  • 01/2012 Fishing Report by Nigel Hodge on Wave Chieftain (Falmouth, Cornwall)

    Jan 2012 by Nigel Hodge

    The 2011 boat fishing at Falmouth will be one to remember, an early run of Whiting with fish up to 5lb, Haddock up to 6lb and Mackerel to 2lb was a great way to start the year, The Pollack season finished before it started, probably due to over fishing of this now sort after fish, however a few good hits on the wrecks saw fish up to 18lb and was helped by some great Ling with the best topping 38lb. We struggled to see any big Congers this year with the best hitting 75lb, however plenty of eels in the 40 –50lb bracket gave many an angler a good scrap and were all returned alive. Cod are now being caught daily with the best hitting 26lb but plenty of 5-8lb fish always happy to take your bait. Inshore marks have produced some great sport with Bull Huss to 14lb and plenty of rays up to 8lb. The Shark fishing season started early this year and ran up to November , all were returned alive with the best hitting 155lb on the scales and over 40 fish making the 100lb mark and plenty of Garfish hitting the 2.5lb. The season closed with a heavy run of Squid and Bass to 6lb and my fisher wife hooked her self a fantastic Red Gurnard of 3.2.3lb setting a new World record !! ( And well deserved ). What a great way to end the season,looking forward to 2012

  • 5-star rich livingstone (01/10/2011)

    Have been fishing with Nigel 5 times now and all i can say it is a pity he isnt closer too us as otherwise i would never spend a day on land. The boat is one of the best i have been on with all the modern cons that are needed, plus have never seen so up to date electrical equipment and i build boats for a living. The skipper makes the day full of knowlege and not one of these stay in the wheelhouse skippers that you tend to find so much these days. Have had some utterly amazing days out including a 40lb blue shark on a 5-15g spinning rod (in the end 9 caught that day), evening trips with a old boot caught, wrecking trip with some fantastic ling, pollack and whiting caught and our last trip seeing 14 blue sharks to 154lb caught, measured, recorded and released in 1 day. If you want a great day out use wave chieftain its well worth it

  • 5-star Robert Shotter (10/01/2012)

    First trip of the New Year and a fantastic day out in Falmouth Bay Not only plenty of Mackerel about but a good run of small Haddock some big Whiting and a few decent Pollack

    Skippers Reponse: Pollack are running thick and fast as we speak..plenty of 20lb fish on the wrecks !!
