    Report on-board Silver Spray II

    As the days get colder it signals the end of all the long range stuff for a month or two until the spurdogs arrive at the end of December. Our last shark trip of the year was a success producing a nice porbeagle of 110lb for Adrian Black. It was caught in fairly shallow water so put up a very energetic scrap. This year we put plenty of time and effort into developing our shark fishing and it paid off well as we averaged over one fish per trip; if you had offered me that at the start of the year I would have bitten your hand off. Biggest porbeagle went 250lb with a nice average of around the 100lb mark. The highlight was seeing the two big thresher sharks both estimated at around 450lb, an absolute adrenaline rush to see these fish jumping around in the water. Inshore we have started our winter fishing at anchor which will be our main focus for a while. We have had our first cod and also pollock and some nice rays. There are rather a lot of congers out on the ground at the moment which does make it difficult to keep bait down for sensible periods of time. Hopefully they will get bored and move on before December. Our trips to Alderney and Guernsey are starting to fill up so make sure to book up soon to avoid disappointment.
