    Spring is here well at least it was for one day, 5mph wind and birght sunshine all day, so off we went over the horizon to fish some new wrecks no boats to be seen or land, the long steam out payed off with some fine
    winter pollack up to 16lb 8oz and some personal best, despite the very small ebb tide the wrecks fished well.
    As you can see from the picture big smiles from my customers and some fine fish, caught on long flowing
    trace with shads and sidewinders and the good old redgills.

    The wreck fishing season started today with a choppy day out in mid channel, drifting over wrecks with shads and sidewinders, not the best of conditons with wind and tide the drifts overs the wrecks was about 4knots, but the hardened wind swept wet crew still managed to catch some nice plump winter bass and pollack, so the year has got of to a not to bad start, some spaces left on some of my weekend trips,so hurry up before they go.
    Tight lines to all.

    First Class Boat. First Class Skipper. First Class Fishing. First Class Day Out!

    Last Friday (July 23rd) was our first outing with Kurt, his deck-hand Charlie and

    the Yellow Fin Boat. We were a party of five, including my Brother-in-Law from

    Canada, who is a lake fisherman, and Chris, our next-door neighbour who has never

    slung a hook in his life. If you book this boat (and you'd be a fool not to) take

    time to arrive for bacon butties (or more) at the cafe and a visit to the 'Newhaven

    Angler' for your bait and lures, where you get a great reception from both shops.

    Other supplies are availbale from the convenience store on the same parade. It

    really is a 'one-stop shop' for everything you need for a great day out.

    Leaving shortly before 8, we had caught our fresh mackerel bait by 9:30 and were on

    the way to our first mark. It wasn't long until, thanks to Kurt's expert knowledge

    of the area, before we were 'in the fish'. One of the other Lad's, Tim, caught an

    amazing 60lb, 7ft long Conger Eel which had us all leaping around the boat once it

    was landed and photographed before release to breed another day. It wasn't long

    before Rob, from our party, caught a very handsome 35lb Conger and Chris, our

    newbie, opened his own sea-fishing account with a respectable Pollack of around 7lb.

    I was thrilled to bits to hook my own personal Pollock of around 10lb.

    Including a handful of very meaty Bream, our total catch gave us over 50lb of

    table-ready fish after gutting and a very enjoyable BBQ was had by all and the WAGS

    of the Hunter Gatherers. The party went on long into the small hours and most of the

    talk was about booking the Yellow Fin for our next trip.

    Don't bother looking for another boat if you're fishing off Newhaven. Kurt Lander

    and the Yellow Fin is Numero Uno. It's the tops. End Of.

    3 Jun 2010 by Darren Chisholm

    A great evenings fishing with one of Newhavens finest skippers, Kurt. Species caught were mackeral, whiting, black bream, dabs and plaice which was a great return as we couldn't go too far due to lumpy sea conditions. But Kurt still managed (as always) to put us on the fish.

    Thankfully for a change the English weather actually let the Send seacrew out for a day's fishing. We all had a good day catching pollock from 7lb to the monster I yanked up, being 19lb 2oz. What a fish. All the fish were caught on side winder lures and, living dangerously staying as close to the wreck as possible, not getting too sentimental about your tackle, and willing to wave it goodbye! The fish I caught had to go down to my local pub to claim the £20 bet I had that I would not blank. He had to pay up really, the turd! Kurt laid on the tea, coffee and sausage rolls as always. What a day. Tight lines people!!!

    Skippers Reponse: Thanks Pete glad you all had a good day, hope the weather is good for your next trip.

  • 5-star dave roberts (09/02/2013)

    My third trip on yellowfin a long way out first stop and a big fat 20 pound cod caught and some pollock,moved to a different wreck and a 18 pound pollock caught and some smaller ones then off to another wreck where more pollock and cod was caught, a long day but a good one, skipper needs some singing lessons, but nice coffee and pies, made a effort to give a good day.
