping trollies or C&A bags insight. I'm used to pee'ing off the front of boats, but High Flyer 2 had a very nice toilet to attend to after the 2 dozen cups of tea I sank. Extremely good value for money for a full days fishing. All of the aforementioned was included within the price and bait also! Rag/lug/and frozen baits (a bit cold for feathering for anything at that time of year). Martin was well experienced & knowledgeable. A safety briefing before setting off and endless laughs throughout the day.
I will definitely be back.
Thank you, we all had a cracking day!Skippers Reponse: Many thanks Drew for review its much appreciated, glad you enjoyed the day hope to see you guys again soon. Cheers Bud. Jon (High Flyer 2)

Lyndsey Kay (25/08/2019)
Had a cracking day out today to celebrate 5th wedding anniversary with the hubby and a couple of random mates lol Skipper Jon was as awsome as ever, tea/coffee on tap, CHOCOLATE biscuits etc and rubbish jokes, stories and very tall tails!.. moved the boat all around to find the fishes and we were not disappointed! Dogs, smoothies, pouting, mackerel, tings, tope, star fish, weavers, launce and even a couple of whelks! great day out, great range of fish, wreaks, sand banks, deep water, in shore you name it we did it! and I suppose the skipper is alright lol. (he is awsome) wont hesitate to help and advise especially if you are a newbie, he will make it the best day you've ever had! Thank you! (his glamorous assistant Pete was amazing too!) (his glamorous assistant may vary from person to person, trip to trip, but he chooses wisely ) THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Skippers Reponse: Thanks Lyndsey was a most enjoyable day

Brilliant day, very strong wind but Jon put in on marks that we could fish comfortably. I caught plenty of fish - smoothies, doggies, dab, whiting and 2 skate biggest 8lb. Plenty of tea coffee and banter. Can’t wait to get out again.
Skippers Reponse: Our lovely british summer! For the conditions we done well i thought Paul. Must get a calm day soon!!! Cheers Jon
